Hi!

Happy Holidays! I hope your eBay sales have been as great as ours. November was up 25.8% over last year and I think December may beat that percentage increase.

With everything going on with my family, I have not had the time to write an ezine, and I miss you all! So, my brother had a great idea. Why not send a mini-update? My brother is so smart. Plus we want to remind everyone that our Stocking Stuffer Sale is ending tonight. Time to stuff those stockings!

My amazing sister pulled through and we were able to go on the family cruise. It was a very special time of bonding, laughing, crying, making memories and an overall fantastic experience for the nine of us.

Kiki and me.

In the middle of our trip, my sister started to lose feeling and movement in her legs. She didn't let it ruin her dream trip. After consulting with her doctors, we finished out the cruise with Kiki in a wheelchair. Upon her arrival back in Bellingham she was taken to the hospital, where she spent several days.

I am happy to share that she is now back in her home with her two little boys and has round the clock care due to her awesome circle of friends, donations to help with child care and wonderful family support.

Houston, Indy and I fly up to Bellingham on December 21st. I will move in with Kiki for two weeks. Wish both Kiki and I luck! We will see how all of that goes.

Thank you to my ezine readers for your support during this time. I also want to say a very special thank you to the Queen's Court members. The Queen's court has been beyond amazing and all of your prayers, good wishes and notes to me have helped more than you will ever know.

Now, let's get on to some fun updates. What the heck have I been selling that is making my December one of my best ever?

As I look back over my last several weeks of sales, most of the items are pretty boring. Nothing major is selling but there has been a constant stream of $10 to $20 sales of everyday items. Yay for eBay! In a down economy, eBay still rocks!

Here are a few fun mini scores for you to check out.

This vintage Scandinavian pan sold for almost full price as a Buy It Now. It is featured in our Live Boot Camp that was held at HQ this year. BTW, for those of you who ordered Live Boot Camp footage it shipped out today! Thanks for your patience--the footage is incredible and I can't wait for you to receive it.

See this listing on eBay.

Another cookware item that sold was this great au gratin pan. Always, always buy this brand when you see it.

Hey, I see a theme here. Cookware sells! Maybe that should be my next eBook. Oh yeah, on the subject of the eBook, I have everything emailed to Lee for section 3 and it is really great info. So excited to get it formatted and to those of you who have purchased it. He is working on it and will have it out before the end of the year.

Finally, don't forget that our Stocking Stuffer sale ends on Thursday night at midnight. There are some great bargains to pick up in this sale. See the sale page here.

The best part of this sale is that for the first time ever you can pick and choose which DVDs you want from the one and only ever Lynn on Location LOL in Las Vegas. And for only $19.99 each! Maybe you want to learn about sourcing from Lisa Suttora, or Antiques & Collectibles from Will Seippel the CEO of WorthPoint, or organization from Diva Dawn. You can pick and choose which subjects interest you. Check it out here.

Again, thank you to all of my wonderful ezine readers and my QC members for your support, thoughts and prayers. I hope to write an ezine the week before Christmas, but you never know, so Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays and remember to enjoy every minute you get to spend with your loved ones.

Happy eBaying,

Lynn
