The only problem you might have is that some people are embarrassed about taking second hand goods. I get some funny looks when I talk about my bargain finds in charity shops.

I've been trying to encourage something similar at the office these past couple of weeks. We're going through a staff shuffle and re-org so it means a physical move as well We are all doing an early Spring clean on the floor and it's been amazing what I've found. We do try to donate to various charities plus I sent 4 boxes of things off to a local school yesterday - and then we try to get staff to take things to re-use rather than throwing it out. I encourage people to take things for kids crafts etc. so that it doesn't have to be thrown out so it's great to see adults doing the same thing.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3556657999892839298.post-9522638018218898472015-02-24T23:42:01.726+00:002015-02-24T23:42:01.726+00:00Some good finds there Ilona.
