I'm doing quite nicely! We had a huge credit card problem last year, and my husband and I cut up every last one! Its interesting the choices you make once you know you have to have the money in the account before you buy it! No more fun runs to Friendly's for ice-cream or new shoes "just because."

We occasionally run into problems where people want a credit card - like reservations in a hotel - but more and more places are able to accept checks over the phone as long as you provided the routing numbers, etc.

As for e-bay, its something I've never had a yen to visit. My friend sells on it all the time and does quite well.. I've photographed a few things to sell, but never got around to actually posting.
