Yup. We're joining the crowd. We are going to do it. We are doing it: I got up to hear news from hubby: he'd taken out a large bag of junk to the garbage can before I'd crawled out of bed.
The new house that we will move to in a few years is museum quality inside. We must downsize. We must unload little stuff. Stuff like a little rolling cart that sits in the shed. That little cart holds VHS tapes. Good movies but we are not going out and buying a machine to play them. I'll dust those tapes off and dust off that rather shabby cart and into the car and off to the Goodwill! Not coming back. Kicked out. We also have plastic tubs that have sliding drawers. One of those is going, going, gone today. Its a start; a good way to start Spring.

My late husband and I went to flea markets and Walmart all the time buying VHS tapes when we first got together and both working. We had a pretty large collection. After our kids were born we down sized and sold about half the collection in our yard sale for $1 a tape. About 5 years ago my vhs player broke and I could not buy another one anywhere so I gave my sister the kids vhs tapes and my boyfriend at the time the other ones.

@andriaperry I am a huge monster on garden pretties. I may take a large blue-green bird cage. I also have glass garden art out there that is hand blown and must go with me.

@thislittlepennyearns I don't plan to go into the building. I will just drive around out back where somebody will come pick up the stuff from us.

When we sold our house to move we started with the shed and got rid of everything else a little at a time.
