Yesterday I showed a friend how I shop at thrift stores. Typically, I only go to one store - but my friend wanted to cover practically all the thrift stores in Birmingham so we went to five - plus an outlet mall. We started at 10 am at
Lovelady, and luckily I had one $40 for $20 Groupon voucher - so that's where I bought the most items and only went over by $3.00 (even bought two jackets for my son). I managed to purchase one item from
Mission Possible and
Salvation Army, nothing from
Goodwill, (had lunch) and made the last stop
The Foundry where I bought three items. My friend only found a couple items at
Lovelady and
The Foundry - but I was very surprised of her stamina...I got home at 8 pm.
Here's my haul from the marathon thrift-shop-a-thon...
1 Fall Coat
1 Necklace
1 Pair Crop Pants
1 Top (sleeveless)
2 Purses
2 Jackets for my son (one leather)
5 Pairs of Shoes
