God Bless The Salvation Army

I’m not too proud to say my favorite place to shop for women’s clothes is The Salvation Army Thrift Store. I usually go on the last Friday of the month because this is when they mark down the price even more, to get ready for the next month.

I know exactly what I’m looking for before I walk in the store, name brand clothes only. The staff really works hard coordinating all colors, short sleeve, long sleeve, pants, dresses, summer and winter items. Most of the stuff I don’t even have to look at, I’ve been doing this so long I can spot a good item when I’m walking in the door. I never waste my time with junk, only the good stuff for me.

The following is a few of the items I’ve purchased within the past three months: Tommy Hilfiger shirts and jeans, Liz Claiborne dress pants and dresses, Talbot’s dresses, Aeropostale shirts, Victoria Secrets shirts and too much more to mention. All these items were in excellent condition and just needed washed or cleaned. Some of the items still had the price tags attached. Most women will buy something they “just have to have” wear it one time and wonder “what was I thinking?” In the past 2 years I’ve lost over 100lbs and it is great getting these name brand clothes that I could never wear before, at such a great price. I’ve not paid over $5.00 for anything! Of course, there have been times that I couldn’t find anything, but that only builds the anticipation for the next visit.

The store has a huge variety of customer, most of them looking for a bargain just like me. The best thing is…..there’s always a sale, a huge variety of brands and you can always “make a deal”.
