I'm absolutely blown away by everyone's achievements on here! I wish I found this thread a few months back as I've decluttered loads to CS (at least ten charity bags full) and made a few sales on ebay. I'm making space for when my chap moves in (who's also a bit of a hoarder, just of different things), and I've ground to a halt recently, so I'd love to join this thread if I may, to get me motivated again? I guess I'll be starting at item number 1 . Maybe a target of 40 items before Christmas?

Off to a flying start!:j
1-4: books ready to go to CS
5-6: candle holders ditto
7: one curver box full of recycling
8: one pair of canvas shoes well beyond repair - bin
9: knackered and dusty old video recorder that I didn't even know I had - bin
10: one odd shoe - tried without success for four years to find its partner and don't even like it anymore - bin
11: knackered DVD - bin
12: five pairs of past it tights - bin
13: packet of non-veggie sweets from veggie son - in my tum!
14: DVD - CS

I thought I had already decluttered so much before finding this challenge that I'd be struggling with the "seriously sentimental" stuff. I guess I was wrong! Maybe I'll need to adjust my target.

I'm still decluttering, mostly by the Kondo method but this month I've been playing the mins game Ie get rid of 1 thing on day one, two things on day 2 and so on.
We've done a tip run today, and last Saturday we did four! So stuff is leaving! Just the mins game should see me almost 500 items less by 31st

Well done to eveyone on the kondoing/decluttering they are doing.
