Came home and told he has seen five of the boxes of the DVD in this store ... couldn't find a scanner and didnt know what to do ... Now, this place is a 30 mile round trip and I have never had much luck there, but on the other hand, I have not seen an awful lot of posts saying people have found any (obviously though the lurkers wont post) ... have had my coat and boots on twice, was just hoping another glitch would come up so it would be worth the 30 mile round trip in case they had gone, or were the more up to date box ,

    Pm someone local and share the goodies!!

    They were not the same dvd players, that were scanning at £1 they were the newer model scanning at full price, the box is slightly more square shaped. To my husband, they just looked the same as what I had the other day. If they had been the correct ones, I would have done my usual and 'hidden them' then posted to see if there was any interest. Was very dissppointed as the traffic was horrendous. never mind, perhaps tomorrow ...

    I'm always wary about those bags that come through the door, you don't really know where they are actually going...Or maybe that's just me. I usually take mine into a charity shop, that way you know where the stuff is going.

    Maybe I'm to cynical ;)

    our council recycles clothes, just put them out on collection day

    although i do try not to do that, i've seen people in pyjamas on the school run having a good rifle through :eek:

    its worth having a look on the website of your local charity shops- one of mine collects. I only need to go as far as around the side of the house
