Five ways to earn extra cash by flogging things you would normally throw away
WITH budgets stretched after Christmas, now is the perfect time to cash in by selling gear you no longer want.
But you may also be able to flog things that you would normally chuck.
There is a healthy market for selling on empty candle jars[/caption]Here are some of the surprising items that can become a nice littler earner.
EMPTY CANDLE JARS: When your favourite candle has come to an end, you probably pop the jar in recycling.
However, there is a healthy market for selling on empty candle jars — especially if they are from posh brands.
For example, an empty Diptyque jar recently sold for £8 on eBay. Next time your candle is finished, clean it out and try listing it.
BRANDED GIFT BAGS: Hang on to the packaging if you buy an item from an upmarket store, as you may find that you can sell gift boxes and bags for cash. A Jo Malone small gift bag sold for £4 on eBay this month.
TESTERS: If you got a couple of freebies when buying some nice toiletries, there may be demand from online buyers. A 2ml Aesop eau de parfum recently went for £7.95 on eBay while a Chanel No.5 body lotion sachet was bought for £4.
USED PERFUME: If you have changed your mind about a perfume and the bottle is half-full, you can sell it on. A less than half-empty container of Gucci Flora has sold for £16 this year.
Or if you’ve used up all your favourite scent, you may be able to make some money from the bottle by listing it online.
You can expect to fetch £5 for the likes of an empty Jean Paul Gaultier bottle or £9 for an Alien Goddess bottle.
CHOC TINS: If you scoffed Roses or Quality Street over Christmas from tins, you could sell the empries and make a sweet profit — especially if they are limited edition.
An empty Cath Kidston Roses tin from 2021 recently sold for £17.50 while two other limited-edition tins fetched £8.50.

Luke Littler congratulated on PDC World Darts Championship win by local bus firm… but they get his name wrong
LUKE LITTLER has been congratulated for his darts success by a local bus company – but they spelt his name wrong.
The teen sensation created history when he became the youngest winner of the World Darts Championship last week.
Littler became champion of the world last week[/caption]He moved up to second in the world and received a £500,000 jackpot for his achievement.
And in his local town Warrington buses paid tribute to Littler in their own way, but dropped a massive clanger.
Instead of showing the destination and bus number, the screen at the above the windscreen read: “Congratulations, Luke Litter! [sic]. World Champion.”
Fans were quick to point out the misspelling of his surname with one saying: “Should have gone to Specsavers.”
Littler is now preparing to defend the Bahrain Masters title he won last year.
And he is already targeting defending his Worlds title after his historic win last week.
He said: “If I can go back-to-back, it would mean the world.
“Leading up to it (last year), I thought if I could be in the top four, I’d be happy, but obviously, I finished first because of the way I played.
CASINO SPECIAL – BEST CASINO BONUSES FROM £10 DEPOSITS
“But I will just have the same mindset going into it, if you make the play-offs, that is all that matters and just give it your all at the O2.”
Littler hit a nine-darter in last year’s Prem final against Luke Humphries and it would be a dream come true to complete one at Ally Pally.
He said: “I would have loved to hit a nine-darter in the World Championships.
“Obviously that is another record that I can try and break for years and years.
“When you’re playing so good, you can feel the nine coming.”
Antonin Kinsky needs just 18 minutes to show Tottenham fans what they’ve been missing after £12.5million transfer
IT took just 18 minutes for Antonin Kinsky to show off the fancy footwork Spurs have sorely missed from their goalkeeper in the last six weeks.
The confident Czech, signed on Sunday from Slavia Prague, performed a clever keepy-uppy to get himself out of the danger he had been put in by team-mate Radu Dragusin.
Antonin Kinsky had a debut to remember between the sticks for Spurs[/caption] The goalie looked sharp as Tottenham beat Liverpool 1-0[/caption]Romanian Dragusin had let a dangerous ball bounce, but instead of panicking, Kinsky cleverly lifted the ball over an advancing Diogo Jota and caught it.
It was a promising snapshot of his ball-playing ability which was on show here throughout his debut.
And one that will have come as a big relief to fans who have watched from behind their sofa as poor old Fraser Forster has attempted to play AngeBall in Guglielmo Vicario’s absence.
Tottenham boss Ange Postecoglou has decided to persevere with playing out from the back ever since No1 Vicario fractured his ankle in November.
And though Forster has made some good saves in the meantime, playing smart, short passes under pressure is not his strong suit.
That was made abundantly clear when the 36-year-old made not just one but TWO horrendous errors that led to goals in the last round of the Carabao Cup last month, which Spurs just about won 4-3 against Manchester United, despite leading 3-0 at one point.
With Vicario not expected back until late February, Spurs decided to act and brought in 21-year-old Kinsky this month for £12.5million on a six-and-a-half-year deal.
His agent Viktor Kolar revealed how tough the negotiations were to get the deal over the line in an interview with Flashscore.
FOOTBALL FREE BETS AND SIGN UP DEALS
It included how chairman Daniel Levy himself flew over to Prague to get things moving alongside Spurs’ technical director Johan Lange.
Kolar said: “Our team was still sitting at a petrol station in Prague until almost 10 pm of December 31, because everything was closed on New Year’s Eve.
“The subsequent development was that on January 1, Daniel Levy flew in himself and the two-day negotiations in Prague began. He had Johan Lange with him.
“The negotiations were intense, stretching late into the night.
“But it worked, and I’m happy about that. It was a beautiful test to see if people and organizations this dominant can find their way to each other.”
Kolar also detailed how his client chatted the move over with Czech goalkeeping great Petr Cech before signing on the dotted line.
Kinsky then went on to become the most expensive Czech keeper ever, with his £12.5m deal surpassing the £10m Arsenal paid Chelsea for Cech in 2015.
Kolar added: “Toni can consult on things with Petr, and talk about the goalkeeping stuff.”
Kinsky was thrown straight in here against high-flying Liverpool for what was a pivotal match in Spurs’ season – and Postecoglou’s tenure.
The blond stopper looked cool throughout his bow – and not just in his short-sleeved keeper top.
His presence seemed to calm down an injury-hit defence which has seemed jittery of late too, with some accurate passes and solid saves.
There was one hairy moment soon after his keepy-uppy where he tried to play out from back and his pass hit Archie Gray but he got away with it.
But for the most part Kinsky seemed assured, summed up by how he smartly started the move which led to Dominic Solanke sliding Spurs ahead – only to be ruled out for offside.
Solanke shrugged off the disappointment by teeing up another blond bombshell in Spurs’ team, Lucas Bergvall, for an opener that did stand – much to Kinsky and his new team-mates’ delight.
Kinsky then produced his save of the night to turn an inventive flick from Liverpool sub Darwin Nunez round the post in stoppage time.
Postecoglou had said it was not just his footwork that convinced Spurs to sign the youngster – and so this stop proved.
Kinsky completed his debut with a warm embrace from his sister, who looked emotional in the stands next to supporters.
It is early days, but on this evidence Spurs fans can be confident that their new man between the sticks has what it takes to play the high-risk football their manager insists on.
Plastic willies and male strippers swapped for escape rooms and axe throwing at hen dos
PLASTIC willies and male strippers at hen dos are being ditched in favour of escape rooms and axe throwing.
Stags are also shunning booze and strip clubs, research reveals.
Party organisers Last Night of Freedom (LNOF), which arranges thousands of bashes a year, said not one male stripper was booked for any of its bridal events in 2024.
Group shows featuring hunky “Butlers in the buff” were also down nearly 70 per cent.
Yet bookings for immersive experiences such as escape rooms karaoke booths, cocktail making and mini-golf rocketed by 270 per cent.
LNOF’s Matt Mavir said: “Trends are changing. Hens and stags aren’t booking risqué activities as much.
“This could be in part due to platforms like OnlyFans where you can essentially connect with a person without leaving your house for £10.
“Perhaps the thought of an in-real life experience is too overwhelming.”
Married dad-of-two Matt has organised more than 50,000 stag and hen dos over 25 years.
He added: “People aren’t boozing as heavily and we’re down more than 50 per cent on purely alcohol related activities.”
Matt said stag parties have not completely ditched strip clubs — with grooms three times more likely to indulge in an adult show abroad than in the UK.
