In the aftermath of the demise of my Sweet Wife (SW) last August I have 17 cartons (unopened) and a half a carton (opened) of Depends (women’s, medium, new style). Also maybe a cartonful of Hospice stuff. What to do with all that?
I got it all on sale at Costco for about $32/Ctn (regular price about $42/Ctn). (Cut me a fat hog). 88 Depends per Ctn comes out about 36 cents per Depend. Not too shabby. Selling it en mass might be nice but I’m afraid whoever bought it (them) might turn around and sell them at a profit. I don’t want that at all and won’t have it. What I want is it (them) to go to someone who is squeezing out the pennies and sweating the dollars. I can’t write them off as a donation because I can’t beat the standard deduction. Craig’s list doesn’t seem like a good way because I just don’t want people coming to my house to case the joint. Am I a mistrustful suspicious bast..uh paranoid? Yup!
What most people refer to as Northern California is several hours south of where I live so there isn’t a big city market. How can I give em to or get them to or distribute them (free preferably or otherwise) or make their presence known to what might be termed (politely) deserving peoples?
(I suppose this applies to people working in home care too!)
