A lot of non-profit organizations around here have dumpsters in shopping center parking lots. It makes it so easy to drop things off, and you don't feel like you have to have a whole box or bag full. Yesterday, in a parking lot where I was going anyway, I dropped off two pairs of jeans and a top for the Child Crisis Center. (You do have to be careful that they are really charitable concerns; some used clothing for-profit businesses have been known to put their dumpsters in parking lots without the permission of the owners.)

Hope you feel better, Golden Key.

Thanks. I did finally make it to the thrift store.

Actually, there aren't any donation boxes around here, but there is a store in walking distance. It's a matter of being up to getting there, etc.
