Years ago, Mom introduced me to the idea of going to garage sales. People sell the darnedest things at their garage sales. Garage sales take time, you have to hit quite a few before you find the item you want or need. If you are in more of a hurry, find a thrift store instead. My best finds.

I drank some free tea Every week, we get a little bundle of sale ads in the mailbox. I tried a thrift store first, but came up dry. Luckily, they’re a pretty similar cut and you can’t really see them once I have my Vans on. ? God forbid I sit down in them! Then I went to T.J. Maxx and found a pair for $14.99.

I stopped by my two favorite thrift stores last week: Salvation Army & Community Aid, a local store. I only go on Wednesdays, because both stores offer an additional 50% off on almost everything. Finally, spring has arrived in central PA, so I carved out some time last Wednesday to hit the thrift stores.

Garage sales, estate sales, and moving sales are all great places to look for used furniture. You can also find truly interesting pieces at estate sales. There are usually plenty of used engagement rings for sale at reasonable prices. Are you too proud to buy used jewelry? Don’t be! What do you think?

So instead of heading to a retail store, I hit my favorite thrift store (on a Wednesday for their 50% off sale) to see if I would have any luck. With the 50% off sale, both items were each $2.50. Luck is definitely what I found! Brand new, size 3, girls snow boots and gently used black overall snow pants in size 6.

Thrift shopping is making a comeback and we are loving it! That being said, in-person thrift stores aren’t always ideal. Some may not have a good thrift shop in their community, while others may prefer the convenience of shopping online. Oftentimes, you can make more on the sale than your originally spent!

Whenever I go into a furniture store I will immediately ask the sales associate what is the best price he/she could give me on whatever item I’m interested in. If they tell me it is not currently on sale, I will politely ask to speak with a manager and ask them the same questions. Learn to Negotiate Better Prices.
