I know the feeling of wanting to lose certain rockets with outrageous power that come back.
About the only one it worked out with was that old Polaris.
Have gotten Streaks and Mosquitoes back on stoopyd large power.

I've been using my excess as door prizes at our section launches. Much better than just throwing them out.

A box of "Free Stuff" at our club launches rarely comes home with anything in it. Some goes to good homes, others goes to hoarders, but it definitely goes somewhere.

I prefer to send them on one last glorious flight on the largest possible motor, maybe even with a CHAD booster, but yeah, those often come back anyhow.
