Goodwill Stores
People sometimes don't realize that Goodwill stores are open for everyone to shop at. They not only have used and new clothes but they have really cool household items too… perfect for the college student just getting out on their own. Not only do they have cheap items, but the nearly 83% revenues they make are used to fund education and career services and other community programs.
The Salvation Army
The Salvation Army is similar to Goodwill, not only do they provide cheap clothes and household items; they are also helping out the community by donating revenues to help the unfortunate.
Local Thrift Stores
What an awesome place to find really nice and expensive clothing. Most of the clothing these stores carry are brand new, with the tags still on the garment! Many thrift stores have really good sales. A local thrift store in my area have what is called a “Grab Bag Event” where you are given a shopping bag and you can put as many clearance items as possible into the bag for a certain amount, usually about $10.00. What a deal!
Garage Sales
You know the old saying, “Other peoples garbage is your treasure.” Spring cleaning means spring shopping! Check out your classified section and find as many garage sales as possible, you're bound to find some unique treasures. Happy shopping!
