  • Spent a long time yesterday sorting out paperwork, so loads of old envelopes etc went into the recycling.

    Have several items ending on e-bay later, but will list these when I have posted them.

    41. Old t-shirt into Charity bag
    42. Selection of pencils to local Scout group
    43. Papers for recycling

    Can't think of anything else at the moment, but this thread is really helping me declutter - but haven't noticed any real difference as yet!

    A bag of outgrown shoes ready to go to the charity shop. It is wheelie bin/recycling day tomorrow so had a quick rush round looking for stuff to go. Feeling really pleased with this weekends efforts because we have had loads of other stuff to do, surprising what can be achieved in 10 minutes here and there.

    Have a great evening, we are just about to declutter some "proper" coffee.

    I bet that feels good!:T

    It really does :) DD1 was so excited that we made it to 100 bless her.

    Couple more bits to add:
    123. 2 completed puzzle books from the side of the bed recycled - I went through them last night and finished off any puzzles that I hadn't done just so I could recycle them lol
    124. Magazine to recycling

    Can't believe how much we've got rid of considering I had a bit of a gap in decluttering half way through the month :)

  • One large bag of paper recycling gone - counted because it's part of the decluttering, not regular household recycling.

    I expect there'll be more - I'm trying to sort out all our paperwork.
    It's a nightmare!:eek:

    Any tips on organising paperwork - and keeping it organised?

    Grr why does it always disappear when I'm about to submit???

    Anyway, I had 4 to go. Found some mini bread stick that no one likes so crushed for the birds, and the carton recycled.

    Tomorrow I have a huge bag of papers to go in the confidential waste at work, and a broken plastic kiddy chair for the bin.

    So, only one left after those! Yaay!

  • Oh, any ideas of where I could get rid of a Clearblue pregnancy test (unused, but one of 2 pack so no box/instructions (but its fairly obvious!)) as they are expensive but I won't ever use it and it seems a waste just to bin it.
