I did manage to get 3 bags filled up and out the door this weekend! Well, two bags and a box. Ok, and they’re not technically out the door all the way, they’re sitting in the garage until garbage pick-up on Friday. The point is I got some crap out of my house, yay! Old magazines, socks full of holes, packing paper from parcels, all gone, gone, gone!

Thanks to everyone who participated in the Reader Challenge!
Here’s a photo submission from Greg of Live It With Less. Greg says:

Got some spare time today, so here are my 3 bags ( well actually its 1 box and 2 bags)
Box is full of old house paint (some of its actually from previous owner), the bags contain the empty boxes from presents, electronic devices etc. Its good to keep these for a little while in case item has to be returned, but it all should go eventually when you are satisfied there is no problem with the product.

All this stuff go in the recycle bin and the paint will be dropped off at our local chemical depot.

Cheers
Greg

This week, I’d like everyone to get rid of three bags of something. It can be garbage/recycling. It can be clothes. It can be a jumble of things donated to charity, as long as it’s three bags (or 3 boxes) full of stuff gone from your house.

The challenge ends on the 21st, so you have one week. Leave a comment to say if you are participating. You can document your progress in your own blog (leave us a link here so we can check it out!) or here in the comments. Photo documentation is awesome, and can be uploaded to the Clutter Cubed Flickr Group.

Everyone who participates will be a winner, since you’ll have less clutter in your home, but I’ll have a special prize for one random participant: a copy of The Simple Guide to a Minimalist Life by Leo Babauta of ZenHabits. (affiliate link). It’s an ebook, so it won’t take up any room in your home at all!

The participants will be highlighted and the winner will be announced on March 22.
Come participate in the challenge!

With spring in full swing now (in the Northern Hemisphere, at least!) I figure everyone could use a gentle little nudge to get started with their spring cleaning and decluttering! Would a gift certificate from The Container Store help you get going?

Well, I like free stuff, and I’m sure you do too, so I decided to enter a few giveaways on other blogs, and also to host a giveaway myself!
