    Salvation Army? Goodwill? Freecycle? Any clothing and shoe donation drop box that's most likely in the parking lot of your local grocery store? :)

    I need new clothes but I'm super poor, what size clothes are you tryna donate.

    I really can't keep buying new clothes just to drop sizes a few months later lol

    There are donation bins for various charities in parking lots all over my town, I don't think that's uncommon. Some areas have active freecycle lists, too, where you could offer them directly to someone who needs them rather than give them to a charity to sell.

    Freecycle is a good resource if you need new clothes frequently as you shrink, too, chel325. Some lists will even let you request specific things- a lot of people flake out on pickups, so some people will go out of their way to give you stuff they might not have bothered to list, if you request it.

    Don't let that stop you from reaching your goal! Do you have consignment shops or places like Goodwill near you? You have to do a little searching, but you can find good, nice clothes at very decent prices.

    Try making a post looking for clothes your size on your local freecycle.org or the Free section of craigslist.org. Lots of people in my freecycle group use it to clean out our closets.

    Some clothes that are too big can be adjusted with a good tailor. I recently had several pairs of pants taken in, and it cost $10 (CDN) per pair. I cant buy a new pair of pants for $10.

    I donate my stuff to the Salvation Army or those planet something donation boxes can't rennet the names, but you just stuff your items in a bin and it's donated! However, I personally like Salvation Army better you get a receipt so come tax time they are deductive! Or any other organization is fine as well.
