I saw a post a while back of some links people had of various charities and list of what you could claim for items such as pants = $7, shoes = $10, etc, etc. Does anyone have a link to that handy at all? I didn't bookmark it and now that I'm doing my taxes I could really use it.

Thanks.
 
this thread has what you are looking for


EDIT: If anyone knows, I donates LOTS of old clothes and misc items but only got one blank receipt for the whole thing. THe receipt has 10 lines to mark stuff on, can I just write on each line that I had X amount of pants that equals XX, next line X amount of shirts that equals XX? That way I can list everything I donated?
 
I've been using "It's Deductible" for years (it had a different name then, and was a booklet instead of software). It has very detailed lists (instead of just listing men's pants, it would have differerent listings for men's jeans, dress pants, casual, etc.) and each item was valued in good, fair, and poor condition. If you make a lot of non-cash donations, it is WELL worth it. I get full value for my donations and have them to back me up if there is a question about how I valued my items.

alm99, what I do is lay everything out on the floor and take a digital picture. Then I make my own itemized list, and staple a print of the photo, the charity's receipt, and my itemized list together each time I make a donation.
