Your good with the sales. WOW. Congrats.

What helped was that the store is a ‘job lot’ store that gets truck lots of ‘last years’ designs and such - and top brand clothes like L.L.Bean, Woolrich, etc. Much better than WalMart. ;o)

And household goods, etc. Sheets and dishes and glasses etc don't really go out of style.

On another note, I just got myself a brand new pair of UGGS shoes with sheepskin linings for winter, for $15, in a thrift store. (They would otherwise cost over $100)

In another thrift store, that gave seniors 50% off on Tuesdays - I call it “old ladies Day” - over a two year period, I got over a dozen pair of top brand leather shoes - for 95 cents; 3 London Fog vintage coats (two for my granddaughters) 2 for $4.50, one for $7.98) - a long, camel colored wool/alpaca blend coat - new, listed for $750.00. I got it for $4.50, a car-coat length suede leather coat, with hood, mouton lined - $4.50 (It's SUPER for snowshoeing treks) - all looked brand new...etc etc.

It’s mostly scouting out the places and ‘cruising through a couple times a month, because unlike WalMart, Sears, etc, you never know what you'll find. ‘Just depends on
what ‘job lot’ deals they find or what people bring in.

It would have been nice had they mentioned that fact. Did you go back later?

No, haven't had time yet. Not sure if I want to brave it on a Saturday either!
