Have been donating the toilitries for years my local VA s only ren minutes away. So many vets have nothing when they are trying to get settled in. Also the shelters get some. The extra gifts usually go to family and friends who are just starting out.

I plead guilty due to the lack of sleep your honor and distinguished jurors. I understand a lack of sleep is not perhaps an acceptable reas...

Tedlark, were autopsies conducted on the deceased couple? Did the authorities confiscate any of your coffee packets for testing after the couple died? I am curious....sounds very suspicious.

(1) Donating accumulated items from travels is a common event that has happened for decades. Nothing to see here . . . Moreover, for those of us who travel a lot, it is noted that many hotels are using shower wall mounted shampoo, conditioner, and body wash in giant containers. The days of getting individual personal care items may be soon extinct.

(2) Collecting casino junk . . . oops, I meant "gifts" is baffling. Never "regifted" it to somebody, even family members . . . If we bother to pick it up, it is driven straight to the Goodwill donation center, never makes it into my home/garage.

There are only two items we keep: gift cards and liquor. Picked up two $25 Amazon gift cards recently, for example. As for the liquor . . . we don't drink, but can't just drop that off at Goodwill. One of the locals here in Vegas seems to like giving away alcohol 4 or 5 times every month. (maybe that says something about their demographics). So, if we bother to pick it up, it goes in the garage and then given away ASAP to the gardener, etc.

3 days and then it gradually deteriorates. Still drinkable for a long time though just never gets better.
