LeeAnn's BlogMy Thoughts and Interests March 02 Goodwill ShoppingThis past year I have had amazing luck haunting secondhand shops. I've met some friends who are master shoppers and we've shared our favorite locations with one another. We have even gone on a few shopping adventures together! Saturday I was alone and I found incredible bargains, along with gifts for family members. A suitcase, clothes & books! Found a silk jacket dress in royal blue - $4.99! Never worn! My friends have much better success in finding bargains than I do, but it really is an adventure.
We were talking today that back in the 1970's when shops first opened that people looked down on you if you purchased items from secondhand stores. Saturday there was no spaces available in the parking lot. On a Saturday! It is getting much more difficult to find bargains. One of our shops is a free store. One can find incredible clothes there. People in our area are generous to this shoppe. But, people from away have found it too. They come in and take items. Then resell them in their own shops out-of-state. This is disappointing. Where this shop is free and we are not needy, our personal promise is that what we take, we donate items in equal or more value to this store. It is only fair.
This spring I am going to have to weed out my clothes and belongings and donate them to my favorite haunts. This will be a job..... Must make room for the bargains!
