What is something you regret throwing/giving away?
 
Tough one because there are probably a few things that I've just forgotten about.

There was a brief period where I regretted giving away my PlayStation 1 but honestly, it was probably a good thing. I wouldn't have touched it and whoever got it probably enjoyed it a lot more than I would.
 
I'm sure there are lots of things I regretted throwing away/giving away for a time but it was probably better in the end. There are something things, however, that you think "Oh, I could have used that just now!" after throwing/giving it away.
 
I regret buying jewelry as a gift and getting married to my ex wife. If I could go back and change it. I would.
 
My backup laptop I sold gave my brother. I save gave instead of sold because he paid me $100 that my mom immediately took and then I've never seen the other $100 he owes for it so gave.
 
Nothing really. There was stuff I had some feelings about, but if it was actually that important, it wouldn't have wound up in the discard pile. A week later, I couldn't have even told you what I was so worried about tossing, let alone still missed it.
 
All my wigs and costumes i've been collecting through the years :( I only have 3 left now.

Siblings are so nice aren't they?

I wish mine would disappear.
 
I sort of regret giving away my Super Nintendo (SNES) which could have got me some money at gamestop. Which they are now taking old consoles for cash and trade-in. I don't suppose I regret it too much because the person I gave it to is a friend. But would of got me a few bucks.
 
Some wheels/bearings off a skateboard my dad got for me at a really difficult time - i still have the actual board itself and the trucks, but it'd still be nice to have the whole thing and it feels like I disrespected my dad a bit to have done that (but I was 12 when I gave them away so I didn't really think of it like that).
 
I regretted giving out my iPhone 6 and bought a new phone. But no more regret as i got myself iPhone 8
 
It's my Playstation 2 which I gave away to my cousin that I regret. I so much love that Playstation console but I had to give it away to him since I don't play on it often.
 
Very little. Sometimes I regret getting rid of older consoles and games, but then I really think to myself if I'd want to store ALL of that stuff for years to be able to sell a few for a profit later. And since I hate clutter, the answer is always no.
 
I think it would be my baseball card collection. I got rid of a huge collection many moons ago and wish I didnt.
 
I regret giving away all the old stuff about my biological parents. However, if I am not going to do this, I will not be able to achieve my goal of being a minimalist.
 
Giving out my old laptop to buy a new one. Now my new one is acting up daily.
