[...] Some of you may be like Jillian and I…eyes glazed over thinking “Ahhhh thrifting”. However you feel at the moment, there is little denying that thrifting is a great way to save money and it is good for the environment too. … For those of you nose crinklers…what do the names Gap, Guess, Ann Taylor, Tommy Hilfiger, Apostrophe, Alfani, Charter Club, Chaus, Jones New York, DKNY, and Calvin Klein (to name a few) make you think of. I know where you are. You’re in the mall. …Page 2 [...]

Thanks Lacy! Jillian and I will need to trek out there soon. The Yard Area sounds like a treasure hunt right up our alley. Yea! I love learning about new spots!

I love Thrift Town! But recently I discovered Desert Industries it’s a little drive, it’s located on Watt and Auburn Blvd. I always find great items. Also, they have a “Yard Area” which is just junk they don’t know what to do with…thats my favorite area

I know Stephanie!!!! Jillian and I have never left there empty handed! Try Thrift Town too if you haven’t been before. On Wednesday for Veteran’s Day they are having a sale 30% off all clothing! They also do Monday night football nights from 6-8 PM and have 30% off all clothing as well.

I love Eco thrift! Everytime I go in I find another deal. My Anne Taylor coat that had the Macy’s tags on it for $350 and I paid $25. Worth every penny!!

Cool cost saving ideas. How about an article on buying holiday gifts for others at thrift stores.

Hello Rancho Cordova! Due to the fact that this was not posted until Monday instead of Friday Conscious Christmas will begin tomorrow instead of today. We will still do a post a day however. Thrifting 101 briefly went up on Friday, but came down to make room for all of the wonderful coverage on the State of the City event. Thank you to all the people at the post that made that happen. The coverage was great!!!!! It really was the next best thing to being there myself.
