"Yes, very rude. I worked in a charity shop once and sadly I found out that too many people think that's an OK thing to do.  "
Get 'em on ebay!! You'll make a mint for the charity |

I don't know about down south but in Scotland, they don't take underwear. I used to volunteer for a charity shop and they just binned them. Besides, why would you want to give pants to charity? Unless they were still in their packaging of course  |

"I have volunteered at charity shops. You would not believe what people think acceptable as a donation"
Someone donated a blow up tree but really it just looked like a dildo. There was a lot of laughing that day  |

Oh wow really? I donate clothes often but only really give things that actually are in decent quality and of course are clean! |

 . But seriously though, whatever it is just wash it, dust it and make sure it's in good repair. Nobody wants your filthy old rubbish. |

Exactly. I don't know if they still do but they used to sell rags to the modern day equivalent of a rag and bone man. |

For the record, I do whenever recycle clothes through charities when possible and always ensure it is something that will sell on.
I have given older more worn but very wearable clothes especially coats to homeless people, never underwear though.  |

"Charity is a very difficult thing to be on the receiving end of. I'm very aware of that whenever I make any sort of donation and I'm careful as far as possible to allow recipients their dignity. "

I think you only realise this if you've been on the receiving end. |
