    I keep a few items that I'm particularly attached to (read: lots! ) and give the rest to a women's refuge.

    I have bought from FB Buy Swap Sell groups. I prefer local to ebay.

    Depends on whether I am working or not - if not working I often sell items if can get a few dollars for them - on here (think is in platinum section), or at a baby kids market, this year am trying garage sale trail. If I am working then dollars aren't so crucial and time is more precious so I donate them to any charity bins there are around. (Depending on the items and whether I have friends who might want them I also offer to friends). I don't keep any.

    I donate.

    I figure that I can't afford to really make a difference by donating money to charity, we couldnt afford to keep going with our world vision sponsorship - so this is the only thing I can give.

    I could probably sell it and make some much needed cash - but it makes me feel better as a person to donate it.

    Do you have a local Buy Swap Sell site on FB?

    Thanks all for your replies. Much appreciated.

    I'd love to hand some/most of them over to a family member or close friend, but DS3 is the youngest child in those circles.

    I daresay 3/4 of what I've got will go to charity ... but if I can I'd like to get a few $$ back from all the money that I spent on baby clothes over the years. No idea about sites on FB Kim ... I might have a scout around.

    Thanks again.
