What do you hoard when you move?
 
We find out when we move! Did you let go of a stockpile before you moved or did you bring it with you? I suspect I'm not the only one who has a favorite item that I can't get enough of....must have donated 50 bottles of hand lotion.

I honestly don't know how it happens, but I'm beginning to think I'm a klepto for ballpoint pens.

Hah, I wondered what happened to all those pens I had.:loco:

Can't seem to part with son's school papers & art work. Only child syndrome?

Can not part with cards, letters, notes and school memorabilia from people I love.

Seems it might be of some historic value someday, since now few send snail mail.

jblum315 09-02-2013 08:14 AM

Books. If I get rid of even one I will miss it someday and have to buy it again.

I'm currently "stocking up" on lemon biscotti and capers (not to eat together-lol).

That's it. The time has come where I have to meet you in person.

Same here!
Specially if those cards, letters and knick knacks were from people that have passed on.

Books were hard to give away, but i did. No place hardly in this Gardenia....

Empty or full? If they're unused I don't see a problem.

Funny no empties.. I am not quite that bad ... YET.....- but it is almost impossible for me to pass a display of keurig kups and not buy a new flavor.. I need a "time out" ...

that's what I'm talking about. you have more than you can use in a year, but...
hey, that's a good sale, I'll just get five packs.
...of each new flavor..
and it feels good when you do it!
