My current finances make it so that getting rid of anything is considered a financial loss. I put everything in the cabinets and tape them shut. I sell the cabinets to Chabad using their online form, and make a donation.
Even a half a box of pasta can mean the difference between having a meal or not. My budget is THAT tight.

Are there any Chassidishe people who follow a Rebbe, or Litvishe people with Kollel background who follow a Litvish Posek, among those who chose "I sell it with the Chometz"?

We only sell things that are expensive or questionable if they really are chometz. The nice non Jewish ladies at the municipal food pantry were very happy to take the bag of pasta and cracker boxes that I dropped off today.

We do not leave any chametz gamur in the house. I donate or give away closed packages. I throw out any open packakages I still have. It doesn't add up to much. This includes expensive scotch too.

I ended up not keeping any Chometz Gamur.
I m just wondering if there are any Chassidishe people who follow a Rebbe, or Litvishe people with Kollel background who follow a Litvish Posek, among those who sell Chometz Gamur (pasta, etc).

Do you know which Rov's Psak they go by? Or is this possibly an individual Psak because these people cant afford the financial loss and the Rov/Rebbe gives a different Psak for others?

We are litvish, my dh learned in kollel, his father learned in kollel also, and we sell chamutz. That's my husband's family's minhag, they only sell unopened packages. We haven't asked a rav, we rely on the fact that it's the family minhag.

I seldom have much left because I quit stocking up well ahead of time and if necessary, eat pasta for breakfast to finish up the open package. I give closed packages, should we have any, to the local food pantry before they sell their chometz. In the week or two before Pesach we’re usually eating mostly kitniyot. It’s all a matter of planning ahead and breaking free of useless prejudices like thinking that breakfast means cereal and pasta means supper.

I grew up Chabad and never heard of there being a problem selling anything.

The first time I learned that people DON’T sell chometz gamur was when I got married.
My parents have chassidish leanings and follow a chassidish rebbe . My father learned/ learns in a Litvish kollel .
Same goes for my relatives .

Which chassidish rebbe and which Litvish kollel tell their followers to sell any Chametz Gamur? DH would love to know, because he didnt think it exists.

Don't throw out good food!! There are many people that can use it.
We don't sell chametz gamur so I listed a box of free food (pasta, cereal, oatmeal, infant oatmeal and some other random items) on craigslist and someone came to pick it up. I actually had 9 responses before I got a chance to delete my listing!

I gave away beer to my coworkers, cookies to a non-Jewish friend, baby cereal to mothers at the baby meet-up and pasta to a food sharing initiative. Basically the week before pesach, I go around giving food to people Most chametz we eat starting Purim. I hate throwing out food. I was raised not to waste, even if I could afford it. I usually get rid of everything and sell only what I discover last minute when there is no more time.

Im still looking for names. My relatives think its mostly Mod Orthodox people or people with very limited funds who sell their Chametz Gamur. I havent heard a single Chassidish or Litvish Posek's (who allows it) name.
Has anyone heard any Rebbes or Litvish Rabbonim talk about selling Chametz Gamur in their Shabbos Hagadol Drashas, or write it in their Sforim?
If yes, can someone name them and what they said please.
