I throw magazines away.

I borrow books from the library and only purchase ones I know I love enough to read over and over.

I throw away old notes I took for classes. chances are, if I really want to look up a fact it'll be in the textbook.

I clean out my closet twice a year in spring and fall and donate things I won't wear to goodwill.

I clean out my makeup once a year. I clean out my hair products when the drawers are so full that they're jamming shut.

I recycle my old magazines once I'm done reading them. I usually don't reread them so I don't see the point of letting them pile up, and adding to the clutter.

I'm the same. I can't stand clutter and pack rats who hang on to everything.

I wasn't calling you a pack rat


Maybe you could keep a few of the magazines you really like and recycle the rest?
