Clothes - Making Progress

I had a useful session this afternoon sorting through my shirts. I'm almost down to my target of 17.

I'm also now gearing myself up to tackling the guest room cupboard where most of my stuff is stored. I feel I've got some tough decisions ahead of me.

On a happier note, my first eBay auction ended today with most of the sale items going - all for more than I'd been offered by MusicMagpie. The second auction is now underway...

Feedback already! The 100 Item Challenge

Since we launched our website www.100itemchallenge.com we have inspired some of our readers to start clearing out their items and focusing on what is important to them.

One reader, Henry, read the first posting we made on Monday and started clearing our a cupboard, so far he's had one trip to the tip will a hatchback filled to breaking point and 3 boxes of goodies have been passed to a local charity shop.  Some old gadgets have been snapped up on ebay.  The proceeds of the sales has totally funded the train fair, theatre tickets and an overnights stay in London at the end of the month.  For a few hours toil he's creating an new life experience.

In addition he has commented, 'emptying the cupboards has been like a weightwatchers exercise for the soul'.  It had been niggling him about the state of the cupboard, and even though the door was closed, he still knew it had to be done.

Bravo Henry, we applaud you, good luck with the rest of your rooms.

DVDs on Ebay

I've been looking through my DVD collection, which although not large contains a number of titles that I'm unlikely to ever watch again (and a couple still in the shrink-wrap).

So the most valuable of them (courtesy of a search on Amazon) are now on Ebay. The rest (and any that don't sell) will be off to MusicMagpie before you can say "declutter".

My Ebay name is obba2020 if you are interested!
