This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.
This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?
Just post some stuff and don't spam.

I would do this to incentivize shoppers to take as many as possible. Like at a charity shop that needs to make room for a sizable donation or just to churn the shelves a little.
The sign is still pretty amusing tho.
We do an annual charity book collection and we do this towards the end of the day too. We really don’t want any books left if we can avoid it.
