Goodwill store
Ever since Treading mentioned her visit to the goodwill store to buy clothing in smaller sizes, I had been wanting to check it out for the same reason. I didn't find any clothing, but I DID find some smaller plates!
When I read the book Mindless Eating, I realized that the plates we use every day are HUGE, which leads to overeating. I got rid of the huge plates, and bought smaller plates. Now that I've had my surgery, I was thinking even smaller plates were in order (just for myself.) I bought four of them and spent a dollar total!
I think they were the saucers for teacups, because they don't look like they've been used at all. They also had some really pretty china pattern, but it was a little too prissy for my personality. :lol:
Has anybody else ever found any good goodwill bargains?

Hey C,
I'm sorry you didn't find any clothes. The Concord Goodwill is very well organized. I had to pick thru but I managed to find several nice items. I wasn't really able to come up with matched sets though. I figure I'll just pop in at every chance and grab what I like. Everything i bought was 4.99 or less. Works for me. Treading

I have never had the pateince to look through the racks. I think that's my problem. My mother was the thrift store queen, and I always HATED going with her!!
The Goodwill store in Londonderry looks like it has the clothing well organized by size, but every time I pulled something from the size 18 area, it ended up being a teeny tiny size 2 or something. Very frustrating!!!
I will definitely check back every few weeks though. I couodln't believe the books they had! It makes sense though- I mean, I usually drop off my new books as soon as I am done reading them.
