Unused mug with cute teddy picture (Monks Hill CR2)
This was just in the cupboard, it has never been used. I don’t even know why I have it! It appears to be in good condition, but it has been stored for quite a long time. If you can’t collect fairly soon., It can go to a charity shop, but I thought that somebody might like it!

Booklet of clear pockets for cards, craft components etc. (Monks Hill CR2)
Expired
This is a display book with lots of clear pockets suitable to protect a card or photo 5” x 7”. The leaves are in great condition, the outer cover needs some repair, maybe reinforce with some fancy tape or whatever. Pasting ribbons works well and makes it pretty! This little album is too good to throw away, I was using it to display my greetings cards but I no longer need it. If you do crafts, you can surely do it up and use to store your papercraft bits or of course, photos and cards. Please let me know if you would like it and when you could collect. Thank you.

Withdrawn
Christmas or other gifting coming up, or fund raisers and still a few boot fairs to go! So here are 3 gift bags and a lovely big gold carrier. Please collect soon. Let me know when you can come, if not soon, I will make other arrangements as I need to get clear. Thank you.

Black A4 card and white A4 card - Monks Hill area (Monks Hill CR2)
I have some sheets of this white card, I don’t want what is left in the packet, because my printer doesn’t like it. One side is slightly shiny. The black is matt on both sides. I have had it sat there some time and only used some of it, I don’t need it. So maybe this card would be useful to someone for art or craft projects? Let me know if you can collect. My time is limited and I can’t leave it outside as it would warp, so please liaise with me. I am in the Monks Hill area. Thank you.

"I Love Hamsters" Ceramic Mug (Monks Hill CR2)
Withdrawn
Nothing wrong with this, I am just clearing out cupboards and downsizing. I like hamsters but there might be someone who loves them more and maybe has them as pets? If you don’t want to use this mug for your hot chocolate, you could use it for pencils. It's clean and has no damage, it's made by a company called "Otter House". Ploase let me know when you could collect. A mobile number is useful for liaising by text, I won’t keep the details. Thank you.

2 x Silicone Egg-Poaching Cups - old but unused (Monks Hill CR2)
Withdrawn
Before I dispose of these, would anybody like these egg poaching cups? I never used them and as much as I love a poached egg, I do not have a hob, so I can’t use them, as you’re supposed to do the poaching in a pan. They have been stored in a drawer for quite some time but to my knowledge have not been used. Please collect soon otherwise they will be disposed of, thank you.

Spray-on party hair colours, little bit left? (Monks Hill CR2)
Withdrawn
I have these leftover spray colours. I really don’t know how much is left in each can, probably not much (you don’t get much in them when they’re new!). But being stuck at home with a serious injury, I’m not going to any party any time soon! So would you like to try these before I dispose of them?

2 plain white tiles 6ins square (Monks Hill CR2)
Gifted
I still have these, I would like someone to have them! The handicraft clearout continues: I was using these plain white tiles to paint on and I have unearthed 2 spare ones. Let me know if they are of use, I don’t want to throw good stuff away but I have to do some clearing! I am in the Monks Hill area and could feasibly leave these out in a small, clean retail bag, as they shouldn’t be affected by the bad weather. But we can liaise about collection if this is of interest. I have just re-posted this, as I still have them. I am not going to get round to doing any handicraft work myself until the weather gets warmer, so let me know if you would like them!

1 ltr carton of semi-skimmed goat’s milk, tiny amount usef (Monks Hill CR2)
Withdrawn
Would anybody like this? It was got for me to try in my tea, as the product I normally use has been discontinued. Unfortunately, I did not get on with it. The carton was only opened this morning and just a splash of it used for one cup of tea and the carton is being kept in the fridge. I really do not want us to go to waste! If you want this, please give me a time when you wish to call and please be reliable. I am in the monks Hill area and look forward to hearing from you.

Strong cardboard box for packaging, moving etc.” (Monks Hill CR2)
Expired
I held onto cardboard boxes, because I was packing and posting stuff, but not doing that at present, so I will start clearing the excess. This is a nice, sturdy box that held a small household appliance, would you like it? It measures 13ins x11ins and 14ins high. Please tell me when you can collect it, if nobody wants it, it goes in the recycling and I hate having to crush nice strong boxes that would be useful as they are.Today would be a good day if you can manage it, I will need to leave it out on my doorstep for you, so let’s liaise and please be accurate and reliable. Thank you!

Estee Lauder liquid makeup (Monks Hill CR2)
Gifted
Please read this thoroughly, this is expensive make up and the bottle is 2/3 full. The only reason I’m offering it is because I have enough make up and I have used this one very successfully as a concealer. However, because it’s good coverage and I only need a tiny amount, if I keep this, I’ll be using it for the next five years! Because shades are so hard to match to individual skin tones, I would prefer this to go to somebody who does other people’s make up, so that there is a choice of recipients. The colour is described as “Tawny”, it’s a sort of mid-beige. Please don’t ask for this just because you can, please tell me why you want it. i’m not in a hurry to give this away, so if I do, I want it to count! Thank you.

Small lidded storage box (labelled as shoe storage) (Monks Hill CR2)
Gifted
I have just liberated this storage box, it had a few bits and pieces in it and I need to clear the space, so it's yours if you would like it. It measures 36cm x 26cm and 14cm high. Labelled as being for shoes, but obviously you can put what you want in it! If you wish to collect, please let me know when you can come and please be reliable. I am currently incapacitated, so if the weather is ok, I can leave it outside. Otherwise I can hand it over if you can stick to an agreed time and day. I am in the Monks Hill area. Thank you.

Glasses (spectacles) cases - nice condition (Monks Hill CR2)
Expired
Here are 3 cases for your specs, sunglasses etc Two of these are good quality hard cases, which could also be used to store other bits, they have spring closures and are sturdy and stylish too. One wallet type case is also included. I use these also for clip-ons, but these are surplus to requirements. Must go as one lot. I am in the Monks Hill area. Thank you.

Cardboard boxes (Monks Hill CR2)
Expired
Does anybody want any good cardboard boxes for packing/storage or maybe for sending stuff via eBay or the like? People keep giving me boxes, which I was using for similar purposes but I now have quite a collection! I need to trim down but these are too useful and useable to throw away. Let me know if you want anything. You can ask for one or more.

Small linen-lined storage basket/box, base needs gluing back (Monks Hill CR2)
Expired
This is lovely, it’s a little storage receptacle, with slatted sides (bamboo I think), rectangular, about 20cm x 39cm, open (not lidded). It has a nice, linen liner. The hardboard base has come away but is easily glued back in place. It can enjoy further life for a new owner, as I don’t need it but it’s too nice to throw away. Thank you.

Clean bubble wrap (Monks Hill CR2)
Expired
Does anyone have some clean bubble wrap? I will happily take it rather than your throwing it away, but I don't want to travel out too far. (I am in the Selsdon area.) So let me know where you are please. I will do my best to fit into your schedule if you let me know when you would like me to come and pick it up. Thank you very much!

Last year’s Week To View small diary, unused (Monks Hill CR2)
Expired
Does anybody want this? I bought it for 2024 but never used it. Could it be handy as a little notebook, for kids to scribble ink or for an art project? Seems sad to throw it away! £1 coin is for scale , NOT included in the giveaway!

Very old guitar tuner - spares/project? + mini dv cassette (Monks Hill CR2)
Gifted
A couple of items from an ongoing clearout in case there are any tinkerers/enthusiasts or even artists who would like these before they go to landfill. The guitar tuner is very old, I can’t get the back open, so I really don’t know what it’s like inside, but maybe you can do something with it. The mini digital videocassette is still sealed up but must be ancient! But you might have a use for it! I prefer these to be collected together, but please let me know what you think. Thank you.

Candles/Glass candle jars, for use and upcycling (Monks Hill CR2)
Gifted
I want these to go to someone who actually has an interest in re-purposing candles. I used to do it myself and I know there was someone on here who did it. You can clean out empty the holders and re-make or re-use. Or you can put tea lights in them! One of these is brand new and unused (little jasmine one, still sealed) and one has been used a little bit (I didn’t like the perfume.) Please tell me why you want these: if you cherry-pick or take and then throw the used stuff away, just because you want a freebie, you’re out of luck. They must all go at once to a genuine upcycler, otherwise I will just keep them. Thank you. Please be polite and reliable, tell me when you could collect.

Ring binder, folder, document storage etc. All VGC (Monks Hill CR2)
Expired
Here are some items for storing documents, all hardly or never used. They have been stored, but in very good condition. I kept them, knowing I will use them one day but quite frankly, if the need comes up in future, I’ll go out and buy another one. I need to get these cleared and they must all go in one lot, so please only ask for them if you will genuinely use them all. Let me know when you can pick them up and PLEASE be reliable! Thank you.

Handbag mirror or old handbag to break up for little mirror (Monks Hill CR2)
Received
I need a small mirror, the type you would find incorporated in a handbag, or even an old, beaten up handbag that I could break up to take out the mirror. Or possibly an old makeup palette, or even a compact, where I can remove a mirror. This is for a restoration project. Thank you

Bathroom mat (Monks Hill CR2)
Expired
Plenty of life left in this but I no longer need it. Would someone like to take it before I end up throwing it away? It would benefit from a clean, I believe it’s machine washable. Or could be useful for the garden to suppress weeds? Let me know when you can collect. Thank you.

Childproof locking strap for cupboard, fridge etc. (Monks Hill CR2)
Expired
Clearing out a drawer, does anyone want this before I throw it away? I bought a pack of them years ago, didn’t use this last one. This has been stored for a long time and a little dingy on top, will probably clean up. The adhesive pads are covered and may be still good - the ones I have used are very strong. I actually got them to stop my cats opening the fridge and cupboards! Great for safety if there are children around, though. Let me know when you could collect. Thank you.

2 collectable liqueur bottles, 1 full violet liqueur (Monks Hill CR2)
Gifted
These are decorative bottles which are liked by collectors are used for home decor. The rose one needs cleaning out (although I kept it as it is, because it’s pretty, but the drink inside is now not for consumption.) The violet liqueur (“Violette”) has never been opened and should be usable if desired, I kept it like that, because again it’s decorative as is. I understand that the liqueur can also be used to add to cakes, I have never tried as I’m hopeless at baking. Anyway, I just need to clear stuff, so would somebody like these? 19cm and 16cm high. A 500ml bottle of water is shown next to them, just for scale - not included! Please let me know when you could collect, not late evening, please. NB: As this is an alcohol product, please confirm that you are over 18 in your reply. Thank you.

Cat litter (clay) - bag 2 thirds full (Monks Hill CR2)

Does anybody want this bag of cat litter? These are clay granules, I bought this for a different project (not cat related!) and don’t need the rest. Seems stupid to waste it, so please collect if of use to you. All I ask is that you stick to any arrangement to collect. Please, not late evening and not Wednesday. Let me know a day and time.

Sweet set of 3 small nesting boxes. 12cm cube (Monks Hill CR2)
Gifted
This is a little set of cubic storage (or gift?) boxes in black and black and white. The largest one is about 12cm cubed and the other two fit inside. They each have a modernistic decorative feature, like a round “washer” on top. The big one is very slightly age-darkened inside but they look good and are strongly built, so quite substantial. I once used them for displays, but they have been stored for some time and I need to make space now. Please let me know when you could collect. (Not late evening or weekend, thanks.)

Large bag of packing chips (Monks Hill CR2)

If you have a mobile, it’s useful to have the number so that we can liaise by text (I will delete the number afterwards). Or contact me here, please let me know when you can collect. Thank you.

Black storage box with lid and large plastic crate, no lid. (Monks Hill CR2)
Expired
A small black plastic storage box with lid, it came from Ikea but not needed. Needs a clean, but nothing at all wrong with it, very useful item. The larger box, also from Ikea, does not have its lid but is useful for tidying items like toys, etc. - or even for moving. I prefer if they are collected together. Let me know when you could collect, my own time is limited so let’s arrange something. Please be reliable and if you have a mobile number, it’s useful to have, so we can liaise. (I won’t keep the number.) Thank you.

Body Shop Eau de Toilette spray, one left (Monks Hill CR2)
Expired
Old and the fragrance weaker than originally, but still pretty good! I have one left to offer (Javari): the writing is coming off the bottle. Still fragrant, even though not as strong as the perfume was originally. I would describe it as light and citrussy, with a powdery and slightly leathery dry down, but obviously weakened because it is old. The writing and decoration on the bottle is flaking off. It has a spray mechanism with a protective cap. I would keep it and use it but I don’t like the perfume anyway (maybe these belonged to someone else, I don’t know!). Unearthed after a clear out but before I throw this away, maybe you would like it? Please give me a day and time that you could collect and if you have a mobile number so we can text, even better. I need them gone soon, as my own time is limited. Thank you.
