Slim pickings at the thrift today, but I did manage to find some night clothes for my daughter, and a dress. The night gowns are a few sizes too big for her, but I 'll store them away for later.
I found a long ethnic print skirt which retailed for $41.00, and on another rack, a coordinating fitted jacket with wood beading. This makes a nice outfit for church(or everyday without the jacket), and it only cost me $9.00. I also purchased a long sleeved slinky black Chico's style top.
I spent $23.58 for six items including tax. Not too bad, but prices have gone up a bit.
About Me
- Alexandra
- A homeschooling mother of one teenager and a little. In 2001, I resigned from my 13 year position as a case manager to homeschool my oldest who was a preschooler at the time, and later a daughter who came along in 2005. This is by far the hardest job I've ever loved. My husband of nearly 20 years supports us as a fire fighter and EMT.

Thanks for commenting on my blog!! You use the liquid soap for toothpaste? is that even palatable? You are brave! lol
Dr. Bronner uses real peppermint, so it's not bad at all. I water down all his liquid soaps, so it's not over powering. I actually got the idea from someone's blog post about this, or it may have been on the Bronner's site.
I don't think I would have ever thought of this, much less tried it if I hadn't read about someone else using this as a toothpaste. It does sound pretty weird! lol
I do like a good find. When I go to England I run to the charity shops for good thrifts.
Not here, I'm afraid.
Well done!
