I used to buy all my clouths at the thrift shop in high school I have since gained weight and have trouble finding my size there now. I still would buy clothing there if I could find my size. I also think it is a great idea to buy baby clothing there because they wear that for about two months before they grow out of it and they have cute stuff.

Thrift store shopping is the best! I have found many treasures!
Three years ago, my camera was stolen from my vehicle, and a few weeks ago, I found MY CAMERA at a thrift store! Of course I bought it back!

yeah... do your have 50% off whatever colored tag they pick days? since we cant always make it on 50% off saturdays, during the weeks there's still a chance to get an extra discount too.

I love. I can get name brand clothes for cheap prices for my daughter and me. I usually don't get clothes there for my boys because they are so rough on their clothes and grow too quick (good and play clothes) that I find better bargins on the Walmart sale rack.

I love thrift stores. I need to make it to them more often!! It is certainly nice when you can find a great deal. Or find that unique something that you can fix up and turn it into a gem.

Thrift stores are great!! There are a few around where I live and we try to go everyonce in a while. Also the dollar store is a good place to find cheap stuff that you use everyday.

I don't think I could afford to love if it weren't for thrift stores. Plus I resell a lot of stuff on eBay and get double value. I'm really into stretching my dollars!

I used to buy a lot of thrift store stuff when I was growing up. Now that I've moved from my parents home town I can't seem to find a good thrift store. People aren't as affluent in the area where I lived now and therefore you find very few good things at bargain prices. It was fun while it lasted though.
