Thanks as always to Loopychriss who first introduced declutter targets to our thread. Such as declutter 100 things in 10 days. Who's up for a November challenge? I'm going to aim for:

:TWell done bigdaftkid for reaching your target and well done to everyone else on all your decluttering.
I never take part in counting decluttering, it doesn't work for me. Instead I try to focus on one part of the house for a week or whatever time I think is needed. Today I focused on the living room which got dusted. I couldn't believe how much dust there was.
A couple of sachets of various toiletries have been used up. 2 completed forms will be posted tomorrow. I have also sorted through my purse and shredded loads of receipts & out of date vouchers.No toiletries challenge, started 18/1/2010 - Putting £1 in my savings jar for every item that I use up. Pot 1 to 4 = £261. Pot 5=£23
Boots points:£39.21. Extra money in 2012:£674.59. In 2013 £603.48. 2014: £85. 2015: £0 :j0 -
