Single (or Not) on Valentine's Day? Here's an idea for you…

Valentine’s Day could be the most controversial holidays – People either love celebrating who they love or deem the holiday a marketing scam.

Regardless of which side you’re on, here’s a phenom idea for those recently-single or coping with an ex-lover (courtesy of Colonial Park Goodwill in central PA): Dump your ex’s (stuff) & donate it!

Have old champagne glasses, mugs, vases, or other mushy ‘crap’ you can no longer bear to look at?  Drop them off at Philly area’s various Goodwill locales:

  • Retrospect Store, 534-536 South Street, Philadelphia, PA
  • 2601 S Front St Store, Philly
  • 2200 W. Passyunk Ave. Store, Philly
  • 7030 Colonial Highway, Retail Op. Center, Pennsauken, NJ
  • 5461 Route 70 Store, Pennsauken, NJ

Hold on to your ex’s weapons, large appliances, computers & large exercise equipment – You can’t donate them according to the Goodwill article detailing the v-day hand-off.
