    Talking my new 7.00 wardrobe

    Every 1,2,and3rd of the month, a consignment shop in my town has the stuff your bag sale. Well, I made out like a bandit
    2 nice dresses
    too many shirts&blouses to count
    a couple of skirts
    A nice name brand pair of jeans( i could care less about brands but knowing I did'nt pay $80.00,WOO HOO)
    a jacket for ds # 2
    Name brand baby clothes for sis-n-law
    a couple of shirts for ds
    there is more but Iam drawing blanks
    I could have stuffed my bag even more but I felt a little greedy, as some of the other shoppers just had a few items! Iam such a piggy
    Was this bad thriftshopping eticete(sp?)

    Hey, LOL, it's a stuff your bag sale ain't it? Let everyone else worry about their own bags! Kidding aside though, I do know how you feel, and it looks like you done good!

    I miss living so close to Hinesville where our consignment shop is located. I stop in there every three months though when I go for my routine Dr. visits and I always find bargains.

    Way to go, you got a lot of great stuff! We used to have a shop that did that but sadly they closed. Guess there's not too many thrifty people here in Key West..

    I doubt that was being gready. Maybe those other ladies are just super picky, or can never find anything they like. I am like that. It's just hard for me to find clothes that I like.
    You go girl!

    When they say "stuff it" baby, I stuff it! I'll stretch that bag til there's holes coming through it. I got no problem with that whatsoever! Good deals!
