I'm one of those folks who don't bargain - as buyer or as seller. Which is one reason I rarely go to yard sales, and have never had one. (But I am not a shopper, period - hate having to shop, new retail or thrift.)

I figure if I don't need it and want it out of my hair, it is worth it to me to give it away. No hassle in doing that. But that is purely my personal preference and my own personal cost/benefit analysis. Plus, as a social worker and the mother of a kid just launching himself, (with lots of friends doing the same) it is pretty easy for me to find new homes for stuff I no longer have use for, but other folks might.

Clothes I usually just take to Goodwill, my local helping hand thrift store, etc - or trash - I usually wear things until they are plumb worn out and it would be an insult to some one to try to give it to them or a charitable organization or charitable thrift shop.
