Shell they were advertised for car boot/ jumble sale etc so no probs. I wouldnt do it unless it specified it. TBH though if I gave something away on freecycle then I dont actually care what they do with it cos I dont want it. My conscience wouldnt let me do that though as I would feel a bit funny about it.5 Year plan. April 2020 to June 2025- CC and mortgage free by time I'm 60
Currently CC £23,674.36 /£14,895.41/£14315.42
Mortgage £28,214.65/ £26,254.71/ £25,746.43
By end 2020 I want CC at £ 19,000.00.
By end 2021 I want CC at £10,000.000 -

the people who gave these books away must have more money than sense!!!!!!! some of them are worth a fair bit. Most will go to the car boot sale and a lot of them I want to read first and then sell. x5 Year plan. April 2020 to June 2025- CC and mortgage free by time I'm 60

I have a few hundred books that I would love to give away.Ive sold a few on e-bay and green metropolis but I have a lot that wont shift and are taking up so much space in my shed.I would love to car boot them but I work weekends and the car boots in my area are always on Sundays.I was thinking of donating them to a local church or hospice for when they have a jumble sale (do they still exist?).I just cant put up with them any longer and its a shame to tip them0
