Last year lots of us donated children's clothes to each other totally free for nothing iin return (some asks for postage which is fine) .

So thought a new thread was needed old one pretty full and way down board.

Any clothes child or adult can be posted

What a fab idea.

DD won't get anymore wear out her summer dresses. Not school ones just tesco, asda etc.

They are 5/6 of anyone wants them for next summer.

I have two new and unworn black cycling shorts (age 8/9) from Sainsbury's if anyone needs them. Happy to pay postage.

pugsake · 19/09/2016 18:35

Excuse my crap photography skills. That's the style they are in.

I'm not bothered about postage but won't be able to post till Saturday (pay-day)

FastDay I'd be really grateful for anything in a size 12.

fastdaytears · 19/09/2016 20:34

Awesome Bubble do you need casual? Or worky? Or something different?

Bubblebloodypop · 19/09/2016 20:54

Casual please (SAHM) any jeans, long sleeved t-shirts or jumpers would be really helpful. I'll happily pay postage.

fastdaytears · 19/09/2016 21:00

No no I'm happy to post! I'll sort through and see what might be good for you

acsec · 19/09/2016 21:05

Scootinfun - I'll have a root through DSS wardrobe this week and let you know, I'm sure he has some hoodies he's grown out of.

I'll also offer anything else I find in his wardrobe that doesn't fit him. Probably look on Wednesday as I have antenatal class and hairdresser tomorrow and need to finish sorting out my bedroom to put the Moses basket in!

Bubblebloodypop · 19/09/2016 21:14

fastday thank you Smile

scootinFun · 19/09/2016 22:52

Ah thanks so much acsec I really appreciate it!!

acsec · 20/09/2016 12:31

Scootinfun the grey/ blue hoodie is size 12/13 but DSS is 12 and it doesn't fit him.

The Xmas jumper if anyone is interested is 11/12 but seems quite narrow - barely fit DSS when MIL gave it to him last year and, although he's tall. He's quite slim.

i also have a black bag and a half full of boys clothes, from age 11-12 up to mens small and a couple of larger bits. had a long overdue sort out of ds2's clothes. its all muddled up and not making much sense, but there is all kind of things in there from socks up to marks and spencer and river island shirts. i am in gloucestershire and cant afford to post it, but if anyone local is in need, please pm me and we can make arrangements for you to collect it.

CraftyPenguin · 20/09/2016 18:53

What a lovely thread!

I have hardly any clothes sorry so I don't have much to donate Blush but I have got a black faux leather jacket size 20. It's nothing special, just from Matalan but it's never been worn.

Will keep my eyes peeled if anyone posts about any girls clothes (12 months +)

user1471465062 · 20/09/2016 21:17

I have a size 14 rain Mac from M&S that I will post a picture tomorrow. I will look through And see what else I have.

Eva50 · 21/09/2016 20:19

CraftyPenguin I've pm'd you.

I pass on all ds's clothes to an ex colleague for her two little grandsons who don't have much but I will clear out my wardrobe. I'm sure I have lots of things I don't wear.

Passthecake30 · 21/09/2016 21:13

i want could I have the cycling shorts if still available? Can pay postage.

I have 2 x grey school dresses, size 4-5/5-6 (depending on how tall your child is!)

iwantavuvezela · 22/09/2016 00:26

Absolutely passthecake , please message me your address and will pop in post this week.

scootinFun · 22/09/2016 08:03

If anyone is getting rid of a xmas jumper to fit a 9-10 year old - he's tall and skinny I am happy to pay postage.

Cocklodger · 22/09/2016 18:10

Size 12 leather look leggings.
Size 12 black and blue coat tartan kind of pattern (But black and blue not red) Don't know how to explain it haha.
Size 5 biker boots with large heel, lovely, basically new but I can't walk in heels these days (last time I tried I fell arse over face and broke my nose on a wheelie bin...)
size 5 thigh high boots with heel (see above).
I also have some sealed makeup products (some eyeshadow, moisturizers and a couple of other bits) happy to post for free.

Starfish78 · 23/09/2016 11:56

I have a size 8 flowery dress from oasis if anyone's interested. I will have a few more bits but I need to sort through it all later

hownottofuckup · 23/09/2016 12:00
