Crapola of Clothes For Free!!



Recommended Posts

Ok, I may regret doing this if it becomes a headache, but...

Our local goodwills and stuff have been 'not taking donations' since before Xmas, and I've been going through clothes like nuts. I have literally been THROWING AWAY clothes. It's emberassing, I hate that. I am not going to sell them though because.. 1. I don't want to do garage sale 2. Don't want to be responsible for someone paying on ebay for used clothes and not liking it because it may have cat/dog hair and/or smoke smell.

However, I have a lot of trashbags of clothes I haven't been able to throw out, I was taught that's wasteful, and I had hoped local places would start taking donations again.. no luck and I need the room.

So, I am going to compile a big list of pics of clothes I have to get rid of. Some have only been worn once, and some (very few) for years, but I won't put anything in the list that I think no one would want.

I'm going to compile the list, and it's free.. first come first serve, all I ask is that you pay for the shipping, which you can do via paypal or write me a check! I ship from work, which is discounted, so it is quite cheap, but I do have to reimburse the company for the shipping charges.

There's all kinds of things, from pants, tops, sweaters, hella cute knee-length cardigan that took me 2 years to decide to spend the $$ for and then I could wear it only once before I got too small (I really lament about this one.) From sizes 24-18.

If you want to get the e-mail with all the pics/info please send me a PM with your e-mail address. It won't be a spammy thing, I'll send it out once and if you want something let me know what. If it's already taken, I'll let you know.

I do have 3 long haired white cats, a boxer dog and me & DH smoke. The items will be clean, but I know some people are sensitive to those things, so keep that in mind :thumbup:)

Im not sure where you live but if the weather is nice why not try and have a yard sale to get rid of the clothes and you can make a little money? I did this last summer with a friend and we both did really good. Im planning to do it again this summer and I have already started to collect bins of too big clothing.

good luck

As I said in my first post, I don't like the idea of garage sales :tt1:)

I don't want to feel bad selling something to someone and they end up not liking it, and they're my neighbor. I want to just donate them, but some reason goodwill is too good to receive donations for a while now.

You don't have clothing drop bins in your area? We have them all over back home and here. That is odd.

Weird request can you snap a pic or two of some of the cloths (that cardigan your talking about sounds like something I have been searching for!!!) I am very tempted but I am a visual creature:lol:

The drop off bins (tables) have signs on them that say "NOT TAKING DONATIONS AT THIS TIME".

I don't know, I never saw this before, but it's been like that a while. I guess not enough people are buying, they are overflowing out of their stores.

Yes Kat, PM me your email addy just so I have it in the list and don't forget to include you!

The cardigan is so pretty, it's creme and semi-sheer with long renaissancy flowy ruffle sleeves and corset-laces up the back. I oogled it 2 years, then finally decided to fork out the cash for it (size 24) and I was barely a 22 at the time, it is so large on me it's ridiculous. Not for lack of trying, on several occasions I tried to pull it off, but it does NOT look good when it's too big.

I PMed you my email addy .. and OMG that sounds EXACTLY like what I have been looking for .. *dies* Like I said can you PM me some pics?

*bounces up and down* pwetty pweety pwease?!?!?!?!? As my son would say with cherries and snails on top?!?!?!?!?!?

*edit in* My mom and I are both wanna be tailors (with both of us being big we had to learn :tt1:) and my tailor works with formal wear all the time so if I can't (or don't have the confidence) she definitely can make it work for me.

You could always have Free Sale too. It's like a garage sale but you don't charge any money.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
