If dvds are going away like everyone says, there will likely come a time when the workouts you used to have will be out of print. Then what? I shudder at the thought myself! At this point, I figure unless I truly hate something I'm hanging onto it. Keeping this in mind, I've been buying workouts like crazy so that when the day comes that everything is streaming and dvds are no longer available I won't have any regrets.

I got rid of a lot of my beginner and intermediate workouts, but now I'm sorry because, as I've gotten older, I've needed easier workouts again. There are new ones to be bought I suppose, but I wish I had some of my old ones again.
Put the ones you don't use much into a box and write the date on it. I'd say that if you don't use them for a year, baring injury or traumatic life happenings, you could probably safely donate or sell them. A local women's shelter is a good place provided the workouts don't require a lot of equipment.] You can also share them with friends. I have two neighbors, one is a runner, and the other is a phys ed teacher. Neither of them are vidiots, but they do borrow them on occasion.

No, I haven't been able to do this without regret, or traders remorse Normally, I am by nature a clutter phobic person. I am always gathering things, clothing to take to Good Will. Recently I took a big box of Firm VHS tapes. A few days I called because I wanted it back. They said they couldn't find it I have often traded away workout DVD's, only to re-acquire them later. Ugh....I probably should just keep all that I have. My kids can inherit my large collection some day, lol! If I were you, I would be very careful about what you get rid of, unless you are absolutely sure!

The only DVDs I eliminate now are those that might be too "advanced" or that have a major dread factor for any reason. I store my currently inactive collection in 4 boxes, by category, on the bottom shelf of a bookcase. (I'm tall, and I've always disliked bottom shelves, so I use them for "inactive" stuff.) Periodically I go through the inactives and purge, but in another area I store the purged DVDs awhile longer before reselling. I've found it prudent to allow for second thoughts! |
