Do you have a designated "junk drawer" in your house?

Asked by Dutchess_III (46853points) August 26th, 2018

I just saw a FB post asking if “junk drawers” was a midwest thing, because, supposedly, if this person mentions “junk drawer” to someone not from the midwest they look at her crazy.

Do you have a junk drawer?

I’ve had a junk drawer in three states not in the same part of the country. I’ve never had anyone not understand the universal “junk drawer.”

I didn’t understand it either. We’ve always had junk drawers, everywhere we lived, from Seattle to Florida to Kansas.

People around the whole world have junk drawers.
Where else to leave your empty batteries, mismatched keys, aspirins, tooth picks, elastic bands, beer bottle openers, tape measures, pins, multi vitamin pills, lint lone pastry forks, etc.

Drawer? No. I have a junk room, although it’s a pretty organised junk room.

I’m pretty good about rotating stuff out so I don’t have enough to fill up a room.

Yes but it also has useful stuff like screwdrivers and sticky tape.

We have a tool box for tools, like screw drivers. Although, I have my own secret stash of tools.
