Well I'm still going and loving it lol. Have listed quite a few of my Disney items on Facebook selling groups and Ebay.

More items into the Charity bags, and more in the bin.

We started taking our Christmas decorations down today and have added some of them to the Charity bag also. Everything else that wasn't taken down today (tree etc) will remain up until Saturday but don't think there's much else to be donated.

Sounds like you have been very busy. Fingers crossed for lots of sales soon. Are you sorting randomly or by room? I cant quite decide on a method :rotfl:

I'm sorting randomly at the moment but I've chucked out the item for today! It was a broken guitar so of no use to anyone. Will update my sig what fun

It all adds up- and its two birds and one stone. :j

Ive found dvds and ps4 games to be selling very well over the last few days not huge amount or anything but selling very quickly. That reminds me I have made more and added it to my signature.

Was so motivated by the prompt sales that I am inspired to find more dvds/games. Hope yours sell quickly too.

Thanks hopefully they do had a couple of issues with non-paying bidders recently so hopefully that won't come up again. Speaking of dvd's that sell quickly i put season one of doctor who up a couple of weeks ago and got £10 for it i was very surprised, i guess if people want it they will pay for it

Randomly lol. I did start in my bedroom, but have found myself getting rid of stuff as I walk through the house:rotfl: I haven't touched the attic yet, but will do that when the tree comes down on Saturday lol.

Two books and a decorative tin (I had to search for these, slightly worried about finding 3 things a day for the rest of the year!)

Was a bit busy today so nothing major but:
took down the Christmas tree and disposed of some broken decorations and some that I didn't really like. I think I was keeping them for sentimental reasons.
Binned some more half empty bottles of toiletries
Defrosted the small freezer and binned some things that had been there for years. I hate waste of food but, honestly, it was never going to be used.
I really like the idea of decluttering gin!

Have had another few eBay sales - had a nice pile to take to the post office today- was a lovely feeling to get some things gone.

Have decided to see if I cant declutter our sideboard for the remainder of this week (as well as any random bits I find throughout the house). Just thought it would be nice to get one area done. So that's 3 drawers and 3 cupboards. Its mainly toys in there but decluttering will help to make space for all the new Christmas toys... and make it easier to find things.

Have just done one drawer and found a set of alphabet stamps we don't use- just listing them now.

I best crack on and do the other drawers after as that's only one item!

Well done everyone I'm very impressed with the amount of stuff your all getting rid of. I may have to up my game!

I took all of the xmas toy packaging to the dump today and returned an unwanted curtain to Argos. So that's two things today I also listed lots of stuff on facebook. No bites but will have to give it a time limit to how long i'm going to keep it before it sells or ends up in the charity shop
