Query

Is there anything that people will not take if you put it outside your house under a sign that says, "free stuff"?

The answer is no.

People will stop and pick up damn near anything.

Last week I put out a bunch of stuff, including a well-used cat tree, and by the next morning it was gone. Today I put out another huge bunch of stuff, including mismatched dishes -- nothing fancy, mind you, just plain old dishes -- Christmas ornaments that are hardly heirloom-quality, beat up pots and pans and two bags full of utensils -- again, nothing special, just Target-quality, well-used cutlery -- and it was gone in about an hour.

I can't wait for the yard sale on Saturday. I'm saving the good crap for that!
