it is possible to receive free items from ebay if you are prepared to travel to collect in person. just run advanced search and select relevant criteria - i usually limit to 10 miles of where i live and check collect in person.

i have had some decent stuff off there

as someone once said "one mans rubbish is another mans treasure"

    Just google 'freecycle' and it will take you to a site, then you have to pick one in your local area.

    thanks for the address
  • Hi Diasy

    Read your post the other day and just thought I'd say a big 'thank you' to the person who made me aware of the myskip.com website. I've just managed to secure myself a secondhand kitchen for Free!!!

    The site is a real god send for people like me living on a tight budget and I can also see how it can benefit others needing to to get rid of their unwanted items quickly, without having to pay to get them taken away.

    Thanks again
  • If you type in https://www.localbargainfinder.co.uk and then type in your postcode it will pull up all the bargains within a 10 mile radius to your home on Ebay.
    You can save the search on Ebay and get daily emails for new stuff coming in.
    Through thia I have got a new wardrobe for £2.21 and wavy mirrors for £3.00! Happy hunting!
