NYC clothing exchange



Recommended Posts

For those in the NYC area, I just received an email from NYU Bariatric Group. There will be a clothing exchange on September 7th. I've cut and pasted the info below. I'm bringing a bunch of things that no longer fit me and were very gently worn including my winter coat from last year. I hope everything gets taken. I also hope that others on this site stop by to drop off or pick up new things.

Join us in midtown Manhattan

Sunday * September 7, 2014 * 11 a.m.–2 p.m.

Where: BOTTOMLESS CLOSET

[in the Hotel Pennsylvania opposite Penn Station & Madison Square Garden]

401 Seventh Avenue, Level B, Suite 40 (bet. West 32nd and West 33rd Streets)

*** Take Elevator #1 to Level B; follow signs ***

  • Everything must be clean, intact and ready for wearing.
  • Intimates (e.g., workout clothes, underwear, swimwear, sleepwear, socks, hosiery) must be new/unused/unworn.
  • Accessories are great (belts, jewelry, scarves, neckties, purses, shoes, etc.).
  • Dressing rooms are available.

If you need nothing now, feel free to stop by with items you're no longer using and stay for the conversation.

Bottomless Closet, our host, helps disadvantaged NYC women enter and succeed in the workforce and improve the quality of their lives. All items not adopted during our event are donated to BC. Documents will be available for tax purposes.

Contact bandsterswap@yahoo.com if you have any questions about the exchange. If you'd like to help set up, please come at 10:00. If you're able to stay a little past 2:00 to straighten up, please do.

THANK YOU FOR POSTING THIS, GoWalking!! I missed the last Bottomless Closet and was pretty upset about it. Their emails must be going into my spam folder because I did not see that email. (Let me go check)

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
