The Free Table at the End of the Day



decluttering challenge
At the beginning, there were a lot of things lined up in front of the table and none by the end of the day.

I can’t believe no one took the rainbow slippers!

After cleaning up the free table tonight, I felt like there was still a lot left.  I filled up two black bags full of stuff and ran them over to the thrift store.  Only two bags out of the many that I put out there.

When I think about all the things that I had out there, I realize there was a lot more than two bags full.  Some of the things that were gone included a leather backpack, about 8 pairs of shoes and boots, an alarm clock, stampers, puzzles, clothes, books, notebooks, binders, crayons, jewelry, snow pants, a snowsuit and lots of stuffed animals – including some of those Beanie Babies!!

Too Much Good Stuff on the Free Table?

I don’t want to think about it too much though!  I gave a lot away and I don’t want to regret getting rid of some of it.  Maybe I should be deleting the pics of the free tables that I set up.  It might be better if I don’t have anything to remind me of what was on them.

For the first time, one of my kids was a little embarrassed about the free table.  His girlfriend was coming over and I think he felt a little funny about it.  I don’t know why though.  It just looks like a rummage sale except that there’s a big FREE STUFF sign in front of it.  I like that I can set the table up and leave.  No sitting there all day long waiting for people to haggle about the price. I love doing the free table.

I hope everyone gets to enjoy the things that they took today!

In case you forgot what it looked like in the morning, here’s the pic again:

Unfortunately, it was a little dark in the shade when I took the pic so it’s hard to see how much is on the tables. Things were really stacked up pretty high.

  • It really is a better idea than selling it but I know what you mean about regrets. When ever I get rid of something that has been hanging around, unused, for years,two weeks later, I suddenly need it! EVERYTIME!!!!
