    Oh dear, I haven't posted on here for quite a while i.e. since my post at the beginning of Mrach with my first item on it! I've been dropping by to read all your posts and catch up on how everyone is getting on with the decluttering but not actually posting my outs. So I don't take up half a page in one post I'll just say that I'm now up to 40/100 but I've probably missed out quite a lot. This includes stuff like:
    Playroom stuff/tat/recycling etc
    Magazines/junk mail to recycling etc
    Surplus hangers etc recycled
    Receipts recorded and recycled/filing done & recycled
    DD2's clothes sold via FB
    Used up beauty stash etc
    Few ebay sales and related packaging

    I've had a mega week in terms of cleaning/chores. I think it's the sun that's done it, I've walked the kids to school & nursery everyday this week instead of being lazy and using the car and I think it's pepped me up no end :) Did a proper deep clean of the bathroom and got rid of a few bits from there, kept on top of my ironing and done little jobs and bits I usually end up leaving. Feeling very proud of myself :) Part of this is that I've kept off the laptop until the evening unless I really need to use it (e.g. online banking) and then it's job done and off instead of browsing on here for hours lol

    Well done to everyone's efforts this month, looking forward to starting again in April and trying to on top of recording what we get rid of. Over a hundred in Jan, 127 individual items in Feb, at least 40 bundles of stuff in March. Feeling confident we can get the house looking neat and tidy all the time once we've shifted the stuff we don't need, want or use :)
    Extra savings aim for 2020 £4,000 £0/£4,000

    80 items sold on Ebay this month, and only one lot of auction buys in, most of which are priced and out for sale.

    Going to tackle the hall today, no idea what's in there, but it is going.

    Bought some industrial racking, so over Easter will be sorting my industrial unit and trying to get organised there.

    Well done to everyone, especially if you're managing to make money as well as decluttering.
    You're only young once, but you can be immature forever :D
