You have to know your prices. I sometimes look at the thrift store for certain things to make into craft items. Many times I have seen items there that I could get brand new at WalMart for less. You can't just assume it will be cheaper just because it is a thrift store.
We have in another town a VERY nice consignment shop that only takes good quality name brand clothing. I can find some very nice clothing there about the same price as WalMart but much better quality. Last trip I found my son a pair of khaki's that were name brand for $8. Not that we are into brand names but some I do know will wear well and not fall apart after a couple of washings.
