I ♥ Thrift Stores!
>> Friday, August 28, 2009
There..I said it! Like a deep dark secret that I have been hiding. I adore thrift stores! I like to wander up and down the isles, looking for a treasure.
I like to sift through the bins of purses...looking for my next great find.
I enjoy the rush of buying handfuls of pants, or shirts, or jackets..or whatever else I find, for my ever growing boys and never reaching my $20 limit.
When I need a little retail therapy, I head to the nearest good-will and see what I can find.
I never share my treasures. I only shop for myself or my boys. Some things are just not worth sharing.
Best of all, I can't help but smile (to myself), when people fawn all over something I'm wearing or using -that is second hand. Why? Because, some of my most prized pieces, the things that people continue to talk about are some of my greatest thrift store finds. All of which, most NEVER know (that they are from a thrift store)!
P.S. Jo-that ♥ (in my post title) was JUST.FOR.YOU.

I am such a thrift store shopper. seriously, I LOVE it!
I heart thrift stores too!! I just got my fix yesterday and got some great stuff.
You only have a small handful of purses, right? :)
Awwww, you love me. Ahem. Thanks. I think. I love thrift stores too! So much fun to wander and look. I miss DI when it was really cheap. Now, they are pricey, what do you think?
I love Goodwill too! I always forget to shop on half off Saturdays but that's when you can really make a killing! All of my son's tshirts are from Goodwill and both of the kids shop there on their own on a regular basis.
Geez, I really did get behind without the feed update. Come pull me by the hand if I get behind again. I know it takes google a couple days to start pulling new subs through.
I wish I was patient enough to find treasures often but I'm not. Maybe I just need the right partner to go with!
