Slowly and surely wins the race - and you're still meeting target. It may seem frustrating after a couple of weeks of getting rid of a kazillion things but it's still a win!

Op shops are dangerous! I go in to donate my stuff and always seem to leave with something too. But that spinning wheel is quite a bonus!
