Note: You do not need to itemize used
clothing, hygiene supplies, art and school supplies, fishing supplies, etc.
Simply count the articles and note the number. You need to estimate true value,
but value on used clothing is very low. (Nancy has been averaging
$2.00-3.00 an article except for jackets and boots, $4.00.) A typical 20
lb. box has been running $32-50, depending on how many things other than clothes
that are put in.
