Multitasking: Goodwill 50% off sale this Saturday, donate old stuff, get some fresh trends!
I know, I know, I’m a thrifting maven…an addict, obsessive almost. If I don’t get to my thrift store on a very regular basis, I start to suffer withdrawals. I also realize there are many people who share the same passion, and of course there are people who don’t. That’s fine, more for me!
So here’s an idea for an inexpensive and fun thing to do this Saturday with your girlfriends, children, family, etc. (since the forecast is calling for rain), Go shopping!
Set a goal and see what the regular price of an item you’ve been wanting is, and then go search for it at the thrift store. (goodwill link on the thriftstore words). Go early to find the most new goodies!. Find your item, or something similar, and purchase. Then, go have lunch with the money you saved!
You can turn this into a scavenger hunt for your kids and have them go search for things. It’s a fun, inexpensive wayto occupy them!
You could even take your grandmother and look at the old china and books. I know my grandmother has so much fun doing this and it’s perfect for older people since they are often on a limited income.
Did you know items are fully rotated through Goodwill every four weeks? And they often come in and out much faster than that, so it is good idea to come often.
How could you not love thrifting?
