  • Can I join too please? I think £1000 is way too high for me though so can I aim for £500 please? Hopefully I will find some stuff to sell, I know I have too much clutter. The money will be going in my credit union account and will go towards a family holiday. Starting in January. Thank you.

  • Hello Everyone,

    I'm completely new to the forums but would like to join the challenge for 2015 if i can? i think £1000 would be a little steep for me but need motivation to do a car boot sale or two etc so ill aim for £500 and see how far i get?

    Thanks, Sophie

    Can you put me down for £1000 please? On the upside, that's *less* than I've sold since 1 November (now at £1200, mix of my *amazing* local FB selling group and eBay). On the downside, that total includes all the 'quick wins' like my old phone and 3 crates of Duplo (my kids are 17 and 14! I've been 'meaning to sell it' for five years!). So we still have tons of clutter to sort through, but it's mostly not so obvious what will sell.

    Edit: And as for what it will pay for -- this year it paid for Christmas; all the presents, cards, stamps, food, booze, visiting people, meals out; the lot. So that's a target. Plus I'm hoping that the selling group will provide me with interesting, quirky presents for every single person on my list; I'm going to keep a list all year.
    Make £2023 in 2023: (all decluttering), current total £2860 me, £330 for friends & family, £468 charity donations.
  • All added.

    If you don't wish to keep a running total yourself, you can just post amounts as they come and I'll add them onto the spreadsheet which will update totals automatically. Or if you do wish to post totals I'll add them in, no problem.

    Have a Merry Christmas, everyone!! :santa2:
