Daisydot - it shows how much [money for nothing] that goes into the tip, why not put items into a Charity shop? People are SO lazy.
I agree. Some of the up-cycled things I wouldn't give room to. Often when at the tip I want to grab stuff, "I can use *that*!" ...... I bought back C.mas decorations from Mum's house (up for sale) which go back to the 1950s. Each brings back a memory. The box went into the loft 'to be sorted' .........
Also: Sarah, Danny etc. don't add their travelling costs nor time so it 'money for nothing' because they do a lot between fetching items from the tip - mending, up-cycling, going back to the thrower to show what has been done with it - all takes time and petrol!
