Just coming over having updated the February Challenge page and am keen to keep going!
Will be getting rid of items by various means, namely ebay, music magpie, secondhand shop and charity. Hadn't thought about the facebook selling pages, but people do rave about them, so might give them a go!
No monetary value aim this month - just to de-clutter!!
Good luck everyone!!Official DFW Nerd Club #20 :cool: Proud To Be Dealing With My DebtsDFW Long Hauler #109

My goal is to get rid of something each day. Ideally for money, but if not that is okay as I need to declutter.0

Well done craftingmad!
I have listed a load on ebay today as I'm relieved to see they've sent an offer of up to 100 free listings in March. Woohoo more to add tomorrow and have some bits to take to charity this week which will be a decluttering start0 -
Off to a positive start today - one of my items sold on eBay which I relisted as it didn't sell last week (always worth a go!) and two of my other items received bids today. Any money I make will be put towards financing my move... deposit, first months rent, movers etc.
Donated a massive sack full of things to charity as well which I am delighted about. Still doesn't seem to have made a visible dent in the amount of things in the flat, but every little helps!Trying to make my way on my MSE adventure.. Debt free since June 2018:j
