Do you save your selvages?

Oh, I struggle with this one! I've seen several cute things made with the selvages in the mags and on here. So now I'm saving some of them but I shouldn't. I save way too many scraps and threads. You know I might want to make a dog bed and donate to a shelter! But I probably never will. I actually did use a piece of the selvage on the label for my DGD's quilt. So that's one 5 inch piece. Now I need to go watch a Hoarder's show, always makes me get rid of something:)
