[quote=Anonymous]I disagree that if you have a system and follow-through, reselling what's worth something is too hard.  I work with a consignment shop near a monthly errand and collect consignment items in a specific place.  When leaving to do that errand, I put those items in the car and drop them off.  They write me a check for last month's items and deposit it on the way home.

The system just has to be idiot-proof.  I accept that I have a problem and that things HAVE to be insanely simple for me to function.  One place.  Nothing is removed or moved around.  Once it's there, it's gone.

OP, if you need to get it out of the house, you can't be too picky.  Either eBay it (best prices for name brands) within a month, choose a consignment store and deal with any problems or donate.  Holding on to every last little bit of value is part of the illness.  Let go. Other parents struggling to get by will be thrilled to find them.

And the empty space is worth SO much more than the outgrown clothes.  Just move them out.    [/quote]
