Do you Donate Your Used Goods for Recycling too ??

The weirdo at the Main Goodwill told me they could not accept the table, because the top plastic liner had a 1/2 inch tear in it. I told him you employ people to bring some of the DONATIONS up to PAR, this one gets fixed in 2 minutes, he still refused.

So with a smile in my face I left and 1/2 a ml down the road I stoped at a Trailer for GOODWILL, where the Lady there took it graciously and very happy for my donation.

It takes all kinds in this world of ours.

Some want to show unexistent power in their positions, others just would love to hug you for your Gift.

I got some more dotations ready for Goodwill, but I will not go back for a while to the Store by me, instead I will drop off at the Trailer I used the last time

Main problem with Goodwill is that they can't afford people who have the skills to repair things. They can only put a price sticker on it and move what you donate to the main floor to sell.

Then when they still can't sell it, it gets dumped into an outlet store for a last ditch effort for sale. A lot of broken stuff end up there, after them spending a lot of money trucking it around.

At least they don't have to spend money to stick it into a landfill.

So be careful what you donate. You might be costing Goodwill as they eventually have to dispose of your garbage instead.

Driving up to Pinellas County this Friday, I will go investigate Moms Garage, something I do everytime I go to visit her, help her get rid of treasures in there she no longer needs.

I noticed a couple of months back that there was a family at the beginning of our Circle with a couple of young Kids I offered the Bike to their Grandpa, owner of the house and he took it graciously, the kids came by to thank us and we see them on the bike every so often.

Great use for something we found abandonned.

Often take items to Salvation Army or the local church which had monthly garage sales.
