    Last year any "unwanted" items were sold at a car boot sale and the money went into our house savings - Stuff that did not sell got sent down to the local primary school for their bring and buy sale.

    I was lucky enough to win a few of the same items before Christmas so gave lots of brand new toys to the christmas toy appeal. Other bits I offer to family or friends.

    Sell for bills or treats for me or my pets/family. I sell quite a lot of my wins if it is not something I am bothered about keeping.
    MAY THE ODDS BE EVER IN YOUR FAVOUR
  • I only enter things I would like or know people who would. I won £100 of Galt toys which my cousin had for her new born, books for my auntie etc
