Anyone keep stuff, whether it be electronics, books, etc, even though you haven't used it in years, or only used a few times?
I have a tablet that I used to take everywhere, until I got a smartphone. Now, I don't use it that much.

Absolutely nothing. I am a minimalist. If I don't use something, I get rid of it.

When I moved out of my parents house about fifteen years ago, I raided their basement for any old appliances or other house junk they had that I thought I could use. Got a blender I would use somewhat regularly until it broke a few years ago, and a dish set I still use today. But I also grabbed an Ice Cream Maker that in the last fifteen years I only used once to really mixed results. Yet it's still sitting in a box in a cabinet in my kitchen.

Organising my house right now, found a few of these.
- Tassimo coffee maker and drip coffee maker despite the fact that I only ever use my Keurig
- Roaster that can handle about a 20lbs turkey, never used, never serve meals at my house
-Pasta pot that either has never been used, or not since I was married
- Laptop from 2007, don’t even think it has a HDD in it
-More bathroom towels then you average family of 4 probably has, always use the same 2-3.
-6 spare couch pillows, only have one couch and it’s got matching pillows
Might update this list later

So much. I'm up to nine bookcases double stacked with books, and I probably won't re-read a lot of then again, but I can't get rid of them.

My PS2. It's been sitting under my TV since 2009. I've moved home twice in that time.

Books, old Halloween costume stuff, some kitchenware things that will be useful when other things need retired.

Not too much. Mothar liked to horde before we kicked her out. So, we tend to go through our stuff and throw away what we don't use or give it to someone who can use it. Some random kids got a bitchin' Marvel coloring book because I knew I'd never touch it. My brother took an old phone charger to work and it became the community charger...until some trashkabob took it.

My "portable" CRT TV/VCR Combi. What if I get a "if you are watching this tape"/ransom video in VHS format? Can't be too careful.

Clothes I can no longer fit.
“You’ll fit back into them someday.”
Yeah right.
Wrestling dvds
PS2 only held onto it to play Fire Pro. Wish they’d make it for the Switch but that’s another topic.

I still have my NES, SNES, and Genesis in my closet. And I would use them but I still don’t have the proper adapter for hooking them to an HD TV.
I also have a shelf full of VHS tapes I don’t want to get rid of even though my VHS player died years ago.

Most of my video games, video game consoles, and blu-rays.
I have a VCR. I haven't watched a VHS since the early 2000's. I'm trying to minimize this year and go digital as much as I can, but yeah, I'm a hoarder at heart.

I have a rather substantial collection of coffee mugs that I inherited from my mother after she passed. I don't drink coffee.

Clothes I can no longer fit. “You’ll fit back into them someday.” Yeah right. Oh man, me too. I have clothes ranging from size 10 AU (which I've never fit into, but keep because hope springs eternal), ranging to size 20 AU (which I've never been, but I keep because I might get fatter).
