Haul It or Keep It?

Another Episode of Haul It or Keep It

We've all faced the dilemma of whether to keep or get rid of items. It's not easy, we know. Getting rid of stuff usually seems like a bad idea. Afterall, the second you rid yourself of a useless widget you'll need it the next day. This is your chance to be the judge without the fear of repercussions.

Hangin' with Michael B.

Like many proud musical enthusiasts, Michael Bolton (no relation) has been building his cd stash for decades. It contains all 130 Now That's What I Call Music albums, including the Christmas and Country editions.

He also has every number 1 album as identified by the Billboard charts since 1990. Can you figure out how many that is? No? Neither can we, but it's a butt load. Just kidding, we know how to count, its like 400.

Now Michael is faced with a decision:

Is it time to dump the collection he has worked so hard to build, spent thousands of dollars to create and risk creating a modern-day Gollum who will forever spend his life shouting “Lost! My precious is LOOOOSSST!" at random strangers on the street?

Should he keep his prized and precious collection?

The Box

Steve recently bought a new tv, while he was installing it he pulled out an old box of electronic supplies. It has been the catch all for electronic odds and ends over the years.

Though as he tried to unravel the cords he was faced with a knot that would put Clark Griswold to shame. His over stuff box contains A/C adapters, a computer mouse and keyboard, audio cables, computer speakers, 6 different phone chargers, Microsoft Office Home and Student 2007, HDMI cables, A/V cables, antenna/cable switches, and several RCA cables also various power strips and extension cords.

Now while some items in this box could be deemed useful Steve hasn’t touched it in years.

HAUL IT OR KEEP IT?

Suzy Homemaker has been collecting gadgets for years.

Here’s a list of the crap, I mean, helpful kitchen gadgets she owns:

Banana slicer, pineapple slicer, onion slicer, you know what, she actually has a separate slicer for: mushrooms, eggs, tomatoes, corn, avocados, strawberries, asparagus, bell peppers, and apples.

Oh and guess what else? She has a roll and pour, a real life roll and pour! Also some pizza scissors, an egg separators, a chop and stir, a fondue set, and a popcorn maker. The kitchen gadgets in her house puts QVC to shame. You could host a year's worth of infomercials with the items in just one of Suzy’s kitchen drawers.

Is it time for Suzy to invest in a Wusthof knife set and ditch all the gadgets or are they valuable enough to warrant all the space they take up?

HAUL IT OR KEEP IT?

And now, a word from our sponsor.

The Struggle Is Real

When Shawn and Giselle, let's call them Jay & B for short, found out there were having twins they knew they had to make some room in their house.

They cleared out their guest room, and filled it up with cribs, changing tables, toy boxes, and all that other crap babies need. Now Jay and B are stuck with an extra set of bedroom furniture.

Jay wants to get rid of it, but B wants to keep it so they can set it up again when/if they move into a bigger house.

B wants a place for family and friends to stay when they come to visit, and we all know what a rip off the furniture store can be. So she advocates keeping it until it can be used again. Jay, on the other hand, doesn’t want a mattress, bed frame and dresser hogging up anymore space in their house or garage.

What should this power couple do?
