Janet, you know that a border collie will always select the best seat in the house!
So very very cute!
So very very cute!
And I've never bought underwear...
It is kind of wild what you can buy for so little compared to even sale prices at the discount stores, and the money all goes to charity.
When you see people lining up in droves to buy carloads of stuff at the mall and target and walmart and ikea, it's no surprise that the old stuff has to go somewhere. Most of us only have one house and they tend to fill up eventually!
A couple of weeks ago I snagged 4 pairs of the same sneaker for my brother. The store was having 1/2 off and they were $4/pair. For $16 he is set for a while. I think they were donations from a store.
I don't even care about getting a receipt or writing it off. I just want to dump it all off, and be done with it so I can hit the road.
My kid bought a nice pair of boots for $5 and they were brand new. The soles were a foam-like material that would quickly show wear if worn, but these were brand new looking.
I asked the workers at our thrift shop about some of the stuff and they confirmed they do get donations of brand new stuff from stores. We bought a battery powered 4 wheeler for $25 and it was one of those brand new items.
