I'm a major packrat but I say that I come by it genetically-- so are my parents. It was soooooooo much fun (not) preparing their house for an estate sale when they downsized to a retirement community. My mother had every cancelled check she'd ever written (and they'd been in that house 35 years), every sewing pattern she'd ever bought (including her wedding dresss and our baptismal gowns). Nostalgia is one thing-- my nieces enjoyed finding authentic vintage 70s clothing (that goodwill donation that never happened) but it bordered on ridiculous!
