    How do you decide which clothes to sell and which clothes to donate?
    Community Answer
    You can sell name brand clothes that are in excellent condition. Clothes that are not name brand or have rips, tears and/or stains won't sell. Ask your donation center if they will take them, as some sell damaged clothing on a per-pound basis to countries overseas.

    Ask them at the right time, approach them when they are in a good mood, and tell them that you would like to switch your wardrobe up a bit. Offer to pay for most or half of your desired wardrobe. If they say no, don’t hassle them about it, maybe ask for a part of your desired wardrobe as it gets closer to winter, they will want to ensure that you have the most appropriate clothing for each season.
  • Question
    I don't like throwing away things of mine. I like to keep stuff, so what could I do to get me to give them away? I never have the time, what should I do? Whenever I clean my cupboard, it still looks messy.

    Look through everything you have, and ask yourself, are these too small for me? Are they too big? Will I use them again? Do I really like them still? The answers can help motivate you to make needed changes. Try to stick with your cupboard and don't overstuff it. If you have things folded up, try to keep folding things up as you put them away.
