    It must be a widespread problem as it also happened to my pack.

    Also on the subject of ebay we went to take the recycling to Sainsbobs yesterday - our sainsbobs has as well as the usual suspects, Oxfam cloth recycling bins, plastic recycling and Oxfam book bank so its very convenient to take everything at once.

    Very oddly people seem to leave random other things there as well - its not close to a car boot sale so its not items that didn't sell and anyway its usually mid week when we go. And these items are very random.

    Quite often there are books in perfectly good condition posted in the cardboard recycling so we fetch these out and put them into the book bank - perhaps people don't notice a bright green bin.

    Last week we found a marks and Spencers Christmas musical biscuit tin which is going to be my new sewing box.

    Previously there was a new very long length of hose pipe so OH collected this and got connectors and he can now hose down the cars around the front of the house using the outside tap by the backdoor.

    Also white straw baskets just left behind the bins, again new these now house the toiletries bits and pieces and these were perfect when the en suite was revamped.

    Another time it was a collection of small children's models like the incredible hulk and my little pony which looked new but I washed them anyway and these will go into the Christmas shoe boxes.

    Yesterday we found a brand new, unmarked dressmakers dummy so after a bit of dithering we took it apart and got it into the car and I can now use it to display clothing for ebay sales pics - I like to do them in the garden but most days its raining or windy so I end up not bothering to list anything as I cant get good photos - so this is a problem solved :j

    A question please for anyone who has marks Sparks.

    I noticed this morning when I was looking at the new offers that I am very close to the 1400 point level which apparently is very exciting ;)

    "At 14000 sparks you'll be invited to our special events. Be inspired as we showcase our fabulous ranges, or pick up unique styling, beauty and cooking tips"

    has anyone else reached this dizzy heights and have you been swamped with fantastic Marks special events offers and if so what were these?

    I've only got about 180 to go. I took a couple of receipts in today and got the points added on but I think its already included these. Its taken since October 2015 to collect these, since the very beginning, a few food shops, a few sales and a few badly fitting items so I don't think I've actually spent that much ...
