Both Eunice and I are getting rid of a lot of stuff before we move.
I've been auctioning off almost my entire RPG collection. I started another batch on Thursday. Sadly, it's not going as well as I had hoped, but the auction is still early.
Last weekend we took a bunch of books to a local used book store. They had to give us 2 separate gift certificates because we got a little over $100 in store credit. The rest of the books (and there were a lot left over) went to Goodwill, along with 7 or 8 trash bags full of clothes.
Today we're heading to our local EB and FYE with two plastic bins and a small box full of CDs, DVDs, and XBox/Playstation games. Whatever they don't take will go along with 1 more large box (about 1.5 to 2x the size of a regular book box) of books to the used bookstore. Whatever survives that trip is once again going to goodwill, along with half a box of dishes.
It really is amazing how much stuff I have accumulated, and how much both of us are getting rid of. I didn't even mention the box of video tapes, or the stack of graphic novels. I think the graphic novels are going with me to work, where I hope to find good homes for them.
We're hoping to get the number of boxes we'll have down to 30 or so (from an estimated 60). I found some of the documentation from my last move, and I think I had 45 boxes then (plus 30 miscellaneous items). I think if we add Eunice's stuff to that the number of boxes shoots up to at least 60.
I just hope we can find good homes for our stuff, or at the very least the money it generates will help goodwill.

Don't forget the COTAE ... the Charity Of The Almighty Ethan!
Don't worry bud, I haven't forgotten you. The remainder of the Deadlands stuff is yours (all 3 flavors), as well as a few other miscellaneous things.
