Free: Ikea Antonious Laundry Bag (Cotham Ward BS6) Expired Consists of a metal frame with a fabric bag with velcro fastenings. The bag used to have plastic stiffeners in the base and in the "lid" flap, but it no longer has these, so the bag is a bit more limp than was intended.

Free: Pet Carrier (Cotham Ward BS6) Expired Petgear pet carrier - we used it for a cat. Somewhat worn by years of use, but still useable. The main defect is that one of the plastic plugs that hold the door in place is missing. (This can be seen in the photo looking upwards at the door; compare the two round sockets and you will see the one on the left has a plug, while the one on the right doesn't.) This means that when the door is open, the door is apt to fall off, but when the door is closed and locked, it is secure.
