Handprints 2good2tip Group

2good2tip now has a new group at Handprints Online Magazine . We are supporting this great new publication in the South West. It’s the newest online community of parents in Bristol and South Gloucestershire – basically, its a guide to life with the under 5′s – please go take a look at them. Handprints Magazine.

We are encouraging new groups to set up their own 2good2tip community group in their pre schools or toddler group as it’s a great way of  getting rid of  all your unwanted bits and bobs between like-minded people. It’s a simple way of letting other people know, you have something to sell.  By creating your own 2good2tip community group at your play group or pre school (or anywhere you want) you can buy and sell or swap your stuff with people you know or people who use the same school.

Our aim to make friendlier and safer places for people to buy, sell, swap stuff or even fundraise.

The Bristol Magazine

The Bristol Magazine’s November issue is discussing whether the traditional car boot sale has basically had its day. It’s an interesting debate and I firmly believe that there is definitely still a place for the traditional carboot sale.  I think people love the idea of getting together and interacting with each other to buy and sell. The internet allows this to happen in quite a different way and that is why I love the 2good2tip concept that marries the two together – the traditional with the online.

Being able to sell and view stuff on-line rather than in a cold wet field has to be quite appealing but getting together and meeting people to make the sale or swap is the charm, and keeping all the profits from your sales rather than paying commission, is also a huge plus.

 

I like to think of 2good2tip as an extension of the carboot or indeed the traditional tabletop sale. It’s where locals, friends, colleagues can have some fun buying and selling together and making a few quid from stuff they would have otherwise dumped. People can use this site all week round and still do their traditional sales at the weekends – they can even notify each other of which sales they will be attending.

2good2tip on BBC Radio Bristol Breakfast Show!

 

Wow what an amazing morning I’ve had – I was invited to talk with Steve  Le Fevre on the BBC Bristol Breakfast show this morning to talk about 2good2tip – what a brilliant time!  I was so nervous but Steve was a really great guy and really put me at my ease. This was a first for me and I think it went really well, it all went by in a bit of a blur to be honest.
