Thrown out? Or donated? Are people really so lazy that they wouldn’t donate unused toys to a charity, church, or shelter?
Yes, they are that lazy.
Honestlyone of the best things you can do, other than not creating waste in the first place, is posting in your local buy nothing group.
To be fair what charity or church wants a pile of easily breakable, low value and low battery toys?
