Resale Deals and Steals

I know many people shop at thrift stores like Goodwill or

Salvation Army but sometimes you can find one that is run by volunteers and the prices are much cheaper. The local Lion's Club in our area runs a thrift store called the "Lions Den Resale Shop". The building is donated and the store is run by senior citizens who volunteer their time. Jeans cost only $1; shorts and tops are 50 cents; winter coats and jackets run from $1 to $3; Dresses are $1; purses are usually 25 to 50 cents; Shoes are $1 for adults while kids’ shoes 50 cents and kids’ clothing goes for 25 cents to 50 cents. As you can see, everything is dirt cheap! I buy things at the Lions Den cheaper than at garage sales. All of the money from the store goes into the community to support local charities, so it’s a win-win situation. Most people can't believe I get my clothes for so inexpensively. Another great way to get deals is when a church has a rummage sale — usually on the last day they’ll have really great discounts like, $2 for a bag of clothing or fill a bag with anything for a fixed price.
