Best of  with it, GeordieGirl; it sounds as though it's getting you down rather. I've got some heirloom-y things that may just hang about until my own heirs have to make decisions about them.

Cleaned the fridge today; then decided to take all the fridge magnets off and clean the door. Then steeled myself and put all the fridge magnets in the bin.
Except two: one has the emergency number to be called in the event of a power cut; the other says: Gardening forever, housework whenever.

if you dont want the figures and dont need the money, i would still charity shop them. ive charity shopped lots that i could have sold, bt its definatley easier. ebay can be a false economy. the things i have sold have sold for the lowest bids,and its frustrating when you know worth more. and such a faff packaging and post office and then people chasing you up if it takes a day longer than the estimate to arrive
i need to have another go at my wardrobe.... we should start a thread for all the stuff we dont want and offer to give away to each other. one fetchie's trash is another fetchie's treasure??

The Mighty Fleecy
I have a very high value threshold for selling stuff on eBay nowadays for those reasons. And if they’re vaguely valuable then actually that’s doing the charity shop a favour because it’s a good donation for them which they can make decent money out of.
My understairs cupboard is full of donation stuff now, I should probably drop some bags off at the clothes and book bins. I’m pretty ruthless nowadays
