And I'm not taking things from people that they'd be using, but things they would have passed on to someone anyhow, so why not benefit from it. There's no shame in getting free things. Even rich friends of mine like freebies. You don't have to be a welfare case to get hand me downs.Penniless Parentinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17671140279531925880noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1300660817354328186.post-26381365774267159802018-11-05T10:53:35.892+00:002018-11-05T10:53:35.892+00:00Don't you feel that they are treating you as a...Don't you feel that they are treating you as a welfare case?<br />Smooth Alphonso Santorinihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11383242798166915097noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1300660817354328186.post-18629822306419655912018-10-30T10:25:41.536+00:002018-10-30T10:25:41.536+00:00When my husband worked as a handyman, he too was g...When my husband worked as a handyman, he too was given free things. People like giving to people they know; it feels more personal than just dropping stuff off at the thrift shop. He was always clear though that if we couldn't use the item, it would be passed on to someone who could. Otherwise feelings would get hurt.Annemariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16339588714378852066noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1300660817354328186.post-77506827749241459482018-10-30T08:28:46.266+00:002018-10-30T08:28:46.266+00:00growing up, I wore hand me downs from cousins, and...growing up, I wore hand me downs from cousins, and then one of my cousins sent her daughters' clothes to mine.
