  • Old keys in your junk drawer that you don’t even know what they could open.
  • Mini Donut Maker – or some odd small appliance you bought, used once and stored away.
  • Old Sneakers – You ran them ragged, bought new ones….but the old ones are still sitting in your closet. Why? The memories?
  • Hotel/Travel Toiletries: Stop trying to be Ross Geller. You’ll never use them again. You’ll plan the trip, make another Target run and buy all new travel size bottles.
