Used Underwear?

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?

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.

I don’t know anywhere that would accept them, but DH turns most of our old shirts and such into rags for working on the garage. They might also make good dust rags.

I don’t know anything to help you out, but I do feel your pain. I have had underwear like that in the past. I did eventually give them to my mother as she was about the same size. They are all gone now.

How about posting on freecycle? Someone, somewhere may want them.

does this apply with bras also? Do you just throw out your old bras?

I’m selfish, impatient, and a little insecure. I make mistakes, I am out of control, and at times hard to handle, but if you can’t handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don’t deserve me at my best~ Marilyn Monroe

Great idea :)

I could do that with the cotton ones, but the satin ones may not be so good for that. IDK, I guess I could try it.

Unfortunately I do, but only because I have a 2 y/o MinPin pup that enjoys eating my bras!!!! Ugh! So, I am very skimpy on bra inventory, because he has literally chewed up about 20 bras in the past 2 years :(

Plus, my size is so very hard to find that I just rarely get to buy them!

I have seen underwear for sale at Goodwill – I dont know how they got there – but you could always call a store and ask. I would call the Julian Center also – they might take them as well.
