Years ago, Mom introduced me to the idea of going to garage sales. People sell the darnedest things at their garage sales. Garage sales take time, you have to hit quite a few before you find the item you want or need. Finding a new purpose for an old item is one of the joys of finding bargains at garage sales.

We want toys, especially toys that aren’t multi-purpose, to be kept to a minimum. While I appreciate the thought, those toys don’t get used often, and I feel bad donating them or giving them away. If something is cheap at a garage sale, I may buy it even if I’m not sure that I’ll use it.

I took at least three trunks full of “stuff” to Goodwill, I had a garage sale, and I sold things online. If you buy your child a new doll, make sure that you donate or sell another one of her toys or you’ll end up with a toy room filled with toys your children don’t play with.

I keep a closet in the garage with gifts that I wasn’t so into. Donate your credits to charity (December holiday charities you can choose from include, Toys for Tots, Make-A-Wish Foundation, Ronald McDonald House, Boys & Girls Club, Goodwill). Is that the question? If it is then I am all for it!
