How Have I Never Been To This Thrift Store???
So most of you guys know by now that I have a teensy tiny thrift shopping addiction. Ok just kidding. I am super addicted to thrifting. I think that about half to three-quarters of my wardrobe is now comprised of thrifted clothing and I am still working hard at my ebay store. Yesterday, my grandma texted me and said that she was driving by a thrift store in town called Teen Challenge Thrift Store and they had a sign in the window that said Dollar Sale. I got excited and of course had to go and check it out. I had never been to the Teen Challenge Thrift Store which helps a local Women's Ministry raise money, but I had driven past on my way to other thrift stores in town. So when I got to the store, it turns out that there wasn't a Dollar Sale that day, but a $5 Bag Sale. I asked the girl at the counter to explain to me how the sale worked and she basically told me that I could fill a brown paper bag with as many items as I could, with some exclusions. I was stoked! I made my way through the store and it was very clean and organized, which made me happy. I ended up with 15 items in my bag for $5 which meant that I got each item for about 33 cents! I also found some neat pins for my denim jacket that I am decorating, so I ended up spending just $6. Needless to say, I will definitely be going back to see what more I can find in the future!
I believe that my mom and I, and maybe my sister if we can convince her to go, are going to make a trip to the Goodwill Outlet this weekend, which is my new-found favorite thrift store, so that is very exciting for my little thrifting heart! I think it would be fun for me to share with you guys my favorite thrift finds that I have, so I will probably do a post soon with pictures of pieces and outfits that I have thrifted and love! Stay tuned for more posts! ~Em
