    Default Another good deal from Goodwill

    Yesterday my SIL took my youngest to Goodwill for what she calls "seasonal shopping trip"... We got my youngest DD enough dresses, shirts, pants, skirts, and summer clothes for her to start kindergarten with... We bought about 67 pieces of clothing for about 115.00... Mind you if each piece cost at least 10.00 (there were some name brands in there ie Sketcher jeans, Old Navy), that would have been almost 670.00 retail I am soo happy... Now all I have to get her are some shoes, socks, underwear and a good winter coat. Just thought I would share.

    WOW You got lucky, I don't normally find that many things at one time worth buying. My kids have primarily second hand but it's bought a few things at a time and at a dozen different stores.

    That is just awesome!!! I have never understood buying a bunch of "new" clothes for school when you can get such good deals at yard sales, Goodwill etc. Congrats on the great buys.

    That's a great deal. You just got to love Goodwill. I've managed to get my DH on board shopping there. Next weekend, they are having the 1/2 sale and we will all be going.
