Guest guest Posted December 5, 2004 Report Share Posted December 5, 2004 Ron, Any place, Goodwill, Salvation Army will take them. Locally we have a Christian clothing Center I have taken mine too...Another thing to remember is those donations are tax deductible, if you keep a list (how many pants, shorts, t-shirts, dress shirts, scrubs etc) and get a receipt. I am amazed on how fast it all adds up. I have a form for that is anyone is interested, would just have to dig it out and scan it and I could email to you if interested.

They took them no problems. BTW.. Nice progress you're making. You're doing better than I am. :-)) Of course, I just had a near instantanious 10 pound gain Friday, fluid retention from the hernia repair. I'll have to see where I'm at in a couple weeks after all the swelling goes down. Jerry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted December 6, 2004 Report Share Posted December 6, 2004 Also Ron, If you are straped for cash and want to sell them they will sell on ebay...Course I think donating them is great...Even if you could take them to a support meeting of any kind...
