Can I list all the thrift stores separately?

- Thrift stores: St. Vincents de Paul, Deseret Industries, Idaho Youth Rach, Woman & Children's Alliance, & The Assistance League. We don't have a very good Goodwill or Salvation Army store. Those aren't very well run.

- Winco, grocery store

- The produce stand in downtown. It is called Mrs. Reggie's Veggies.

- Kings. It is an old 5 and dime. Sometimes they have really great deals and stuff you can't find anywhere else.

- Almost any small town hardware store. I have a tender spot in my heart for old hardware stores with wood floors and tall overstuffed shelves.

- Fred Meyer for one-stop shopping.

- On-line. I love shopping in my jammies.

- Bookstores. I love scouring the discount racks for great gifts.

Walmart
Kmart
Target
Savermart-thrift store. Went yesterday and got the kids three pairs of jeans (excellent condition and good name brand) for $14.00 total!
Salvation Army-I havent been there in years, but that is where I use to get all my business style, name brand clothes for work.
Robb's-I can get anything from food to furniture super cheap. Suppose to be like products that were maybe dented or scratched (like train wreck items), but I have always got perfect items there, nothing that is expired or anything like that. Really cheap; Campbells soup (the ones you drink out the the container) .65 each, priced them out at $3.00 at the store and Boudreaux's butt paste got it for $1.10, priced out at Walmart for $4.50.
