I know we are over a third of the way through February, but I have to set some serious targets for this month as I've been a bit too complacent so far this month and I need to generate some cash to pay for urgent maintenance repairs. So my targets are:
1). Sort out some stuff I don't use any more
2). Sell sorted stuff
3). Raise £500 from this exercise.

Thank you.
I do sort through the clothes and if there is anything of note I sell it, if not, it all goes in the charity bags.
I do know that if you have any m and s clothes oxfam used to give you a £5 m and s voucher if you took a few of said items into their shops.
Similarly, H and M used to give out £5 off a £30 spend voucher for every bag of clothes taken into their shops. ( I think it included curtains and bedding etc too, good stuff and rags too).
Though I'm not sure if these incentives are still ongoing.GE 36 *MFD may 2043
