Funny how acceptance of donations seems to be a regional thing. Our Salvation Army stores will no longer take magazines of any kind. We do have another thrift shop here (called Savers) that will take magazines. We used to have one Goodwill here but it closed down several years ago.
It's nice of you to decide to offer the magazines here. I'm sure it will make a few people really happy! |

I would make it clear that the books will be random and you arent going to sort them out. I am pretty sure it is the medium size flat rates that hold magazines nicely.
Half price books will also buy them if you have one of those stores close so you could make a little bit of money! |
PLEASE do not toss them.
Donate, Donate, Donate. J J |
I found a lady who is always happy to have them and I drop them off when I have a bag full. Also have donated to my guild and to local library (that has a resale section) where they go fast.

I just donated a big stack of magazines to my local elementary school for crafts.

I would love to have a box or two also. If you can pack a Large Priority Mail Box - preferably the board game size box - it would only cost about $16 per box.

Do you have a senior center near by?
We have a gold key sewing group at the local center. I am sure a group like that, if near you, would like them. |
I mentioned to my long arm quilter that I was getting rid of quilting magazines. She belongs to a quild. She said bring them to me, I will most certianly find them a new home.

Donate them to a library, tha'ts what I do.
