Darn, no sales and a vacation in the near future?!

I think I've jinxed myself as far as ebay goes! The last two days, Tuesday and Wednesday were terrible!! Hoping for a better day.

So Wednesday I almost went to a concert for a friend's birthday, but it turns out that the concert was sold out. Whew! Lucked out on that one ;) Don't get me wrong, I would have LOVED to go, but I saved about $50 so that's what I'm happy about.

Another thing that saved me money was, not going out to a last minute dinner with another couple of friends. I missed their call to meet for dinner and when I got back to them, they had already gone. That also saved me some $$$!

But...they want to plan a trip to Vegas in March! Good thing is that my friend works for the airlines and we can get "buddy passes" for $35 each, round trip. Then we'll split the hotel, go for the weekend and have a nice little mini vacation.

I think I'll have to dip into my emergency fund and pay it back. Not that a vacation is an emergency, but...how can I not go when the flight is only $35?

Keep it comin'...

I'm up waaaayyyy too late! Anyhow, I sold yet another profit maker from the grocery store! Sorry, I can't won't say what it is...to help keep me anonymous.

I'll guess that I've made about $38 so far from five of the nine things I bought. That makes me smile. :) Now, I just hope this trend keeps up.

Yeah! Sold more!

Once again I was happy to sell another one of the items I picked up at the grocery store a couple of days ago! This time the profit was better, $9.00 :) Once the money is available in my checking account, I'll transfer it to the WF card I used to pay for it all, including the profit.

Also, once there is money in my bank account, I'll update the totals on the side :) ------->

Tick, tock, I get so impatient on the weekends because money is never automatically transferred to my bank account, either by direct deposit or PayPal :(
