Selling my life on eBay

The past few days has seen me being slightly running away from my blog. Not through choice, but once you have your own house you can't relax the same way you ever did under your parents roof.

After my parents came down a few weeks ago (See This Post) I ended up with piles and piles of clothes to sort through and along with them came the not-so lovely smell of my mouldy stoke on trent uni house.

After a good wash, I have started the long process into selling everything on eBay to make some money to pay back my overdraft.

This is a short and sweet post where I basically tell you to check out my ebay account.

My Username is forgetmenot_darling and you can access it by clicking here.

I don't have amazing things up at the moment, purely because I'm getting rid of the stuff I know I won't wear / fit into again to start with but keep up with me and more will follow.

Have you got an eBay account? Link me to yours if you have bits for sale...I love buying on there!!

My Sample Ramble

The title of this is harder to say than you think. 

Todays post is actually a bit of a disclaimer / moral of my mine that rather than repeating over and over on my blog, I now have a post I can link back too.

More often than not, I'll be reveiwing a sample or smaller version of a product, when I do this as much as I'll give the benefit of the doubt and try and find pros and cons in everything, my main rule is:

If you're going to give me sample, you think thats how much its going to take to convert / persaude me.

I'm aware a lot of you will probably disagree with this and they're actually just giving you 'a sampler', but Ive always seen a sample as a 'try before you buy' so the more you give me the more I have to try -> the more likely I am to buy.

If a company give me a fingertip size of foundation, It doesnt allow me the longest wear to give it a try and fall in love with it.

I more often than not get a fairly good sample from counter girls, I'm mainly referring this to magazine samples / shop samples etc etc.

This view is completely my own - I will alway state that I have just tried a sample (and the full size may be amazing) but it terms of trying to sell it to me, this is what the sample has achieved....

Sorry this is a somewhat boring post today but as I say, I'm new to this and need to get the boring bits and pieces out of the way first!!

Better reviews are coming your way this week. I promise :)

This Whole New Year Resolution Update

 This year I made a list of New Years Resolutions (LINK HERE) and I'm sure most people did, but I'm adament to stick to mine by the of 2014 so I figured the main way to keep up with this is remind myself every month on here.

I won't bore you with the list so I'll just update you with the ones I'm keeping on top off (or shamefully not).


1) Lose 2 stone- This is by the end of the year so technically this means 2/3 pounds a month as I'm in no massive rush so I'm trying to do it healthily but without limiting myself. -- IVE LOST 2 POUNDS.

3)Less is more - In regards to my spending habits, it doesnt feel like this has taken effect if I'm honest, but I have ended up with money left other for the last 2 weeks so perhaps it is???

5) Go back home more- Shamefully no, this hasnt happened.

6) Move out of my parents completely. - I've havent been back but from my mothers texts theyre doing it without me which means I dont decide what goes! Wahhh :(

7) Get a credit card - Not yet, but I did do my credit report which was surprisingly good

9) Ebay all year - So far so good! (the new automatic relister helps)

13) Visit the Harry Potter studio tour  8th January BEST DAY EVER

14) Have a holiday - We've booked a 5 day break in the Lake District for the start of March which I'm so excited for.

15) Enjoy everything as much as possible. - I think so :)

Hope you all have a great week and are keeping on top of your resolutions!!
