Thrifty Chicks!

New frugal discovery to share - are you ready???? Thrifting! I've been to thrift stores before, but never thought before about going on a regular basis to find items I'd normally buy elsewhere. The Thrifty Chicks have a great blog that explains it. To make it even better, thrifting is environmentally friendly! Love it!

The blog inspired me to go thrifting today while DS was in preschool. I left with a pair of like new black flat shoes for my sister for $3.00, (she's been making me look with her for an affordable pair for at least a month now) an adorable little flatware tray that I'm going to repaint and repurpose for $2.50, and a super cute jean newborn dress from Baby Gap for $1.50. Nothing really fancy, but I'm pretty pleased. I'm going to try thrifting for a while and promise to share my finds.
