I think my winner would be the two flamingo plushies I keep because hey they might come in handy for an avatar some day even though that's so weirdly specific

Optional: Create an avatar featuring your silliest "just in case" item, or someone else's.

That would be "Chin UP!" for me. Most avis already alter my face or head, but in this case it works. Current avi.

I can't let go of the plushies either...they are so stinkin cute.
I have a bunch of weird stuff I will probably never use because I have a hoarding problem. Especially some of the sponsored items. Like this hot trash User Image

I'ma be honest--I usually have the opposite problem. I have repeatedly sold an item and then bought it again . . . That said, I do have a lolcat monorail cat halo in my invo (never used it), and even if I trash them all, I'll go out of my way to pick up and keep The Sun (Om Nom). Goes with nothing, but I love that thing

There's a few items that I keep towards the top of my invo that are "just in case" things, like those basic bras/shorts/panties/shirts that are as old as the website itself. I've actually used them a few times in newer avis to like "fill in the gaps" of some outfits, but I usually don't touch them. But I do have two weird ones I hold onto even though I never ever use them.
I hold on to these 2 - User ImageUser Image - because they're two of 3 (maybe 4?) items that you can use to make your avi invisible, like for scenics. There's specific poses in each them that, when all used together, erase your avis body so its just the background and/or any foreground items.
It's one of the older methods for disappearing your avi, and I remember never being able to get my hands on the last item(s) I needed for it. Plus, I don't even want to do scenics anymore User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show. so idk why I hold onto them. Like you said, its a "just in case" thing I suppose.

EDIT:
Here's a quick using both of them to make a spooky edgy avi, lol (in spoiler because its a tiny bit gory, so just incase anyone doesn't like that...)

As someone who makes cluttered halfatars on a regular basis, I have a long list of very weird items that I keep just in case they end up contributing the one pixel I need.

I started this white and red Christmas Tree User Imageusing User Image and it amuses me even if it's not particularly visible.
