Be rid of those old movies, games and books forever!

Another bank holiday's been and gone and if, like me, you spent a good chunk of your weekend sifting through your old movie collection because (surprise, surprise) there was naff all on telly, this site might appeal.

Time and time again I picked up a DVD and thought to myself "why have I still got this? I really should find it a new home". Hitflip is one site that could do just that.

Swapping sites are nothing new, but we like this one for its simplicity.

Sign up for free and list your items by typing in their EAN barcodes. Once accepted, your items, be they books, DVDs, CDs or games, will be valued as worth so many "flips" according to age, condition and desirability.

These flip credits are what you use to trade for new items you add to your wish list.

Once somebody chooses one of your items, you post it to them and your account is credited. You can then go shopping.

All very uncomplicated. Now if I can just smuggle the wife's Rod Stewart CDs out of the house I'll be laughing...
