We just used this to distribute my grandmothers belongings between us granddaughters. She just passed. It turned a sad situation into a very fun and pleasant one. We got to remember our grandmother and enjoy this process in a really fun and easy way! Everyone is happy!
Drama-free and fun!
Thank you,
