    hi there

    i know there is an oxfam shop in galway but im not sure if you can just walk in with stuff to donate

    i have an old 22 inch tube tv, works perfectly, that i dont need anymore.

    id rather give it to charity rather than have to throw it out

    does anyone know if oxfam in the city would take it off me, or is there any other shop that would?

    many thanks for the replies!

    They don't take electrics.

    Suspect you'll be out of luck.

    Try Freecycle (google it)
