[quote=Anonymous]When I pass stuff on to family and close friends I pass it on freely. Anything I have sold was done only after friends and family didn’t want it. I am not a fashion forward person so all of my stuff came from Target and Carters, so it wasn’t trendy. It was comfy and well cared for. Use it, don’t use it, it is up to the other person. Once I pass it on, it is out of my hands what someone does. I doubt anyone sold it because none of it was all that exciting.

We also passed on the crib and swing and bouncy seat and car seats to my cousin. We are the anal retentive people who kept all the directions so it worked out well for everyone. I hope that she can pass it on to someone else who needs it.

We had one neighbor who gave us some toys that she wanted back. I thought it was a bit strange but my DS is not particularly rough and tumble so I wasn’t too worried about anything breaking. We returned them after he used them for a few years, so it worked out fine.

I was grateful to receive hand me downs, my cousin is fashion forward and willing to buy nicer stuff, so we inherited some really cute stuff. It lasted nicely. And went to my other cousin. I think some of the items have been on four or five of our kids. What, we all had kids with in a few years of each other. The cost of shipping an entire years wardrobe was less then buying one.
