25 new listings for me.
We’ll be having house guests again this week but I’m counting on my draft bank to carry me through, fingers crossed!
Wishing everyone a wonderful week!
25 for me despite having a house guest. Unfortunately I used up most of my draft bank to accomplish that number and now I’m scrambling this week. However our guest left today so fingers crossed…
VL: We were on the Oregon coast between Yachatz and Florence, it was pretty much the same vacation we took two years ago. The Oregon coast is wonderful!
Julie: Way to go with the estate sale finds and the listings – you’re on fire!
Amatino: Have a wonderful time with your grandson!
Wishing everyone a great week!
10 for me last week. We left for the Oregon coast on Wednesday morning and returned last night. It was lovely and cool there, we had a great time! Now back to business.
Wishing everyone a great week!
40 new listings for me. I listed more than my weekly goal to make up for the low listing number I’ll have this week, my husband and I are heading out on another short vacation trip.
Christine: I think you’re heading out for a far away vacation? Have a wonderful time!
Vintage Lacy: I’m so envious of your vintage pattern and lace haul. I’ve been getting vintage patterns on sale for five for a dollar, but free is so much better!
Julie: I hope your medical appointment is coming up soon now?
Amatino: Amazing progress on your house, congrats on getting so much accomplished!
Wishing everyone a lovely week!
25 new listings for me. I met my goal and I’ve already got a good headstart on this week. It’s all good!
Wishing everyone a wonderful week!
Grrr, I just lost my post so I’ll be more concise this time. I listed 25 items last week.
Wishing everyone a great week!
No listings for me, but I wanted to check in anyway. I was on the annual vacation we take with three other couples near the Grand Tetons last week. It was awesome!
Julie: I hope you feel better ASAP.
Wishing everyone a wonderful week!
5 new listings for me last week. We had a house guest for five days and I wasn’t able to work on eBay at all during that time. This week will be worse though as we’re about to go on vacation for more than a week.
None of the five items I managed to list (once our guest left) were from my DPs. But one multiple quantity listing that I got up on Saturday just sold out – so I’m pleased with that sale. Otherwise eBay has been a rollercoaster for me with a lot more downswings than I remember from previous years.
I was doing well with my plan to reduce my DPs through forcing myself to list (or donate) DP items in order to earn new purchases. But my favorite craft resale store had a sale – five sewing patterns for $1 – and I just bought 87 patterns. Oops! I believe in taking opportunities when they present themselves and I’ll make a lot of $ on what I purchased. But it’s not helping my DP reduction plan at all!
Wishing everyone a wonderful week!
Julie I hope your kitty cat improves ASAP. It sounds like you’re doing everything possible and you are a fantastic pet parent!
15 listings for me last week. 7 were DP items. I did start delving into things that would qualify for the armpit challenge, but like Christine I’m not great at pop-up challenges. I worked on some of the items but so far all the work is half completed and none of the items are actually listed.
Wishing everyone a happy week!
Hello Fellow Scavengers!
I’m posting late because we just got back from a quick vacation in Arizona. It was a wonderful trip, we flew JSX (only 30 passengers per jet) out of Rocky Mountain Airport (15 minutes from our house) and bypassed the craziness at DIA.
Due to not being home and the work involved in getting ready to leave I only managed 7 listings last week, but 5 were DP items so that was good.
I haven’t had time to figure out what to list for the armpit challenge yet but I know for sure I have DP items that fit the criteria.
Wishing everyone a great week!
Congrats Christine on the great listing number!
Only 16 new listings again for me last week. It seems I’m having a summer listing slow down.
I also fell off the wagon with my new purchases earned for every two DP listings (or donations) plan, so I’ve got some DP listing ahead of me to even up the score. However, I have a lot going on this week and I may end up with zero listings to post next Monday. Lots of summer fun though!
Wishing everyone a happy week!
16 for me, I didn’t meet my weekly listing goal last week 🙁
However, I’m happy that once I got back on the listing train I managed 15 items in two days. Two items were from my DP. And a couple of those new listings have already sold.
Happy Memorial Day to all!
25 new listings for me. I met my weekly listing goal and 5 of those listed were DP items, so I’m pleased all around.
I just got back from the grand reopening of my favorite thrift store. Ouch. I’m way over my purchase allotment. So I’ll have to work on donating and/or listing DP items to make up for that spree. Oops.
Wishing everyone a great week!
Sharyn: My understanding is that once you’ve had chicken pox that virus retreats to your spinal area and lives there. If your immune system is compromised enough it can then resurface as shingles. While it’s less likely to get shingles twice in one lifetime, it is possible.
I think because shingles lives near the spine that’s why it’s most common to have shingles near the waistline. But it can also resurface over one eye and I now know two people who have permanant vision impairment from having shingles. It can scar your cornea if it breaks out near an eye.
