TALK ABOUT NEAT!!!
YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT YOU'LL FIND AT A THRIFT STORE. IT'S LIKE AN ADVENTURE.
SOMETIMES YOU REALLY HAVE TO LOOK TO FIND A GREAT DEAL.
OTHER TIMES IT MIGHT BE RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOUR FACE.
SEVERAL YEARS AGO I WAS AT A THRIFT STORE IN SOUTH FLORIDA AND GOT A PAIR OF RALPH LAUREN SHORTS FOR A QUARTER. WHAT A DEAL! IF I HAD GONE TO A DEPARTMENT STORE THE SAME PAIR OF SHORTS WOULD HAVE COST ME A SMALL FORTUNE. I DON'T NORMALLY BUY NAME BRAND CLOTHING, BUT FOR A QUARTER YOU BET I WOULD.
TWO YEARS AGO I WANTED A PAIR OF BOOTS. NOTHING FANCY, JUST A PAIR OF EVERYDAY BOOTS.
I WAS SO AFRAID THAT I WOULD HAVE TO PAY GOOD MONEY FOR THEM AND THEN OUT OF THE BLUE I WALKED IN TO THE LOCAL THRIFT STORE AND SAW SOME FOR $1. CAN YOU BELIEVE IT! A DOLLAR. I LOVE IT!!
JUST YESTERDAY MY DAD GOT TWO LOVE SEATS FOR $30. NATURALLY THEY WEREN'T NEW, BUT COMPARED TO WHAT WE HAD THEY LOOK PRETTY GOOD. WE REALLY NEEDED A NEW COUCH, BUT THOUGHT IT WOULD COST A PRETTY PENNY. DAD HAD SEEN THESE LOVE SEATS THE DAY BEFORE FOR $40. WHEN HE WENT BACK YESTERDAY THEY WERE MARKED DOWN TO 30. JUST GOES TO SHOW YOU HOW ONE MAN'S TRASH CAN BE ANOTHER MAN'S TREASURE.
I'VE BEEN FINDING BARGAINS LIKE THIS FOR YEARS. SOME HAVE BEEN DUDS, BUT THAT HAPPENS. DON'T LET IT DISCOURAGE YOU. UNFORTUNATELY, NOT EVERY CLOUD HAS A SILVER LINING. THERE ARE GOING TO BE DISAPPOINTMENTS. THE THING IS TO LEARN FROM EVERY MISTAKE AND USE YOUR COMMON SENSE.
