you knwo, people often suggest this if you don't have money to spend or want it to be from the heart, but i can't take this seriously from anyone over the age of 10.
in fact, i think my whole class did this in elementary school.

i worked for free people (owned by anthropologie/urban outiffters) and i knew that we "dimed out" old old sale merchandise but i think it then got sent to marshall's. i know a lot of urban's stuff gets sent to marshalls.
i wonder why anthro can't do that.. i guess it's not an option for furniture.

but yeah, it's really a shame. when i worked at virgin records as a teenager they always sent back (aka threw out) tons promo stuff (from posters to cds to dvds to games) and it would make me so mad because i wanted it! haha

my kitties!!
the artwork in my apartment. i love every piece.
a few things stuck to the fridge/magnets - i think THIS makes a house seem lived in!
opening the blinds and letting the sunlight in - and the view of the park across the street!

i live in a smaller complex with one washer and dryer -
i definitely follow the "leave it on top of the dryer" rule.
there's no harm done.
i would never dry a load for someone... because i wouldn't want most of my things dry..
and i would NEVER fold someone's stuff - that's just overkill and weird.

i always leave my basket behind just in case someone else comes down. i think its obvious they can put my things in the basket.

as long as you don't throw it on the floor or something - who cares!
