"If you're tempted to keep someting because it was expensive, remember the difference between value and cost. Value is what something is worth.  You spent a lot of money on it. To throw it away would mean admitting that the money was wasted. Now you need to think about the cost. What is it costing you to keep this item? How much space? How much energy? What about the peace of mind that comes from having a clean home full of things you use? You once made a decision to purchase this expensive thing that you never use. Now, if you keep it, you'll be throwing good space after bad money."
