Thrift Shops – Love ‘Em!

Everyone’s familiar with yard sales, but have you checked out a thrift store lately? There are great bargains to be found and there’s always a new supply of goodies!

 This just goes to show you the value of a great bargain!
Probably the best sellers are children’s clothing items. You can probably find jeans for a dollar or a blouse for half that. Often the items are like new, maybe received as a gift and never worn. You might have to hunt a bit for proper sizes, but that’s half the fun.

A lot of my friend’s heads nodding in approval when I said that looking for the best buys in ukay-ukay is a great adventure.

In a country where the prices of gasoline, flour, oil, diapers, milk and other basic needs are skyrocketing, an average Pinoy is left with only a few pesos in the pocket to buy for basic things for himself like shoes, bags and clothing.
