    hey all- i'm gonna do music magpie with my CD's tonight, well it beats trying to find a home for them!!! am gonna just download the CD's i put onto Itunes and can sell the actual discs....... does it quidco? or are there referrals?

    Any advice gratefully accepted.

    Ive never used it TBH Maz :confused:
    I tidied out the cupboard with all the hundreds of DVD's in today hoping OH might get rid of some...I mean he hasn't watched any of them since we moved here 3 years ago...his hording drives me mad.
    I'll make a wish, take a chance, make a change And breakaway. I'll take a risk, take a chance, make a change and breakaway ....

    i'd start selling/music magpie-ing them and when he asks about particular ones, just plead ignorance.. say "dunno, must be in another box.... never touch 'em"
    I'm just a seething mass of contradictions....

    Like your style...in fact I have done that with many of his things over the years and I don't think he has ever asked about any of it!!

    My OH keeps "bits" of things like leads and bulbs and bits of computers.........drives me up the wall.
    But these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.

    I did music magpie through quidco Maz. All incredibly fast and smooth. Some amounts are tiny ie 30p for big name artists, but there were some weird ones which threw up £3 price tags which I would have thought worthless.

    Ok decisions, I wore Jeans last week for weigh in, Do I wear Jeans again this week as its first week and I expect to loose so won't really matter and take advantage of wearing lighter clothes on another week when I might need that pound. Or do I not wear them tonight and go for a bigger first week loss?
