"My Sister's Closet" - A great find in Greenville!
I read a lot about you guys shopping at Goodwill in the Raleigh area, but our Goodwill here in Greenville has been very disappointing the times I've been there. BUT, I did find My Sister's Closet on 10th street in Greenville, near Hastings Ford. They are sort of like Goodwill but only for clothes, shoes, etc and the $$ goes to Domestic Violence victims.
I stopped by there on Friday and found 2 great jackets and a red Talbot's dress. All three items only cost me $17 with tax! I did stop them off at the cleaners since I'm not sure when they were cleaned last but it's still a great deal!
If you live or visit Greenville, check it out! All the items are priced very reasonably.
Oh, and yesterday I bought my first single digit, a size 8 pants suit! Unbelieveable!!!!
Ya'll have a wonderful week!!!

Alice, I just cannot wait to hunt down all the thrift stores in our area once the weight begins to fall off! I used to own a really nice children's resale store myself about 14 years ago. It was one of my favorite things I've ever done...I actually miss it! Anyway, it's been ages since I have done much second-hand shopping and now I am going to have the perfect excuse. I'll have to remember this place if ever in Greenville. What awesome deals you came away with...and the size 8 pantsuit?! ENJOY!!!
Hmmmm.... Maybe the next time we come down for a get in Feb or so, I'll have to see about making a run over there. Do they have men's clothes too, or is just ladies stuff? We'll be looking for new duds for Ben the next time we are able to join a Greenville group ;)
I'm always up for shoppin trip that has bargains involved. Thanks for the head's up.
BTW ... Isn't it just amazing to wear single digits? I would never have imagined it for myself.
Keep up the good work.

Hey Barb, I certainly thought of you when I was there on Friday... They only carry women's clothes now. It's not a huge space so they probably have to keep it limited. I was so excited about the REd Talbots dress that will be great for the holidays. Still can't believe I got it for $6!
I would NEVER have thought I'd ever be in single digits... I'm still wearing mostly 10s but that's ok too... I'm comfortable where I am, but it was still a great feeling to see that 8!
Take care, Alice
