What do you do with your old DVD's and Games?



Do you have a house full of DVD's and Video Games that are no longer watched or played with?

My boys are outgrowing their collection of The Wiggles, Thomas and Fireman Sam and I have been looking for things to do with them and try and make some money for them without the hassle of taking them to a car boot sale or the hated eBay (which I find doesn't give me a good return).

When I came across selling DVDs with musicMagpie.  musicMagpie.co.uk allows you to turn your old CDs, DVDs and Games into cash instantly. Just enter the barcodes of your CDs, DVDs or Games and they tell you how much they are worth. You can even download an app, so you can just scan in the barcodes on your phone.

You do not even have to pay for postage as they have a Freepost service. When you complete your order you can download and print the Freepost labels or if you do not have a printer they will mail them direct to you. All you have to do then, is attach these to your box and drop it off at your local Post Office.

If you want to sell computer games for cash, in addition to the DVD's and have over 50 items to post, you can either use the Freepost service or save yourself a trip to the Post Office and use the FREE, fully insured Courier Service, so again it costs you nothing to send us your items.  Just choose a date that suits you, and we’ll come and collect your old CDs, DVDs and Games from you - for FREE, which means you can make extra CASH without leaving the comfort of your home.

If you would normally just donate your old games and DVDs to charity, you can still use musicMagpie and nominate one of a number, including Breast Cancer Care or The Children's Society.

    This sounds great. We use charity shops, ebay and freecycle but I've never heard of this one. I'll give it a try.

Win a £60 Amazon Voucher with Barclaycard Freedom Rewards and A Thrifty Mum

Barclaycard Freedom Reward Card asked me to take their  60 second survey to see what shopping tribe I was part off .   Barclaycard and Brunel University have collaborated to research the modern way in which we shop and how UK shoppers can now be defined into four new shopping tribes.  I am a Bargain Hunter Gatherer: You're an expert at collecting the best tools, voucher codes and loyalty cards to make your budget go as far as possible, week in, week out. While the kids are doing their homework, you're doing yours - grabbing the best savings for your family.

Bissell Vac and Steam Machine Review and Giveaway

I have hard floors downstairs which I love.  They are much more practical than carpet with 2 mucky boys and a dog. Over the past 8 years I have tried all sorts of ways to keep them clean and I think I have finally found the product that does that for me. It is the  Bissell Vac and Steam Machine .  This amazing suel action machine vacuums and steam cleans either independently or at the same time.  It means that I have done away with my vacuum and steam cleaner downstairs (which I gave to my brother in law). What I like: You can either vacuum or steam clean or do both It is lightweight and easy to manoeuvre The handle is adjustable great for a home with people of different heights and for getting the kids involved. You need no chemicals The pads are washable and reusable It comes with a two year guarantee It warms up fast (within 30 seconds) so no long wait to start cleaning It costs under £100 It is space saving.  No need for a separate vacuum,...

Dumping the tumble dryer and Ecoforce giveaway

We have a tumble dryer, but it broke before christmas and we  couldn't afford to get it repaired, so I have been managing with an old fashioned wooden clothes rail and hanging bedding over the doors to dry, This last would of weeks however, I have been hanging the washing outside and it has been drying much quicker and with less creases, so I am going to take the plunge and instead of getting the dryer replaced I am going to give it away. Ecoforce heard me on twitter bemoaning the fact that I was chasing laundry round the garden as my pegs were not working and very kindly sent me some of their Ecoforce pegs to try and they have been fab. So in conjunction with Ecoforce I have a year's supply of green cleaning and washing up wonder products worth £50 comprising the following: EcoForce Peg Basket x 1 EcoForce Clothes Line x1 EcoForce Pegs x 2 packs Several of each of: EcoForce sponges, scourer...
