There are bargains to be had at Goodwill and for years Bill and I checked them in the towns we went through on vacation.
I never had enough books, and he looked for tools.
A friend had 5 kids that she wanted to have proper manners, so she bought crystal goblets, and fancy dishes at goodwill, they didn’t match, but worked for her needs.
Time went by and the kids were grown and gone and she discovered that she had a house full of antiques, so she opened an antique shop......and sold her goodwill dishes.
She taught me how to buy antiques and what books that I needed to learn the different trade marks.
Twice I supported Bill when he got sick and could not work.
I once had a big sale and then a few years later, opened a small shop and sold off more of the stuff that I collected.
For your kids, next time you go to a college town, check the goodwill there, the college kids toss out more than they keep and we have bought excellent things at the Tempe Arizona goodwill.
Then I also wanted the bags of fabrics and yarns.
LOL, fond memories of shopping for a bargain.
You have taught your daughters a valuable lesson.
Ping to post 1152, Goodwill stores in Tempe are worth searching through.
The thrift stores on the west side weren’t much good, in my opinion. The folks over there are too cheap!
