    Hi all!

    I have got some ebay parcels to take to the PO today.

    I also have some items I have listed on freecycle for collection - a long strip of carpet that has been rolled up in the bottom of a cupboard for about two years! plus a white 3 tier fruit rack.

    I need to fill another black sack of clothes and take the four bags I have filled to a charity shop this afternoon too.

    Will list some more ebay items today and take advantage of the cheap listing day.
    :D Thanks to MSE, I am mortgage free!:D
  • Hi All, my first post. I am promising this year to car boot my clutter. I promised last year but what with the wet weather and........well you know. My lady has moved in with me so we are busy putting aside all the duplicate stuff we have which will take for ever I think!

    hi and welcome!!!

    We are very good motivators.. and you have me to compete with.. I am VERY competitive lol.. If there is duplicate stuff to get rid of quick freecycle is a good option though of course you don't get money for it.

    Do you one of the quick list programs, like Turbolister or Auctiva?

    Had a bit of a depressed moment sitting here looking at the state of the office (hasn't changed much since the last photo even though I have ebayed a load of stuff and freecycled another bunch).

    So, I have just had a two minute binbag fillup of stuff that simply isn't going to sell/freecycle!

    Feel better now!!!
