I my area there was a shop for women to rent dresses, for formal and informal events. They don't seem to stay open though since maybe women like to own the dresses once they buy them. I don't but maybe most women do?
I took three of my dresses there, all very formal prom type dresses, and got a percentage of the profits for every time they were rented. However, a few weeks later the store was closing and she asked if I wanted them back, then we found out her assistant had stolen my dresses! I would have just donated them anyway but I didn't want her to have one. The others got donated by my request and I got a tax receipt.
I almost bought that shop, needed $15,000 which I had, but chose not to since it was in a declining area. Every once in a while I wondered about if I should have bought it or not.
