My mom volunteers at a local hospital/charity thrift shop. Every now and then I make a visit and find a few really bad car seats for sale and make her toss them in the dumpster. Yesterday, she tossed out a Right Start shield booster and a nasty High back booster/combo seat with no straps. It looked like it was OLD. She thinks I am crazy, but she listens to me anyway! Normally she doesn't accept them from people who donate them,but the other women who work there are in their 80's and have no clue about anything. They even put broken dishes out for sale !My mom is constantly throwing junk in the dumpster.
