Thrift Store Shopping

I find it funny when people turn up their noses at thrift store shopping.  I think some of my best items, I have found shopping at the thrift store.  Unfortuately, a lot of times, I can’t find clothes for myself since I am a bigger girl but, I always find stuff for the kids.  Kids grow so fast, it just seems ridculous to pay so much for the items they are going to use. 

I got every Wednesday to a thrift store here where I live.  I love it there.  I have pretty much gotten all of Brynlee’s clothes for summer.  For the most part, the boys don't really need anything except for a few pairs of shorts.  I am hoping that the closer it gets to “spring cleaning” time, the more people will be getting rid of.

yesterday, I went to my favorite store, and here is one thing that I scored for Brynlee:

P3180608

That’s right, a pair of actual brand name Crocs.  They were barely worn.  I brought them home…washed them and use a Magic Eraser on them..and now they look BRAND NEW.  For this item I paid….$1.  One dollar for an item I am pretty sure it close to $20 brand new.
