I knit and crochet blankets, beanies, scarves and jumpers for charity and have often been given wool because I usually mention it is for charity. Sometimes the variety of wool is not my first choice but I make an effort to make it into something and then donate.<br />I have also received a bundle of travel toiletries from freecycle and and didn't have to buy toiletries for sometime. Not sure why they gave them away and didn't use them themselves. I walk most days and always pick up cans, and anything else which may be useful, if it is not I donate it to one of our thrift shops. <br />Regards<br />MelindaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3556657999892839298.post-68407142330399279062016-11-23T09:44:32.105+00:002016-11-23T09:44:32.105+00:00You had a good haul Ilona.

I gave the haul of baby shampoo to a friend who had just become a grandmother, and we are using the remainder. Still got around half a dozen bottles of shampoo left (all Avon, which I used to sell).<br /><br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11311772771499714103noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3556657999892839298.post-47991711874471059462016-11-23T07:09:12.594+00:002016-11-23T07:09:12.594+00:00Monday was a washout here but Tuesday was quite br...Monday was a washout here but Tuesday was quite bright most of the time. I to never turn anything away you never know what you might get. Glad you can make use of the bed and look forward to seeing the bags.<br />I was so lucky on Saturday in the charity shop I work for. I have been looking for a little black dress ( I never wear black but have to have it for a very special occasion in a couple of weeks time) when a very nice lady came in with a small bag of items and it in was the perfect dress for me, the label was still on it said Size 14 price £19.99 it was short sleeves and came to just below the knee and had a round collar I could not believe my luck, so I asked the manageress to price it and she said £5.00 so I was a very lucky lady.<br /><br />Enjoy the day.<br />Hazelhazel c UK https://www.blogger.com/profile/01638654030434369177noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3556657999892839298.post-7067852704617074372016-11-22T21:02:48.092+00:002016-11-22T21:02:48.092+00:00The rain was torrential yesterday, today was cold ...The rain was torrential yesterday, today was cold and we had some more rain,but I still managed a little walk.
