I have a 3 Piece Suite I want rid of. It's in reasonable nick. Have put it on freecycle but there doesn't seem to be any takers.

Anyone know if certain charities would be interested. All they have to do is collect it & it's their's.

Thanks in advance

    Our Oxfam have a home furnishings shop, that sell wardrobes, white goods and suites. Or do you you have a community transport in your area?

    Failing that, I'd be interested if you're local. I'm just outside Coventry? Not far off being a needy cause.
    Depression is well Depressing. So I go shopping. Then I realise how much debt I'm in. Then my depression hits low and so I go shopping...

    Charity's always want the fire safety ticket on now as we found out last year.
    I had a CRT monitor and had advertised it on Freecycle but no-one wanted it - they just kept emailing and asking if it was a TFT. When I replied and said no a CRT(!) they came back and said Oh I wanted one of the new ones! :mad: However for the upteenth time I put it on Freecycle today and within 15 mins it had been collected and is now in it's new home! So I would say give it another go and you may be lucky.

    I'd say to give a few of the shops a quick bell. They might go for it.
    for more info check out www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk . You'll find me there.

    yes, I realise I may appear cold and heartless a lot of the time.
