My New Favorite Store


I have a new favorite store! I've talked about the Salvation Army in the past, but I've had really good luck there over the last month. In fact, it's quickly becoming my new favorite place to shop.

Over the last month, I've purchased about 15 pairs of shorts/capris for my family. (The picture below is from the second trip I made last week.)

Each pair of shorts was 1/2 off the ticketed price which was anywhere from $1.99 for kids and $3.99 up to $4.99 for adults. This particular shopping trip to the Salvation Army cost me roughly $17.00. Can you believe it? And the brand are great brands - J Crew, REI, Express, Old Navy and Nike.

I was particularly excited to find the REI cycling shorts with the padded bottom. They are brand new. I plan to turn them around and sell them on Craigslist for profit. I paid $2.50 for them. Good cycling shorts run anywhere from $40 and up.
