EBAY Business SALE 1

King duvet cover brought for 9.99 + tax= 10.69
Shipping cost:        12.90
Ebay Cost:     2.80
PayPal Cost:   1.20
Total: 27.59
Sold it for 28 dollars

made: .41


Haha I think that was a fail but at least I didn't lose money we will see how other sales go- might be too many fees involved to do it the way I am doing it. I didn't waste any money on gas since i picked up the duvet cover while out shopping anyways with a friend and I had to go to the PO BOX anyways so shipped it then.

sick- stomach bug or food poisoning

Around 9pm on friday night i went from feeling a little tired to getting a headache like i had a cold to in about half hour time throwing up, i was having a throwing up episode every 1/2 hour to hour until about 3-4am then i felt nauseous until about mid morning (although this part was tolerable for the most part) and then felt pretty crappy for the rest of the day. Today I feel better, although still tired and my stomach can only handle small quantities of food. The husband thinks it was food poisoning, I think it was the stomach bug. Hopefully he does not get. I will be carrying hand sanitizer with me from now on in hopes of preventing this in the future.

I finding throwing up to be one of the worst things because there is not much you can do about it and I had no idea when it was going to end- although we had pepto i doubt it would have done much since i couldn't even keep liquid down and i have read that it is not good to prevent throwing up since your body is trying to clear out whatever it is.

New Vacuum and rug

http://www.bedbathandbeyond.com/product.asp?SKU=18478048

I got this vacuum- I spent so much time reading reviews trying to make sure I did get another vacuum that loses suction and ends up being junk. This one got awesome reviews and many people said it was just as good as the dyson for a lot less. I used a 20 percent off coupon plus had gift cards left over from our wedding so only payed 72 dollars. So far it has worked great and I picked up a gross amount of dirt/dog hair in our house- I love how it has a attachment to do the wood and tile floors.

I also got this rug in red with the groupon I got for Christmas- currently we don't have a rug on our hardwoods in our family room we will see how it goes in there. If it gets too fully of dog hair I will put it in the dining room which doesn't get used much.  With the groupon I spent 32 dollars out of pocket so, 75 groupon cost to purchase + 32= 107 dollars for an 8 by 11 area rug is a good price, however I was disappointed that I could not use it on many of the rugs I liked on the site since they were on sale and you cannot combine.
