Default Re: Thrift Stores!!!

I agree that the prices are getting outragious! I usually go for vhs Movies for my kids. I was noticing last week that @ goodwill the .99 bins are no $1.49! The videos (the disney ones in particular) were up to $5! That's up $1 since I bought some in November.

I agree w/ pp's saying that they get the stuff for FREE so why are the prices getting outragious?!?!? I'd rather go rummaging for things than pay their prices! I bought a Like-NEW disney princess jacket for my oldest for $1 @ a rummage. Do you think I could find that @ goodwill?
I also hit up the clearence racks @ k-mart this fall for kids clothes. I was finding things for 90+% off!! My dh was a bit annoyed about me wanting to go to all the ones in the area. But when he saw that I got hundreds of $ of clothing for next to nothing, he didn't compalin. For example I got a pair of 12 mo LEVI's shorts for my nb, reg $11 for .50! I paid under a $1 for everything I bought. So I paid Rummage sale prices for brand new things! GOSH I LOVE K-MARTS CLEARENCE BLOW OUTS! Do ya think I can find any deals like that@ goodwill NOPE!

BTW mine has been having bins of misc things .25 ea & most of it seems to be things from the Target dollar bins!
