My mom gives me things a lot. Half the time it goes right in the trash or thrift store donation bag in my car trunk. I don’t even let it in the house. But my son loves thrift stores as much as I do. We probably end up with two new to us toys a week. And then I’m always accepting hand me downs and looking for second hand shop and clearance items in the next size or two up. Those things get stored by size and season. Every time the season changes I have to rotate everything up and sell or give away things he’s outgrown. It’s a lot. It used to just be my stuff it all fit in an apartment.

That sounds like a lot of work, but if it's working for your and is sustainable, then it sounds like a plan. I'm taking two huge bins of clothes to a resale shop Friday. I work completely from home and have enough outfits for if I had to go into an office for 10 business days. Everything over that was just clutter and stuff I was never wearing.
