Tenner Week Sep 2015: Day 2

It’s Day Two of our latest Tenner Week challenge, and today’s activity is to have a bit of a declutter around your home and find three or more things to sell.

In a hurry? You can run through this exercise in five minutes or less if you can easily think of things you’d like to sell. Just grab three items and put them to one side for tomorrow (we’re not selling them today).

Do you have a junk cupboard, a messy spare room or a couple of random creates somewhere at home? That might be a good place to start looking…

If you have more time, consider having a declutter or clean up of a room, a cupboard, or part of a shed or garage. To make the most money, look for three high value items or collect up a larger collection of several lower cost things.

What I’m up to

Yesterday’s menu plan went okay, which is lucky considering how little there is in the storecupboard. We had flour tortillas from the freezer, salsa made from home grown tomatoes, cheese, pinto beans, plain yogurt and some Quorn pieces. Easy Monday night dinner and tasty too. Made proper coffee at home in the morning as well, instead of going out for one.

I also stayed out of the online shops, in spite of being sent some very tempting deals and codes, so I managed a no-spend day.

Today’s going to be different because we’re almost out of milk already… For today I’ve also been tidying up my wardrobe for the new season and have picked out a handbag and a couple of pairs of shoes to sell.

Money spent yesterday: £0.00

Money spent in total: £0.00
