What do you do with items you don't use anymore?  |
|
Do you donate them? Sell them? I'm talking about anything--clothes, shoes, towels, luggage, dishes, whatever. I will usually go through things I'm not using and see if anything is of true value, then maybe sell it. The others I will donate to a thrift shop like a goodwill, or if i know someone personally who could use what I have, I'll ask them. I don't like to have lots of "stuff" sitting around, so I find if I'm not using something, I will try to pass it on to someone who can make use of it.

1. Jennifer21 (2060) | 3 years ago | Actually, I will hold onto them forever!:D If it is clothes, I feel as though I could use them for something else, such as cutting up the fabric and making a purse or a pillow out of it. I usually end up doing nothing with it though, and the stuff just ends up in the basement along with everything else I don't use anymore. My husband calls me a pack rat!:D I am thinking of having a yard sale sometime soon though.

2. ljegbers (5761) | 3 years ago | Towels and old clothes, if really torn, have holes or wear areas, I cut up for rags. Other items, kids outgrown clothes, old shoes, dishes, etc. I either take to a consignment store, or I have posted on E-bay too.
If you don't have a consignment store or don't want to do e-bay, you can hold a garage or street sales. I've even taken stuff to the good will.
You can also take your old clothing to a homeless shelter, especially winter coats and gloves.

3. rosie_123 (3858) | 3 years ago | Well anything I don't use I donate to the local charity shops. We have loads here in London, and also various door-to-door collections in aid of all sorts of different charities. As a huge animal lover, I prefer to donate my stuff to the RSPCA (Royal Society for the Protection of Animals), or other animal charities, but I also give to Help the Aged, and local cancer charities. I can't stand clutter, and I wuld never throw something away if I thought it could be useful to someone else less fortunate than me, and make money for charity at the same time.

5. AmbiePam (15439) | 3 years ago | If family or friends want what I don't use, they are free to have it. My sister made me promise to give her first dibs at whatever clothing I don't want any longer. If I give it away to Goodwill or the Salvation Army, it has to be in good use. That is why I don't donate used towels. They don't look new, they look like hand me downs or just have bare threads. So if it is in good shape, I send it on to donate, otherwise, it goes in the trash.

10. brew2x (1461) | 3 years ago | I keep items that even if I don't use anymore if they are gifts for me, things that have sentimental value. For other things, we used to donate them for the less fortunate and it feels really good.
