[QUOTE="BadgeBunny, post: 2418279, member: 1242"] **sigh** No ... I guess not ... it's just ... well ... I was taught not to look a gift horse in the mouth ... :disappoin: Not to hijack the thread but I read a story recently about how charities like Goodwill are now refusing donations that aren't new enough. No electronics more than 2 years old, no furniture with even slight wear ... The gist of the article was that the stuff you donated needed to be new enough you'd think twice about getting rid of it ... :saywhat:As a single mom who did ALL her "shopping" at thrift stores back in the day, it never occurred to me to expect brand spanking new items for 99 cents ... And I certainly did not refuse an offer of free produce from anyone who had a garden ... Guess I was doing it all wrong ... :scratch: [/QUOTE]
