My daughter comes home from a very stressful day at work, which included two tyres being punctured on the M4 and a two hour wait for Green Flag to recover her to a tyre place.
She has a posh carrier bag, not one of those cheapo Tesco ones, containing her carefully folded very expensive leather jacket, some paperwork from work and some other personal stuff, which she leaves in the hall when she finally gets home.
Close to the front door, in an old Tesco carrier bag, is some old clothes ready to go to the clothes bank container nearby........ 8)
Guess what bag my Son-in-Law deposited in the clothes bank???
Trying to get the company to open the container to retrieve it is another story and is on going......
I am not going to let him forget it for many years to come and any conversation now refers to the carrier bag in some way... ------------------------------

Friend of mine did the same many years ago. He used to drop a bag of clothes of at his mum's every week for her to wash. One day she had popped out so he left it on her doorstep. Along comes the charity clothes collection people and gladly takes a big chunk of his wardrobe away.
I told him it serves him right for being a lazy and not doing his own washing D4 XS, gone, much loved, never forgotten

BIL and his other half moved house a little while ago. She put all her Jimmy Choo shoes (pretty expensive shoes) in black bin bags. Once in the new house BIL promptly threw them all out with the other rubbish, also in black bags. Other half not happy.

I did similar a few years ago. On moving house was told that bedroom all cleared and 'anything left, bag it and take to charity shop'.
I did think the chest of drawers full was a bit odd but SWMBO had instructed and I obeyed.
Apparently there was about £1000+ worth of expensive underwear in those drawers.......
Apparently I was supposed to know that when she said get rid of 'anything left' she obviously didn't mean them.......
