Wanting to put together some backpacks filled with cold weather stuff like hats gloves and a thrifted puff jacket to hand out to the Homeless in my area, what are some other inexpensive items you would recommend I put in them?

    If you’re thinking of buying retail stuff to give out, it 's simpler to just give cash directly, since the recipient can figure out how to use it, and probably knows more about short cuts and bargain outlets than you do.

    Someone said refillable water bottles, but really, almost all bottles are refillable. I re-use “disposable” water and soda bottles all the time.

      Going to thrift most of it, will probably end up buying new socks though.
