30 days sales went over $2,400.

I lowered the prices of a few products with excessive inventory & put up Amazon ads for them. My recent few shipments seem to be taking foever to be checked in by the FBA locations... I don't know if it's always been this way & I just never noticed, or what.

Had another 17 pics done yesterday & it took only less than $3. I'm going to finish up a few listings today. Ordered some restocking inventory again too.

I'm scheduled to quit my job in 3 months. My FBA adventure is sort of taking over my attention and time, & I make more from it anyway. I think in 3 months' time I can stablize the cash flow a bit more & make sure apart from using the revenue to restock, I'll have enough left to support myself.
