Actually, we tried the tip shop, but they wouldn't take it because it had some massive kitty rips in it. (Also, we've spilled a drink or two on it over the years.)
Trust us, we tried all those avenues. We told friends, advertised on Facebook and asked the Salvos. We gave the Salvos our old guest mattress but they wouldn't take the couch because of its rips. It kills me to throw things away but after a month of asking around we really needed to get it out of the house on the day the new couch arrived. If the tip shop flat out refused to take it, that's saying something about its condition!
hehe fair call. We're a little over sensitive after having seen too much good stuff get dumped around these parts. We've seen everything from nearly new futons to a scale replica shopping mall end up in the skips at our apartment complex, drives us mad!
Sucks about the new one :( It always feels so much worse when they seriously screw up the big purchases >_<

Guys, next time be responsible Bogans and please drop it at the tip shop! http://www.resourcetipshop.com/
Also, Vinnies will actually come and pick up your old furniture.
Reduce, reuse and all that ;) I'm sure some one else will love the poor old thing.

oh come on,
to really be a bogan you'd have to have set fire to it, buried your neighbour's dog in it and then used it as attractive lawn ornaments..
