Back To School Sale
One of our local thrift stores just had a wonderful back to school clothing sale to help with the cost of getting kids ready. They took up a special collection of clothing and then put it all out on tables for 99cents each. What a blessing for the community!! The place was packed, but since they had so much donated that there was plenty to go around. My girls loved being able to pick up anything they wanted without fear of me saying no because of cost! I hope they do this every year.

~That is fantastic! And they probably sold so much that they still managed to make a nice profit even with the lost cost per item. I wish more thrifts would do that!~
