Free: Snow spray artificial snow (Cheadle Hulme SK8) Two unopened cans of artificial snow, for decorating windows or trees. Probably a little late in the game for this year unfortunately, but they’d certainly keep til next year!

Free: Small child’s shelving unit (Cheadle Hulme SK8) Gifted 70cm H x 63cm W x 30cm D Three shelves, top two have a lip and then the bottom one is flat. The two storage boxes are included. Obviously my kids have had their way with it with stickers, but otherwise it’s a good sound little unit. Stickers will come off with some steel wool, surgical spirit, and a bit of elbow grease if they bother you. The pandas on the side are printed on though, that’s how it came, but obviously you could paint over them.

Free: Coordinating art prints (Cheadle Hulme SK8) Expired Two framed art prints with coordinating designs. For wall hanging only (no “foot” on the frame). 33x28cm, about the size of a sheet of A4 paper.

95d

Free: King size duvet (Cheadle Hulme SK8) Gifted Summer duvet, probably 4.0 tog (it’s not on the tag for some reason). Pet/smoke/insect free home.

95d

Free: Craft storage table (Cheadle Hulme SK8) Gifted Search Amazon for “yitexin rolling craft table”, that’s the exact one. All in decent nick, casters work fine, only getting rid because I’ve upgraded to a larger shelving unit.

95d

Free: Toddler duvet and pillow (Cheadle Hulme SK8) Expired Pillow never used, duvet very lightly used 4.0 tog. Made to fit a toddler bed, not a single bed - a single size duvet cover will be too long for the duvet, but will fit it width wise so can still be used (and obviously pillowcases are standardised). Pet, bug and smoke free home.

95d

Free: Large Mirror (Cheadle Hulme SK8) Gifted Wall mirror 128x50cm. It’s quite heavy so will need strong fixings (not included). No cracks or damage to mirror or frame, a bit dusty.

114d

Free: DVDs (Cheadle Hulme SK8) Gifted Looking to get rid of all of these in one go. L-R: Crime Traveller: the full box set of a BBC Saturday night tv show from the 90s. A detective and his scientist colleague use her time machine to solve crimes. Cheesy but fun. Fern Gully, the Last Rainforest: a kids’ film from the 90s that focuses on environmentalism. Think Avatar but far more charming. Stars Robin Williams, Christian Slater, and Tim Curry. The Third Man: a classic 40s b&w movie starring Orson Welles, once voted the best film of all time by the BFI. A man investigates the death of his friend during WWII, but discovers there’s more to the tale. The Adam & Joe Show: these days Adam Buxton is a podcast king and Joe Cornish is a screenwriter who worked on the first Ant Man movie. But in the 90s, they wrote a very funny sketch show together for Channel 4. This is that show. The Running Man: a Schwarzenegger action vehicle based on a short story by Stephen King. In a dystopian future, Arnie fights to survive a terrifying reality tv show, based on a deadly version of hide and seek.

120d

Free: Collapsible laundry basket (Cheadle Hulme SK8) Gifted IKEA laundry basket for collecting or carrying dirty clothes - it has a lid that velcros shut, and it can also Velcro closed when collapsed too. It’s made of mesh and has handles to carry the contents. In good condition, no tears or damage anywhere to the mesh and Velcro works fine.

134d

Free: Bag of coat hangers (Cheadle Hulme SK8) Gifted Maybe 50 hangers? Mix of different kinds. Would be good for someone who is moving out to uni soon for example.

134d

Free: Tower fan (Cheadle Hulme SK8) Gifted 3 speeds, 120 minute timer Works fine but the bottom kept falling off so I stuck it back on with tape. That means that it can’t oscillate anymore (although if you can figure out a better way to fix it, go for it, because the oscillate button works fine; I could never get it to stay screwed in but maybe you’ll have better luck). Obviously it isn’t pretty, but it’s over 30° today and it’s a free fan 😂

136d

Free: Sewing storage box (Cheadle Hulme SK8) Gifted Box for sewing supplies (empty). In perfect condition. Smoke and pet free home.

141d

Free: DVD box sets (Cheadle Hulme SK8) Gifted The White Queen (adaptation of Philippa Gregory book set in Plantagenet England) The New Adventures of Superman (Superman show from the 90s starring Teri Hatcher) Veronica Mars (teen noir detective show from the 2000s starring Kristen Bell) All are the complete show with all episodes (minus the streaming series of Veronica Mars that was made recently and is only on Prime), so you can find a new favourite.

142d

Free: AKG wired headphones (Cheadle Hulme SK8) Gifted In good working order. Some cosmetic damage on the band where the shiny leatherette is flaking off but it doesn’t affect the usage.

143d

Free: 2x reusable cold packs (Cheadle Hulme SK8) Gifted Can be used as a cold compress or to insulate lunch boxes or cool bags. Gel packs that melt slowly and refreeze solid in the freezer.

149d

Free: Wooden storage case (Cheadle Hulme SK8) Gifted 45cm x 22cm x 5cm Used to hold pencil crayons, there’s a bit of tape still inside where the insert was removed. We don’t need it but it seems a shame to bin it if someone could get some use out of it. Maybe to store pens/pencils again, or matchbox cars?

Free: Foot bath with massage/heat (Cheadle Hulme SK8) Gifted Used maybe half a dozen times over the years, still in perfect condition. It’s just quite big to store for something I don’t really use much!

151d

Free: Glass table on casters (Cheadle Hulme SK8) Gifted Circular glass table, 50cm in diameter x 60cm tall. Moves very smoothly on its casters. The top circle/table top is clear glass and the lower circle/shelf is frosted glass. The sticky pads that keep the top on have failed over time - you can either get new ones, glue it, or just do as I have done and be careful not to knock it!

168d

Free: Freestanding 7 bottle wine rack (Cheadle Hulme SK8) Gifted Capacity for 7 bottles of wine or any other tipple of your choice. Freestanding and has a handle to be moved around. Made of metal. Decorated with a grapevine motif.

173d

Free: 1000 piece jigsaw, complete (Cheadle Hulme SK8) Gifted No pieces missing (as far as I know, anyway, there certainly is no reason why there would be). Completed jigsaw is as in photo, a Japanese scene.

173d

Free: Murder mystery dinner party game (Cheadle Hulme SK8) Gifted Never been opened (still in its shrink wrap); I’ve played a few of these before however and I can tell you they’re a good laugh. Includes everything you need for a fun fancy dress dinner party with friends. Requires a CD player, or the ability to rip a CD onto a digital format for more convenient use.

177d
