However, if folks can only afford to buy clothing there, like us, it makes it difficult!

I have all but stopped going in there and I will no longer donate to them. I'm donating to our Habitat restore instead because they actually keep thrifty prices so far. <br /><br />I love YOUR thrifty find, though. That would be about five times that cost at ours.<br /><br />(Ours chargers more for a used plastic charger than the new ones are at HL. )Debbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05671482394424988047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3850014921092515341.post-5665153925916757892012-03-29T20:41:51.753-07:002012-03-29T20:41:51.753-07:00How fabulous.How fabulous.Melodyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18439426900538969302noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3850014921092515341.post-59324660686517617392012-03-29T20:27:55.427-07:002012-03-29T20:27:55.427-07:00That is such a wonderful find!

I have two stores which price all dishes and glasses 49 cents a piece. Another one bundles the matching pieces, so you wind up with odd sets like 2 dinner plates, 5 salad plates and 3bowls. Some of the things are priced higher than Ross, and I just shake my head when I see the prices. But, I am glad to see you scored so well!Elainehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04896721595243003272noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3850014921092515341.post-50132868582042866232012-03-29T19:40:41.101-07:002012-03-29T19:40:41.101-07:00Wow, you did find a great deal on the Lenox mug.
