6 items have sold on eBay and more have got bids on that are ending today. Am running out of free listings so will only put on things I think have a good chance of selling and save the rest for free listing. There is big improvements in the house, my room is much improved and the outhouse is looking better. I have quite a lot of stuff that I am saving for when I move out so need to store that together is all over the place!

More decluttering in the kitchen:
14 bags and baskets
3 handle-less saucepan lids
half a jar of glass pebbles
2 hanging fruit baskets
2 topless flasks
base for the handmixer-before-last
2 black bin bags of very out-of-date food (baby food when my youngest is nearly 5!?!)

Unless my maths has let me down that makes it

Declutter in February challenge: 100/100
Boxes packed for the move: 63

So maybe I'll aim for another 100 - as everything will be packed or disposed of by the end of the month, that could be a worthwhile aim!

Today I have been in the kitchen and dipping in and out of here and flylady thread :rotfl:to get my houseproud mojo back and through HHC and decluttering I have managed

22. Black lacy top that I am realistically never going to wear back to CS
23. Last years calender - recycling
24. 2 x best teaching assistant gifts - CS
25 - 30. 6 x Cookery books to CS - z*pper only offering 30p each - would rather CS benefited!
31. Sugar cupboard decluttered and 4 x out of date brown sugar to bin ( only did this because I was looking for conchigliette for supper but tis done!)
32. Various old internet printed recipes from bookshelves to recycling.

Lots ending on ebay tonight going for much more money than I thought. Stupid really that this stuff has been cluttering up my house when it could have been cluttering up my bank balance:mad:.

Off to declutter Chunky meatball soup now:D.

Hi all

So I have, ahem, a few books. Well, more than a few. A few boxes perhaps.

So, once I've sorted out my favourites, what do I do with the rest?

The skinflint in me thinks I ought to try make some money. But with two toddlers, I'm not likely to do a carboot sale any time soon, so are there any other worthwhile options? Or do I bite the bullet, and give them to a charity shop? Are hardback ones easy to sell? Paperbacks not so good?

Ta for any advice

I've done a bit more over the last few weeks,
1 bag of clothes to charity shop, wardrobe now looks better and I can see my clothes.
3 things posted for ebay.
2 waiting to be picked up (I'd rather post them so they are out of my house lol)
1 bag of moss weeded from the garden.

Things are really starting to come together and I am pleased when I look around and see little spaces everywhere.
Got 2 bags of stuff to ebay so going to wait for them to clear until I find more stuff, however I'm itching to declutter more areas of the house.

Zapper? Sell through Amazon or trade in there? I've used both, they don't pay much but it's easy to do. Or CS would be good I think if you can afford to take the loss. It's surprising what they can sell! Good luck
