I'm trying to figure out better ways to get all my listing, packing, etc. done. The less time consuming...the better.
I was listing approx. 100 items 2 days a week--of course that took from 8 am til about 10 pm. A friend said they list approx. 20 items a day--they list all 20 in the morning then have the rest of the day to pack, ship, etc. Has anyone learned any good time saving tips???

Sounds like to me that your friend gave you a pretty good idea already.
I list about 10 to 20 things per day - just till the mail comes. Then I take the payments received and then box and package my items.
At 3 pm every day I run to either the post office, UPS or FedEx Ground. All are really close to me so I only put 4 miles on my car a day for eBay.
Once I am done with my delivery to the shipping stores then I am done with my eBay job for the day and I go into MOM mode. I run errands, make dinner, do laundry, read to my little one, help my older one with homework, pick up only one room per day and then in the evening I either go out with my friends, go bowling or bingo (3 nights a week I am out).
Yes - I am busy. I stay home most weekends (that is when the crazy people are out anyway) and list some more - only I do it on a schedule to help boost some of the days I don't have much to list.
Oh and on Tuesdays and Thursdays I do go thrift shopping for product in the AM.
