“Place to donate unused pregnancy tests?”

“I have a close friend who expected to be working on getting pregnant for awhile, and as such, she stocked up on dozens of pregnancy and ovulation tests while they were on sale a few months ago. We are all super excited that she and her husband had no problems and are already past the first trimester of a healthy pregnancy. This will also likely be their only child, at least for the next few years. Now she has a stockpile of tests, still shrink wrapped in the original packaging and with expiration dates in the 2017-2018 range. She reached out to me because I’ve volunteered with a number of local women’s organizations, but we are striking out finding a place that will take them. Two places told me to sell them on Craigslist at a discount, lol, but my friend really wants to donate in order to hopefully provide a service to someone who may financially need it… especially given the political developments of the last week. Does anyone have knowledge of places that do accept new-in-packaging, over-the-counter pregnancy tests, or do you have any recommendations for places to contact? Thanks!!!”

Finding a gift for moms can be difficult. Google “Mother’s Day gifts,” and you’ll scroll through endless lists of beauty products, candles and fuzzy robes. Sure, those are sweet, but sometimes it’s fun to surprise loved ones with something a little more, well, practical!

Here’s one idea: Give her a gift certificate for a home cleaning from Well-Paid Maids. It’s the perfect “thank you,” “I love you” or “you’ve got this” for any mom. She can schedule the home cleaning at her convenience and breathe easy knowing she has one less thing to do.

Our cleaners will take care of everything, including vacuuming and mopping as well as cleaning and dusting countertops, tables, mirrors, appliances and more. Sinks, toilets, showers and appliance exteriors also get a good scrub.
