Old Bottles- What did you do with them?

Old Bottles- What did you do with them?

I have two sets of bottles- Dr. Browns and Playtex Ventaire- that we are no longer using. I have about 6 of each. It feels so wasteful to throw them out. Does anyone know of another option? I guess donating them is weird... but they CAN be sterilized, so maybe it's not? Any ideas?

We packed them up and saved them for the next baby. I wouldn't donate them, but I'd give them to family/friends who could use them.

I would throw them out. I am planning on using the same brand of bottles for DD2 but still threw DD1's bottles out.

I packed mine up and used for our 2nd DS. But we did replace the nipples (Dr. Brown). After we are down, I will probably see if the church wants them. If they don't I will toss them.

I actually threw them out. We used the ventaire with DS now 3 years later with DD we bought new. Actually sometimes it costs about the same to just buy the nipples as a new bottle.

I replaced nipples and reused. My bottles are BPA free and can be sterilized, its wasteful to throw them out.

We saved them from one baby to the next. Then when we were done having kids, we asked around if friends/family wanted, and they ones they wanted we gave to them. The brands they didn't we tossed in the recycle bin.

I sterilized them and saved them for the next baby. I bought new nipples when I was ready to use them.
