I tried a thrift store first, but came up dry. I will wear them with a top I already have and shoes I already have. I don’t get dressed up very often, so my current pants are basically just jeans, leggings, and scrub pants. Then I went to T.J. Maxx and found a pair for $14.99.

While I like to shop at thrift stores, I have a hard time finding TALL length jeans for my 5’10 frame and I was in need of new jeans. At first, I thought my eyes were deceiving me, so I marched right into the DSW to see what shoes I could find around $49. I found a really cute pair of TOMS shoes marked down to $49.99.

I stopped by my two favorite thrift stores last week: Salvation Army & Community Aid, a local store. Finally, spring has arrived in central PA, so I carved out some time last Wednesday to hit the thrift stores. By far the best find of the day was the pair of Keen shoes (in the above picture) for my oldest daughter.

If the stigma of thrifting gets to you, remember, it’s not “used”, it’s “vintage”. To set up a swap, gather a group of friends and have them bring anything they want out of their closet-dresses, t-shirts, shoes, accessories, whatever. Pair those discount price tags with a coupon or sale to get the most bang for your buck. Go Frugal'

Another less than 5 dollar vintage piece… And now for the shoes. It was mostly about the shoes. And I need new jeans (I promise, I am going to get to the shoes!). Because we are broke, I’ve been trying on jeans at thrift stores, Ross, and second hand stores. Because shoes pretty much always fit. That’s a long time.
