File this one under "too good to throw away" (TGTTA): 20(and I'm being conservative here)-year-old multi-coloured cotton balls, still in original (though broken and, might I add, snaggy?) container.

Let's all just pause and think about the thought process of the person who decided to donate these to the thrift store.
