I am surprised at the good things that I find there.
It is fun to come home with a great outfit that is a great buy.
I pay for a top, $2 dollars, pants for $3 dollars.
Some have not even been worn.
Ladies keep giving the thrift stores your good clothes.........

I am sick of seeing "accordian pants" It is soooo easy to do.
It's like everything, 'You have to want to!!'
When i was a little girl , my dad gave me an old sewing machine that was hand operated. On that i learnt to sew . My mother taught me . She sewed all our clothes, knitted all our pullovers and socks. We had no money for bought things. But we always dressed well.
I feel its a shame that kids dont learn this anymore in school . For us it was compulsory, along with cookery. I believe now a days with so many people unemployed and little skills its harder for people to survive on little money. We lived well on little money , because we Grey vegetables , fruit, Made jams and preserves. Keeping chooks for eggs, sewing and knitting clothes ourselves . We had plenty of money for a good holiday every year.
We had no time to watch tv. We went fishing , fossicked for mushrooms ,
When i was in Romania a couple of years ago i saw people living like this still, as we used to live fifty years ago in my country.
My parents had a lot of very useful knowledge gained from having to survive the depression.
One of them was sewing.
Nowadays children only seem to want to use computers.
And here we are on computers debating it.
