One of my surprising items that has a bid on eBay is 2 badges I won in some 2p machines on holiday, had a bid on them within an hour!

It's amazing what sells on ebay isn't it? The things you feel sure will get bids on them go unsold, and the stuff you put on not expecting anything go for quite good prices! I sold some pin badges on ebay that we won on the 2p machines in Skeg the other year, every single one sold, mind you they were Me to You ones so not cheap rubbish you sometimes get from 2p machines!

Yesterday I removed 1900 messages from my Blackberry and laptop! It feels so much better.

Work defeated me in January and I only managed about 80 items - DS's birthday yesterday so had another influx of pressies to the house. But I'm definitely up for the challenge in Feb, although again I don't know if I'll make 100 as it's another tough work month. But I'll try!

I've scanned old photos onto my computer so have ended up with a few surplus photo frames so ditched those to the charity shop so here goes

1-6 photo frames to CS
7 Jigsaw puzzle - never used to CS

Found the answer to my question on the site. Can I be bothered to list books on ebay? Not really. Amazon won't have them or will Zapper or the other ones. So what should I do with them sell or just chuck in charity bag?

I've had the same dilemma, Endless. If Amazon sellers sell them for 1p I have given them to CS. Otherwise I'm trying my luck selling them on Amazon and what doesn't sell in whatever their timescale is, I'll give to CS. I've never tried selling books on eBay but I notice lots for sale. Not sure how well they do though.

I've got about 30 books listed on Amazon that Zapper won't take and Amazon won't trade in and have so far sold 5 of them - surprised it's that many!

I am excited and terrified that I might meet this months target by the end of the day.
I have finished sorting the medicine cupboard and have got rid of 42 items, not to mention all the wierd stray bits of lego and stuff that I couldn't be bothered to count.
Also had a quick look at the cupboards ( not e proper sort out, literally just opened them) and found another 15 items to go into recycling. Mismatched tupperware and leaky sports bottles mainly.
Took the 4 packs of seeds I found into school. Also dropped off a stack of box top tokens I had collected.
This takes the total to; 85/100.
I honestly didn't realise I could get this much stuff in my house:eek:
