something special, #29

my most favorite place to shop is our local thrift store that benefits the local humane society. it is the most happening shop in town. there are so many vacation rentals up here. and it seems that someone is either selling or downsizing weekly. that means a lot of really cool stuff ends up in the thrift store. my son and I go at least twice a week. we find all sorts of clothing, especially cold weather clothing for next to nothing, he rescues a stuffed animal weekly and gives it a better home than at the store and the most awesome household stuff!!
so, the "stuff" is repurposed at the store and not thrown in the dump, we are able to find all sorts of treasures for next to nothing, and our money helps a local charity that serves homeless animals.
to me that is a clear win win win.
we end up spending very little each month of all sorts of treasures!! and feel really good giving them our business!!
