My daughter graduated from college this summer and came back to live at home for a while, to save up money for her own apartment in San Francisco with a girlfriend in the new year. She brought back two carloads of clothes, shoes and household items and spent a week sorting and purging piles of unwanted stuff before her new job started. "Mom, I'm never buying anything again", she said, before we headed out to Goodwill to unload her unwanted. But when we got to Goodwill, the parking lot was so full of others discarded items, we could barely find a place to put them.
