Too Good to Use - Are You Hoarding Stuff You Never Use?

Too good to use - are you hoarding stuff you'll never use? 

Have you inherited family treasures that are too good to use so you're storing them for a rainy day?
Do you have freeitis, even if you're a clean freak?

Angela Brown, The House Cleaning Guru talks about compulsive behavior, hoarding and weird habits of keeping stuff too good to use.
In this ownership economy, you don't have to keep gifts you don't need or want just because they are freebies.

Today's #AskaHouseCleaner sponsors are Savvy Cleaner (house cleaner and maid service training and certification.) HouseCleaning360 (List your cleaning business or find a cleaning business.) And Savvy Perks (a hub of consumable, non-hoardable give gifts, bonuses and experiences.
