Be HONEST! do you keep favors from special events or just toss em? explain.
Original post by justshir
i normally toss em. if i feel i absolutely have no use for them i'll toss it. but if the favor is from someone who's truly special to me then i would consider keeping it. i have enough clutter as it is so i feel any added objects is too much for me to handle. doesn't matter if the favor's a mini anything.

I keep useful favors (platters, cake servers, candles, frames, etc.) All others are tossed out.

We usually hold on to things, but since we're moving we've tossed all favorsl. I feel bad throwing stuff away that people spent money on, but then again if it was something I would actually use, it wouldn't get tossed.

I've kept just about everything. I would feel awful throwing something away that someone spent money on. If I was the type to toss everything, I'd leave it on the table and let someone else have it.

i wouldn't leave it behind only because i don't want the bride/groom to feel bad that one of their guests didn't like their selected favor of choice. due to this, i would take the gift with me and then toss it when i get home. i would toss it in a nearby trash bin but that might result in the bride / groom seeing it in the trash can. but.. if the gift is from someone really special to me i'll think about keeping it long term.
looks like the KEEPERS are trailing behind and the TOSSERS and DEPENDS 9no pun intended) are neck and neck! i guess we're not all the sentimental

If it's not useful or edible I toss it.

I usually keep it unless I find it totally hideous. After awhile, I notice it's collecting dust and trash it.

If it's edible or I can use it, I'll keep it. If not, I usually toss it.

Depends on what it is...if its a trinket I toss it, if I can use it (wine stopper, bottle opener, etc.) then I keep it. I like 'usable' favors...
Me too - usable or edible
Ditto. although I put tosser on the poll b/c most weddings I have gotten favors at were tossers.

I put depends.
If it is edible or useful I will keep it. If it is just going to collect dust, I usually toss it! I have too many dust collectors as it is!

I keep them all. I throw the box out that them came in but I love little favors. I find places all over my house for them.

i toss. thats why we arent doing favors. instead we are donating $500 to st judes children hospital in n.j. they give you a letter and you place it at the wedding letting your guests know why they didnt get a favor. they look for them even though they toss them lol

It depends on the favor-I have gotten many cheesy favors-they get thrown away, and then I have gotten a few nice ones that we have saved.

I keep them for sentimental purposes with the invite, and if I don't like them, I leave them on the table.
