    I had a notification on my phone the other night to say 'thank you for listing your item on the bay' - My OH's bay account is linked to my phone as his is not smart at all... I had a look on there as I didn't think we had anything to sell and he is selling £2 donations to our honeymoon.

    What a lovely clever and original idea. So far we have £6! haha!

    Thats a great idea! Good thinking on his behalf and not much to ask either! He should share it on facebook etc to get the best number of buys!

    Ps. Just read it on ebay. Good on him :o)

    We have shared it on FB and Tweeter with our friends. One random person has donated too - really thought only friends would donate but I guess as it's such a sweet original idea that they thought 'it's worth £2' - think I probably would.

    Bless him xx

    I tried to explain it to the father-in-law over the phone and he didn't get it at all!

    He also says we may just about get to Doncaster with £6! haha!

    Not sure I appreciate the photo of me on the beach on there - but I think he's really thought outside the box this time and come up with a cool idea! xx

    I really am one very lucky girl!

    We had kinda given up hope of having a honeymoon at all, but we think we'll be able to have some camping time away just us at least. My mum and dad are saving all their change too - this will probably gives another 100-200. I would never have thought of it and would also think it would be far too cheeky! But the boy has done good :) xx

    We are up to £22 :)

    I'm not sure how much we 'need' - we literally have no money for a honeymoon... I had some money saved up but then our insurance nearly tripled, then my car set on fire for no reason and due to the nature of the fire it couldn't be done through insurance, and my OH hasn't had much work on so the savings have been paying bills.

    Right, you lovely ladies.... I have worked out how to invite you by email so if you have donated I have invited you to our group.... Hopefully I have set things up so we can 'blog' our plans and share our special day(s) with you.

    Thank you again for your generosity!

    Lots of love xxx

    Just to update you...We have raised £24 so far...

    It all helps though as if we just go camping in England, this will help pay for the fuel, and if we raise more we can go glamping/travel lodge/inn style...

    You can't see it anymore :(

    It said (I really hope I am not breaking rules! I really really am sorry if I am, I really don't intend to!)...

    Hi, My partner and I have been together for nearly 7 years and have set a date for our wedding (6th July 2013), it is our intention to start a family and move to the peak district once we are married. We have managed to save enough money for a small wedding with 20 guests. Its a traditional wedding in a small village church in Lincolnshire. Our family and friends have rallied round to make the wedding a special day, despite our best efforts we have not managed rise enough money for a honeymoon, I am listing this advert in the hope that people will contribute to our honeymoon, and I can offer my princess (Sarah) the honeymoon she deserves, any one contributing will be added to our Facebook page where you can follow our special day. Thanks for taking the time to read. Kind regards Tony.

    Today I casually log into the bay to see what other bargains I could get to find that I have an email from another member regarding an advert I forgot I had put up on the bay.
    The advert I'm referring to is one for donations to our honeymoon as we have never really had a holiday having got two small children and are unable to afford the honeymoon and get married all together so I put a cheeky advert up asking for donations, I had one Donation of £2 when the advert was first placed, I renewed the advert and promptly forgot about it.
    The email I received states that the buyer came across my advert and their heart hurt, they stated they wanted to help & could they donate more than £2 (the current set price of donations) they asked how much we have raised for our honeymoon so far and I was truthful and stated that they were only the second donator so we had raised £4 total so far. A few emails later and the totally lovely but random person has stated that they are willing to match what ever donations I get on the idea that the most I give in return is a "thank yoou" card!
    There truely are some amazing people in this world and you know who you are!
    Thank you so much for your kindness and generosity! You have made me smile!
