Help, I Don't Want to End Up on "Hoarders"


I'm looking for some feedback today. I have nine of these empty cereal boxes, the five above and four duplicates. Do you think I should save them or are they just overproduced packaging that I should toss?

I don't want to throw out something valuable but I don't want to end up on "Hoarders".

  1. toss 'em... I, like you, tend to hang on to these, until the day comes when I ask myself what the hell am I keeping these for???

  2. Throw them on eBay, I'm sure someone would think they're collectible.

  3. Use 'em to fill space in monster or set boxes...

  4. Fill them with cereal, shrinkwrap it, then sell it on eBay as an error; jackpot, mojo money!

  5. You would have to change your name if you tossed them. Unless you don't consider these cards, then just the sheer fact that you are questioning whether to keep them or not is an indication you should get rid of them. I like the Ebay idea. Someone will buy them.

  6. Its "Can't Have Too Many Cards" not "Can't Have Too Many Empty Boxes"! I generally save the first, but as soon as they get more in the way OR I actually try to clean, they end up as shipping boxes, packing material, space fillers in monster boxes (like GCA said) or in the fireplace or trash depending on the season... I know it is difficult to trash an image of Jackie Robinson, but...
    Honestly, more often than not I send them to someone else so they have to make the difficult decision.

  7. I would just toss them in recycling.

  8. I smell a contest. Fill them with marbles, jelly beans, or something else and have people guess how many they can hold. If not I would say recycle them.
