I personally am weird about old shoes. I only donate old shoes that i had bought and never wore much for whatever reason. I don't mind hand me down clothes but I do not like hand me down shoes. There is no telling what lurks in them. It ranks up there with not sharing underclothes. I think old shoes contains a lot of bacterias, fungi :eek: . OMG, this purge I found those 17!!!yrs :o old pull-on leather boots:

Copy the link. Haha ...the straightness of the upper boot -they look like stovepipes :lol:

I´m all for donating, but uncomfortable old boots? Alone the old stiff leather make me cringle :eek: . My question is:
Are those 17yrs old pull-on leather boots
- donation items
- or unhygienic, gross items which belong into the non-recyclable/burnable garbage bag?

Need advice!! Please only serious answer!!

one mans trash is another's treasure. as long as they aren't dangerous i'd donate them.

So I wasn't paying attention to who the poster was ....

Google to find the image ... and found this post :smirk:

Guess someone is really worried about these boots :lol:

Anytime I donate shoes I just spray some Lysol in them. I figure this will kill any gross fungi hanging on in there.

Ewww .....old stiff leather ......germs, bacterias, fungus. Yiiiiiiiiikes ....those old leather boots were not vintage - just old, gross stuff . Not donation items, think those 15 year old boots were unhygienic, disgusting household garbage which should be burned in the local garbage incinerator. Do you agree with me? "

So, did you throw them away in November like this post says?

Is it Nicole or Chrissy?

Are you the woman in your avatar or some creepy foot fetishist?

Curiouser and curiouser....

Why does the internet bring out all the freaks?!
