Use it or toss it, or both

I bought some luminaries at a yard sale years ago. I liked them but they never made it to display. So I decided that I was either going to use them at Christmas (2014) or toss/donate them. It turned out that Christmas was not at my house. So I waited til New Year's Eve  I took them to a friend's and we set them up, lit them, showed them to the husbands and at the end of the night I told my friend she could keep or toss them.
