Consignment stores
« on: September 20, 2009, 07:34:00 am »
I found most of what I bought for this past summer at a thrift/comsignment store. It cost me less than $20 for everything I bought. Can't beat that. :)

I like going to consignment stores, yard sales, flea markets, etc.

I don't like buying people's used stuff

It depends on what it is.  Of course you shouldn't buy undergarments and things like that, but whats wrong with buying a nice lamp or something?

Some of the things you need that you know you are only going to need for a while, especially baby things like a walker are good to look for at these places.  You'd be surprised what you can find and its a way to get out of the house for a while.

I have been shopping these places for years.  I used to come home with all sorts of stuff.  Now not so much and I am the one who needs to have a yard sale.  Its good for kids stuff, they grow out of clothes and their toys so fast.  When my daughter was in Kindergarten I bought a large set of phonic type learning game/books/set. 
I paid a dollar for the whole thing and we worked with it for over a year and it was a great help. Best buck I ever spent.  Also good when you are not sure about something and you otherwise would not spent the money on. This way you can try it for next to nothing.

I work at a fabric/consignment place, and we get great business doing consignment. I don't mind buying consignment clothes, but it also depends on the item itself. Like the above poster said, it depends on what you're buying. Obviously, I would not buy used undergarments  :bootyshake:! LOL

I love consignment stores.  I find the best deals and that is how I buy a lot of the name brand clothes for my son and myself.  It is a whole lot cheaper. ;D
