Spay and neuter your pets people, and for the love of St Francis, stop treating your pets like property and disposing of them when they get too big or they become a little destructive, or you move! Does that work with kids? "Hello, orphanage. I'd like to turn in little Betty. We thought she would stay a baby, but we caught her coloring on our walls, and now we have to rent an apartment that won't take her."
End spiel.
I've actually donated to the thrift shop a few times. In fact, on this trip, I took several boxes of stuff and while we wandered the thrift shop, it was already being unpacked in the back. Not sitting in the box for the next 3 months. So, some good stuff here and some not so good stuff like any thrift shop, and prices are appropriate. As I understand, they also have an eBay store where donations of more substantial value are auctioned. And I love that this shop has a pretty large pet section where you can buy food, supplies, and toys (all new) at a decent savings. Great for people who need the savings and for those who would rather pay the Humane Society for a new collar rather than Walmart. I do wish they had a pick up service, however, for large donations. But I understand it's costly.
Such a great cause that I think I'll go through my husband's stuff and downsize him!
