Instead of CS Aesop, have a car boot 'everything 50p'. Then anything you don't sell after that CS. Charity begins at home and all that...

If I owned a car would have done that and friends like to say things like we should do a car boot and then don't follow through.

Tried Facebook? What about 'box of car boot items £x'? Job lots sell for a bit on eBay...

Well done to all those who have already met target. Aesop, I agree with Nat, is there nothing else you can do to make some money from your bits and bobs? Weigh it in if its clothes for example?

DH has inherited some money from a relative, we got it today. What is the general consensus, do I add it to this challenge or not? We didnt 'make' it obviously, but its extra unexpected funds.

Do it! It's money you didnt have before that you do now

Thanks ladies, but I have tried all the netmums, facebook, gumtree, even reducing stuff, etc.

it came down to, my in laws are coming, have nowhere to hide this stuff, cannot get into the loft safely, we don't have proper loft ladders so mission even for DH.

thought long and hard, and off it went today to my favourite CS, it is a hospice one, that supports our local hospice with it's sales. And they have finally been given the right to claim gift aid on donations, so that will help my donations go even further.

Sadly I know of 3 people who are in need of hospice services, and it is for this reason after thinking long and hard, I donated my stuff to this wonderful CS. If my donations help someone and their family at this sad time, that makes me happy. And karma will find me a way to be compensated for what I have done

Hi all - my apologies for not being on here this last week - have had a bit of a mega week - you know the ones where you know you're going to be fairly bust anyway, and then something else comes along on top and just pushes any plans aside. Have rambled about it on the May thread, so won't bore you twice.
I have been trying to skim over the last few days that I've been awol, but keep dropping off to sleep and can't remember reading anything So will carry on tomorrow.
Hope everyone is good though

Morning

Nat21luv - Thank you for the advice re Quidco/Tesco.

Another £1.53 from eb*y so total now £50.39. I'm also waiting for some payments - if they're quick I can post today...local PO closes at dinnertime and it's too wet and miserable to yomp downtown.

£40 to add from the restaurant vouchers we were given for our wedding but we spent them at DD3 birthday tea!
And £9.89 from shopping savings.
Won't make target but have had my eye off the pulse for much of the month.
Am enjoying the fleabay phone app - sooo much faster and have 39 things on now, all ending next month, so I am hopeful of reaching target next month.
At least I've had fun trying!

Just updated signature and won't make anymore before my birthday so declaring at

£175.66
It's better than a slap in the chops :T
