    forgot to mention anyone doing swagbucks, new swago board went live 5pm yesterday.

    don't forget when you mark off the squares, to check you spin and win.

    someone won the big one in a facebook group.

    I won the odd point, but it all adds up.

    Ooh - I did not know about this or what it was... now investigating whilst stuck under a sleeping baby..Thanks!

    I couldn't use it either, but I hope someone did. I am down to a small box of books, 2 DVDs, the odd piece of clothing and a handful of bric a brac to sell. Unfortunately no one seems to want my junk on eBay or Ziffit/Magpie/WBB! I have tried to relist as bundles and am waiting for everything to pick up post holidays to see what happens. I don't really want to throw it out as I would rather it was reused by someone, so will have to come up with a plan B.

    Plan B , facebook selling pages, gumtree, netmums selling pages, shpock phone app, mercari, craigslist, and other selling sites online.

    Thanks Aesop! I find the trouble with this stuff is that I hate listing it on eBay, then if I need to sell or give away elsewhere I am even less motivated as I had already listed it once.. will try in September to reduce the small pile of junk!

    Achh.. need to go.. baby is awake and trying to press all the keys on my laptop! :rotfl:

  • Received £5.03 from Job Spotter this morning, bringing my total to £51.10!

    No replies yet to my FB china plate post :( But I need to sort out more this week so that might prompt some interested parties! Also need to sort out the cups and saucers and the cake stands.

    I sold my son's reins when he was 2,they didn't work as he was always pulling and running away. Sold them for £3 to a grandmother who came to collect them.

    Anyone else sell anything else they wouldn't consider unusual but sold?

    Dog bowls? Cat collars? Dog coats etc

    Glad the reins were of some use to someone else, if not for you:T


    I've never owned a dog, not since childhood anyway, and my cats have never tended to have much equipment that I could sell on. Anyway, as soon as one cat sadly passes away another hungry stray tends to turn up on the doorstep:rotfl:


    I did once sell a cat carrier at a car boot sale years ago. It was a nightmare to fasten but the lady who bought it said it was exactly the same as the one she had before and she'd learned the knack of doing it;)
  • £15 for a Facebook sale - 2 folding garden chairs. My mum gave them to me after she closed her caravan, they must have been 10 years old but decent condition. I sold for £10, drove to deliver 2 miles away and buyer insisted on giving me £5 for delivering. They were bought 30 minutes after I put them on.

    Well done on the sale. It's lovely that you met a nice buyer who appreciated the effort you put in:T

    Your chairs have just reminded me that I still have 2 child's folding deckchairs in the shed. They're the old fashioned canvas type but plain green rather than stripy. Still in good condition but the canvas is really grubby. They were like it when I got them, they were among a lot of other stuff on the grass verge outside someone's house with a sign saying 'free to take away'. I left the other stuff but thought the chairs might be saleable once cleaned up. Never got round to doing anything about them and another summer is practically over. Typical!:o

    Might come in handy if we have nice autumn. Might be worth a clean.
  • It's been really warm the past few days CBC, I agree with Aesop - give them a clean anyway and keep an eye on the forecast for your next car boot!
