What do you do with your old household stuff which you don't use any more?

i first try to find if someone that i know could use it, if it is still in good shape, if not, i will see if we have room to store it and wait to see if we are going to have a yard sale, if not then i just donate it. if it is not in good shape i throw it out.

Mostly I donate it to the needy.
Sometimes I have to see it as scrap.
Sometimes I exchange it for new ones.
But I never did a yardsale!

I usually donate it at places like Salvation Army,or other thrift stores that accept household donations

We usually gather up the stuff, and donate a lot of it, clothes, blankets etc.. got to Salvation Army, Toys and children's blankets or stuffed animals go to the local daycare centers or Salvation Army, any electric items or electronics and power tools either get given away to friends that may want them or they get sold in a yard sale.

I had this strange obsession of buying books. I would buy maybe one or two dozen a year. Maybe I would start reading them, but then I would never finish. I now have about two dozeen boxes of partially read books that I didn't give the time to read completely.
Now I just buy magazines and graphic novels, but at least I read them. OK, I might buy two or three books a year, and I do read most of them.

My stuff gets piled up in the back of cupboards or closets. I have done the yard sale stuff and I try to throw things out but my husband says I can't get rid of it because we may need to use it someday. Yeah right. I have stuff I find I didn't even know I had and I will never use it. LOL

I know a guy who sells from pin to elephant. the unwanted and undesirable stuff is sold to him for a song.

I try to hand it down to family members, if they don't want it or need it then I do a yard sale. After the yard sale I donate it to places that are in need. Sometimes if it is nice I make a box and place them in there for gifts to my garbage collectors, light meter reader and paper person. Small gifts go a long way in saying thank you.

I am a donating fool! I donate at least once to twice a month. I use to have yard sales, but it wasn't worth the time. So now I just wait and like clock work an organization will call and ask if I have something. I think they passed my number around as a Hot Donator, LOL. I get calls from several different places.

Well currently we don't have many useless though useful things to spare. We do belong to a few freecycle groups. That way useful things find new homes. We also have a free clothing bank that would take the gently used clothing we might have. I also have the option of selling things on Ebay since I have a store there.
