Default Re: GoodWill is not frugal

There are four thrift stores I like to frequent - Resuce Mission, a woman's shelter, and two for retarded citizens (that's the name, I'm not trying to be un-PC here or anything). In the past couple of months I've gotten a pair of Ann Taylor casual pants, a pair of Old Navy pants, an Old Navy denim top and a trendy knit top for about $19. To me, that is a good deal. Like someone else said - these places are businesses. They have bottom lines. It isn't as cheap as a garage sale, but it's still a lot cheaper than shopping even the sale racks at most stores.
