I haven't purchased anything, not even a split shot, in 3 years.

Thought about putting some tackle together to give to some young angler wanting to get into the sport. 

My youngest nephew has gotten bitten hard by the bass bug so last time he was up here I sent him home with a banker's box full of plastics with instructions to sort it all out and give what he didn't want to his friends.  By Thanksgiving I am going to have a box of hardbaits for them as well.

That's awesome! It's how good things can start, with the exception of the future bait monkey. It's better if someone can use it instead of it sitting around. I like the less is more approach.
