I went to visit my brother for a week a year and a half ago. He was convinced I never changed my clothes the entire visit because I have the same type of wardrobe… All my pants are the same colour and style as are my socks, shirts and underwear. If your clothes vary you have to decide what to wear and to me thats a waste of time.
Liv should be a better judge of the recipient of her largesse. GOODWILL CEO and owner Mark Curran profits $2.3 million a year. Goodwill is a very catchy name for his business. You donate to his business and then he sells the items for PROFIT. The CEO of the Salvation Army makes less than $20K per year. I only donate to the SA.
I several years ago instituted a 2-for-1 rule – for everything I buy (or otherwise bring into the household; other than food, of course), two similar things have to go out. I bought a new pair of shoes – I threw out my rollerblades and the oldest pair of running shoes. I bought a new steam iron – and donated the old one and an electric skillet I haven’t used in 10 years. For books, it’s a three-for-one requirement.
I give her a gold star for not telling him he has to cull. I’m really tired of seeing spouses or parents making someone donate, I think that’s inexcusable.

Good question. I have five red winter turtle necks. Keep thinking I should reduce the number, but which?

Look for the amount of wear and stains.

Let Liv decide. Just this one time.

When my FIL died at age 93, in his closet were 117 shirts. Quite a few had that yellow 90% off Kohl’s tag.

Pretty sure Ben would give away the newer clothes, they’re not as comfortable as the older worn in clothes. What do you think?

Ben is a man with simple tastes in clothes.

These days people pay over $100.00 for a pair of "worn and torn " jeans.

too small, too big, thinning material/elbows, missing buttons, torn pockets…unrepairable!

Give the patchiest one to Goodwill, the one with the most food stains to the soup kitchen, and the holiest one to the Church… ☺

Guess you need to start date stamping you clothes.

Reminds me of my closet. I don’t have much imagination or sense of style.

This reminded me of Al’s closet (from “Home Improvement”).

Is it only in my part of the world that the charities have stopped picking up their monthly bags of used clothes from front porches?

I only give to the SALVATION ARMY because the CEO is not greedy. the CEO of Goodwill makes $2.3 million.
