I've been away and off-line- nothing at all to do with having negative Karma!! Just couldn't get near a P.C. Daughter and son-in-law were decorating and put it upstairs. Daughter and I browsing round " dagfield's" Craft and Antique near Nantwich. She had previously found a book which turned to be an out-of-print edition- she'd got it for £3.50- and sold it on ebay for £300!!!!!!!! I've got a lot of old books at home, so when Mr Wiggy came to collect me- I asked him to bring them. No use to us. I'm still doing a bit of work- and I just said she could have them and see what she could get for them. Results were surprising- One I'd been told was valuable turned out to only be worth 60 Euros- but a little collection of children's stories I once bought for the children at a Charity Event "white elephant stall" turned out to be worth $400 in the U.S. So- you never know!! Be careful what you chuck out in charity bags!!!

At the end of every day I put all my silver and copper change into a money box. After 2 months I've now got over £150 saved up.
Good way of saving money...

my mum had the same luck as your daughter wiggy, she bought a book in the book sale at the library where she works for 20p, turns out it was selling second hand on amazon for £200. needless to say she was rather happy!!
