Following on from the truly skint thread I bet there are lots of us with things we have that we would be prepared to send to those who are really struggling. I don't want to insult anyone by offering things but at the same time I want to help if I can. I have boys clothes and shoes up to age 5 and black school trousers age six. Pm me. Anyone else have anything

Oh, and it's blue stripey.

I would be really grateful for either maternity clothes in size 12-14 or
reusable nappies- I gave everything away to my cousin after I had DD and she sold everything instead of offering it back to me after she'd finished with it!!!
We're so skint at the moment, we've just moved house and I'm starting up my own business so relying on DP to bring in the cash monies at the moment- so anything like this would be so much appreciated.
I'm in Cheshire/ south Manchester area so could collect something fairly local but would pay postage if someone further afield has something?

I have boys school trousers in grey, age 5 still with tags on. Boys clothes age 4-5 or 5. These have been worn but in good condition. Also size 14 long black trousers from Dorthy Perkins still with tags on. Happy to pay postage to anywhere in UK

terrywoganstrousers · 03/06/2012 19:22

Ivananap- I'm 13 weeks preg but bump has just suddenly popped out this week!
I don't have anything at all at the moment but anything casual would be great- a pair of jeans/ leggings / maybe a couple of tops if anyone had a few bits spare. I can't do my jeans up any more but I could get away with wearing some of my longer tops if I had some trousers which fitted!

BodyofEyore, please could I have the fluffy boys' cardi?
How old is your boy?

My DS 1 is nearly 9 and DS 2 is just four, so if you want anything bigger of DS1's, please let me know and I'll have a rummage for you?

I am being cheeky and pre-emptive, but I will PM you my address just incase you decide to bestow your beneficence on us Grin

TheMonster · 04/06/2012 09:04

All yours, Bobbly! My DS is 5 and a half. Smile

RatherBeOnThePiste · 04/06/2012 09:30

I have a few more bits that need a new home, happy to pay postage, PM me.

Blue and grey striped zipped sweatshirt hoody 3-4
Mid grey chunky fleece, half zip age 4-5
Blue GAP long sleeve T with grey sleeves, age 3
Red with narrow white stripe T shirt age 6

They are from my neighbour, in theory they are boys' clothes but certainly her daughter has worn some of them too. They are all in really good condition.

RatherBeOnThePiste · 04/06/2012 09:32

That red t shirt has long sleeves btw

IBlameThePenguins · 04/06/2012 09:47

Can I ask what is the best way to wrap and post parcels (clothes)?

I was thinking pack in a carrier bag and then wrap (or double wrap?) in brown parcel paper? Or should I use a giant padded envelope?

I am sorry for such an inane question, just want the items to arrive in decent condition. :)

RabbitsMakeBrownEggs · 04/06/2012 11:28

I do the first option for non breakable stuff, or bubble wrap if it's breakable.

Winterdyke · 04/06/2012 11:29

Oh or a parcel box, I forgot I had some of them!

Going now promise! Blush

Winterdyke · 04/06/2012 11:30

That's great, Rabbit. Thanks.
