"RE: Used Underwear? haha- i just find this funny-I know ur being serious but have you tried maybe seeking out..."
That is what I wondered. IDK if a shelter would take them. I know it is not the most sanitary thing to think about, but seriously…there has to be some ladies out there who wish they had underwear!
Sadly, I am sure it is something some people do not spend money on when they do not have groceries in the house :(
Whenever there is resistance from anyone along your path, quickly remove them from your healing circle. Always move forward and stay away from these road blocks.
May the light always shine upon you, and may love and laughter always fill your heart.
"RE: Used Underwear? I have seen underwear for sale at Goodwill – I dont know how they got there –..."
It is my understanding that they sell new Underwear that is bought in lots. They turn around and resell the new/slightly irregular ones for a profit.
I just really do not want someone making a profit off of selling my used undies for $2 a pair! It’s ridiculous what Goodwill charges for some things now!

PLEASE donate them to The Julian Center!
They are in desperate need of underwear (esp sizes 7-9) all the time. The women come to the shelter with nothing but the clothes on their backs. The often get clothing donations so that is not so hard to fix, but they never have enough undies!
The Julian Center is on Meridian downtown..right across the street from the Citizens Gas building! They would so appreciate some panties!

I know I could have called around, but I am just too busy wasting time on IM’s :)
Hey-At least my heart is in the right place, LOL!
ETA:Mine are bigger than 7-9, but I am donating them anyway. I am sure they will get used eventually!

This is a subject that I am sure many will scoff at, but hear me out please :)
I just finished my “Just one thing” for today, which was to clear out all of the fat-er girl PJ’s as well as my Undies drawer.
I have a peculiar stomach and I have to buy a lot of undeis before I find a pair that are comfy and do not rest on my c-section scar.
I have tons and tons of underwear, many of which were worn once or twice before I realized I couldn’t wear them due to discomfort on my scar.
I most certainly would not sell them, and I wouldn’t donate them to any place that would resell them.
I just know there has to be a place that would graciously accept them, and avoid me sending them to the landfill!
Does anyone know of a place that would happily accept used undergarments?
I wouldn’t donate anything that has lots of wear, or any staining, but there are A LOT of perfectly good undies over here, and I HATE HATE HATE sending useable items to the Dump!
Any suggestions?
