I have told mum that I don't want any more & she hasn't bought any for a while which is great. She did buy a set for DD for her birthday though.
Sorry Anney, I use my small containers all the time. It's the big stuff I don't use.
I think I might pack it away for a while until I feel less guilty about parting with it. Illusions wine glasses, various salad bowls, hamburger maker (NEVER used lol! - I can sell this one cos I bought it before I had much tupperware), happy chopper (used once), wine cooler, large jug (very nice but rarely used ), food mill. I'm salivating at the extra cupboard space once they are gone lol!
LOL girls you have to learn to let go of that gift thing, otherwise you will end up like my poor auntie! She is 70 and clearing out my nanas house to sell after 56 years, as my nana is in a nursing home. She won't throw anything out and is trying to return things to the people who gave them to my nana. Imagine one day someone opening your packed away Tupperware! LOl.
Rowellen, when your kids are bigger the wine glasses will be handy. We use them for kids if adults are drinking to make them feel grown up and great for tossing in a bag for picnics.

I used to feel the same way about gifts but recently have been having a clear out around home and selling on gumtree all the stuff that just sits there going unused like my mixmaster, breadmaker etc - they were wedding gifts.
Is there anything that you need/want that you can use the money you make selling the tupperware to help purchase? After my mum gave me a guilt trip for selling the chiminea she bought me for a wedding anniversary present that I've used about 3 times I told her that I was using the money to put towards a new dining table which is something we need and will use everyday.
If you do sell, you'd probably get a good price for the illusions. They are really popular and when I used to sell Tupperware everyone would ask me if they were ever coming back in.
LOL I have talked to DH & he reckons sell! The wine glasses are quite scratched now. The kids pull them out and play with them all the time. I doubt I'd get much but I think you're right, Anney, I will keep them so they can pretend to be all grown up. Now to get started
If you do go ahead and sell, im searching for the breeze bowls and modular mates in black ooh and mini ladles
Im like that with the kids toys, they have so many, but i feel guilty giving things away that either was a gift or mum got them etc.. it really can do ur head in, we are moving in 4 months and i need to cull their toys, im leaving it till last lol
for her birthday though.
), food mill. I'm salivating at the extra cupboard space once they are gone lol!
