    Talking Listed my first item today in 3 years!

    Well I guess I am officially in business. I listed my first item in 3 years on Ebay. Just a small thing. I do hand painted home decor.

    It is just a $6.99 Tissue box cover but that would just be $6.99 closer to paying for dds Fall tuition for her Sophmore year.

    Every dollar COUNTS right!?!

    I hope to list at least 4 more items by the end of the week.

    A good goal to work for I think.

    I have 2 watchers!!

    Your right, every penny counts. I see people on e-bay selling coupons for a dollar. I love selling on e-bay. I just made almost $100 over the week-end. I've been selling off all my scrapbooking stuff - going to go digital and I don't have time right now. I put my Creative Memories Cutting System up for bid and figured I would get around $30 because it's used and I ended up selling it for $76. I also sold Dave Ramsey's TMMO book for $8.50 and I bought it at Goodwill for $2.99. I plan on putting more stuff up for auction later on today. I have another Dave Ramsey book that I bought for myself, but I will end up losing money on that one because I paid full price for it at the store. Anyway, hope your tissue box sells - it's very nice. You do a good job at painting.

    Wow! Good sales! I just listed 2 cherry magnets today so I am getting back into the swing of things.

    I did pick up another watcher for what it is worth!

    As for that second Dave ramsey book--just letting it collect dust is worse than selling it at a loss!

    Good luck.

    Wow............ great job ebay selling you guys! I've GOT to get started doing this. Have bought off ebay for years, but have never tried selling.

    Heavens knows I have TONS of stuff here. Some pretty good stuff too .... that I just don't need.

    Very nice painting Cricketlegs. You do a great job!

    I used to do decorative painting years ago (before I started my bath & body business) and LOVED it.
    Hmmmmm...... actually I have quite a few of the books, brand-spanking new, I could probably sell on ebay.

    Watching you guys sell stuff just might be that PUSH I need to get started
