I think Lafayette has a Steinmart, so I'll have to check it out sometime. I've not heard of a Ross Dress before.

I love thrift shops! We don't have a Goodwill, but there are 3 great thrift shops in Margaretville, and our library has one in my town of Roxbury. There is a Core Value that everybody goes to nearby and a very fancy "consignment" shop in Woodstock. I have a couple of things to bring over there and pick up a few dollars.

We all go to the thrift shops around here. I love that nobody is in the least bit embarrassed about it! Actually, a lot of people here have plenty of money, but shop there anyway.

Janet I went to Steinmart today had a 20 % coupon on one item. I ended up buying a few tops that were half price got them for 15.00 each and a cute jacket that was on sale to for the same price so for 45 dollars I did pretty well. :)

You did great Gina!! I may have enough clothes to get me through the winter. I would really like to start saving up for some flooring now. Not sure if I'll be able to do it or not, but gonna try.

What kind of floor are you looking to get, Janet?

I went to Core Value Thrift Shop yesterday and bought a nice picture frame and a Melitta coffeemaker. I'll run some vinegar through it and it will be just fine.

Then today, I went for a ride to a salvage place. Got a couple of solar leds for $2 each, and some stuff to stick my plants in when I start filling up the vases.

I'm not sure, but probably not carpet. That's going to be awhile too...lol. I sure wish I had enough money to do what I needed to do and then a little extra do get what I want...lol.

I don't think that we have a Steinmart around here either. I like to go to Cato's and I also like Dress Barn. They both carry plus size clothes. Catherine's is a favorite but it's pretty expensive unless you hit a sale and have a coupon.

Judy, I like to shop those kind of stores too. We just don't have any good ones near us. I guess that's why I go to the garage sales.

Janet, I think that we all feel like that!!!

I know Diana. I don't want to seem greedy at times, but I get this disease I call the 'wants'. lol.

I also have a hard time deciding which is a 'want' and which is a 'need'.

Defining "wants" from "needs" is hours of your life that you will never get back again!


Just assume that you "need" everything! Then see what you can afford, and take it from there. You'll come out exactly the same way!;)
