I loved shopping for kids t-shirts --- they were only 99 cents! Plus, living in a college town, I received an additional discount with my student ID. You could easily find a blend of upscale clothes, clubbing clothes, and every day wear, given the mixed population here in Orlando. I haven't been in ages but I certainly need to go!

I even refer to the local Goodwill as 'The French Room'...one of my favorite places to shop for my kids. Seriously! Clothes that have been washed already are so much easier to judge for correct fit! And brand new things do have a place but not outside to play or for art class at Kindergarden, ya know? Great article!! Oh this is SO me!

I'm a HUGE thrifter, from thrift stores to yardsales & estate sales, the bargains are out there just waiting to be found. It might as well be found by ME! Now you’re speaking my language too!

You'll only be dissapointed that way. But if you go in with a fun, adventurous attitude and patiently look through everything you can come out with some real gems. Years ago I picked up a full-length London Fog wool coat for $25. I loved that coat. Only thing wrong with it - It was missing a button on the front. No problem since there was a replacement sewn into the inside by the manufacturer! You can’t walk into these stores expecting to find something great. You’ll only be dissapointed that way.

It's my lifeline. Let's see...just last week I scored an awesome $2 Anne Taylor little black dress for Blissdom, but that's just the tip of the iceburg. I can't begin to name them all. :) Oh, what would we do with out thrifting? It’s my lifeline.
