answer:Since being with my shopaholic gf (and helping her get rid of some good stuff), I’ve been suspicious about whether this is the case. I’d be fine with it if it were about purchasing items every so often that the employee would use or even gift, but I’d be disappointed to know that stuff goes in the front door and out the back to be sold at the flea market. Regardless, it’s difficult to think of a more convenient and guilt-free way to get rid of one’s crap.
