So you’ve decided that jacket isn’t very useful. Or those jeans, terribly flattering. Or your kids have outgrown those toys and your spouse hates that lamp.
How do you, as a consignment shop owner, a resale proprietor, or a thrift shop manager, recycle your own stuff? Do you take it in to your own shop or do you use another? And which and why?
If a family member across the continent mentions the clear-out-clutter kick she’s on, what do you advise her to do with gently-used, previously-loved items?
Me, since I buy almost everything used, I often take things to the Goodwill or Habitat ReStore in my neighborhood. Third-hand stuff’s not always very consignable, is it?
