Guest guest Posted September 5, 2006 Report Share Posted September 5, 2006 Hi . This is an interesting post. I used to bring my old oversized clothes to my in person support group until I learned that some people grabbed the clothes to resell on eBay. After that I held on to my clothes. Many of the items in my wardrobe are costly and high end brand name clothing. Over time they collected dust in a spare bedroom. My secreatry suggested that I donate the clothing to a woman's shelter or transitional house. ly, the hassle of listing and selling on eBay is not worth my time. However, my $200 sdress can be worth $30,00 to a single mother who needs a stylistic wardrobe to be hired for a well paid professional position. Is there a men's shelter or transitional house that can see that your clothes are put to good use for the less fortunate? That would be my suggestion.

Guest guest Posted September 5, 2006 Report Share Posted September 5, 2006 The clothes I had on Obesityhelp are already gone. to find the list you have to log into your account and then go the Obesityhelp Clothing Exchange through your account page. I have things that I want to get rid of but not for free. They were too much money to just give away. Obesity help you can only list things that are free > > , > > I am interested in finding where your post is. I looked in Obesity help but > can't find my way around it.
