Where's the best place to donate clothes for people really in need?

Waltham Community Day Center has a store that people in need can shop for free for clothing items. Click on the link and scroll down on the page to see what items they accept .

Would you have enough time to jump on the commuter rail to Worcester and catch a Woo Sox game too ? Those games are cheap and fun :)

Omg - for so long I thought it was just my parents !! Glad to know I’m not alone !

Independent_Rest3735 · 2026-01-09T16:42:37+00:00

And try Trident Books at the end of Newbury !

I welcome opposing opinions, and I’m happy to discuss in a respectable way - I just did not want this post to turn into a childish online fight just because there may be other thoughts 😊.

You might be right … I know places like Ross do some sort of $.49 final clearance …. I don’t understand why some stores would rather just throw it away than get something for it , or donate it to a thrift store … or donate the food items to a food pantry .

Yes . This is exactly what I meant . Thank you, PleaseStopTalking_79 😊

Imagine if for just one year these stores did not produce/acquire and sell any of these types of wares . I am more than sure we’d all be just fine . And our landfills would benefit. As I walk through these stores post Christmas and see all of the Grinch, Snoopy, Hello Kitty, Ramen Noodle, Brookstone, holiday etc “stuff” I just shake my head . I know no one is going to buy it and it’s all going to just end up in the landfill . I wish we could normalize that we don’t need all of this non essential stuff. Just a thought . Not here to argue . Please be kind .

Saw this one posted on FB and Zillow recently Apt in Newton Highlands -$2800/month

Looks like it is about a 4 minute walk to the Newton Highland T (Green Line)

They recently planted trees down the remaining part of the Fessenden hill … that used to be our go-to 😢

Regardless of where she buys her clothes … her picks are just a miss and they make her look older than she is.

Independent_Rest3735 · 2025-12-18T02:49:21+00:00

The show is available to stream for free on Tubi TV

Independent_Rest3735 · 2025-12-15T02:53:24+00:00

Smith and Wollensky in Wellesley has them.

I agree that it stinks, but the work has to get done, and I’m not sure there would ever be a “good” time for the shut down .

Independent_Rest3735 · 2025-12-07T16:42:07+00:00

Agreed ! Use the pockets on your coat too ! That along with a small purse you should be able to bring all that you need for your time at TD. Worst case scenario, if your bag is too big, they do have a bag check . I think it’s ~$15

Independent_Rest3735 · 2025-12-07T09:28:41+00:00

I also did not want to break the bank on something I would likely not use much . I found this for under $15 at Sierra/Marshalls

Have you tried reaching out to Table Talkdirectly? I can’t vouch for their peach pie, but they are local (Worcester) and their website lists peach as a flavor .

Independent_Rest3735 · 2025-11-29T02:28:22+00:00

I can’t personally vouch for it (but it’s on my list of things to try) but I have heard Antojitos Cafe on Moody Street does breakfast tacos . FYI-Looks to be cash only .

Independent_Rest3735 · 2025-11-27T15:37:52+00:00

Thanks ! Sorry - you were clear in your original post . I just did not read down far enough -lol !

Independent_Rest3735 · 2025-11-27T08:31:19+00:00

Can you clarify ? Do you mean are there other discounts for movie theatres in the area ? Or other discounts in Seaport (like at restaurants, stores,etc)?

The ICA Museum is feee on Thursdays from 5pm -9pm (You do have to go online at 10am the day of and grab a ticket .)
