Yesterday, I took my daughter, Mary, on a college visit. On the way there we passed a nice looking thrift store in a small town. Mary has needed shirts for quite a while. We decided to make a stop. We shop at thrift stores and garage sales first when we need clothes. It is economical but most of all it helps the environment. We are reusing items that might otherwise end up in the landfill. It also saves all the resources needed to manufacture new clothing. Mary is an average size so has luck finding things there. I am larger so have a harder time finding clothes for me there. Mary has even found 2 of her prom dresses at thrift stores. If you have not looked in your local thrift store lately try it sometime. You have to be patient and look through the clothes but Mary is well dressed and her friends have no clue where her clothing comes from by looking at it. .
