Mostly to Red Cross and Oxfam!

I sorted last year. Mostly because my cleaning lady was nagging me that my closets are too full and that I have too many clothes. I filled up a few bags for her to take to Savers, which is a charitable organization that donates its proceeds to the Boys and Girls clubs of America.

Lately I just leave the stuff down in the laundry room in my building. We have about 120 residents here, and the stuff I leave down there just disappears, and someone ends up using it.

When I first move here in 2016, I had TWO double closets full of stuff, and I had to do an enormous purge. I was spotted leaving the building with the clothes I was donating to a local food pantry/ all items, and someone asked me if I was moving out!!! 🤣🤣🤣

I sort and move things to a bedroom we don't use. had a handyman put shelves in on one side of a spare bedroom just for shoes and purses. maybe when all the closets are full or I die everything can be cleaned out

I hardly buy clothes. I replace each thing as it wears out. Buy multipacks of socks and throw out the worn sock and pair the other up with another. I really dont see the point of spending money on clothes you wear once hanging in the wardrobe. I mostly.wear jeans, black trousers and a few tshirts and shirts.

@meggie i lost a lot of weight after my diabeties diagnoses. I had to buy new clothes. But, i didn't get rid of all my old stuff straight away, im still in the process.

@RubySoo I bet you feel and look great going down in clothes size.
RubySoo · 56-60, F
@meggie well, it was about becoming healthier, not thinner.
The size of my clothes is not important, but certain things are not so comfy to
wear when yr bigger. Its good to be back in jeans!! Lol

I wear things until they all have holes. So I rarely throw clothes out.

When they do have holes that's when they go.

I haven't changed sizes since I was a teenager.

I went through my t-shirts last week and bagged up 43 t-shirts I`ll never wear, I went through socks I`ve never worn too, 33 pairs of those. All will be donated.

If I cannot fit into stuff anymore, I give it to charity.

I also forced myself to stop buying new things. I have too much of some things.

Except a smartphone, since my old one had problems. But it was a replacement and upgrade, not a second phone. The old one had to be trashed.

I keep on thinking about stuff to put on Vinted but I keep on putting it off lol 🤗
RubySoo · 56-60, F
@ArtieKat i dont sell a lot, but some stuff has never been worn and still has tags!! So....i'll stick it in Vinted when i have chance.

RubySoo · 56-60, F

I give things away all the time. It’s a bit of revolving door for me.
Not much to give away!

In a while probably every 3 years. To charity can't be arsed with selling 😂
RubySoo · 56-60, F
@OldBrit lol. Its quite straight forward, but i get what you mean. I have stuff hanging around waiting to be listed!! Lol
