What stuff have you chucked out you used only once or never?

That includes the stuff under your bed you hoped the kids would never find :scared:
Far to much rubbish to mention seem to be doing car boot sales every weekend at the moment it still gets me what people will buy but im not complaning making a small foryune at the moment

Feel free to add to the list of useless stuff if you can be bothered


1. Breville sandwich toaster
2. Ice cream maker
3. Fondue set
4. Cuddly toy-whoops 80's flash back then
5. Any gym equipment especially the rowing machine and bullworker
6. Pasta maker
7. Husbands or wives
8. Foot massager
9. Record player (not used for 15 years)

I suppose this should be in the Barbie really-oh that's another thing!
That's one thing I do plan on using more in OZ
