You have to go to the rich people’s Goodwill.
...
I bought $800 worth of practically new golf shirts and shorts for about 75 bucks
I bought a Jos. A Bank suit that might have been tailored for me for 20 bucks
The true find is Thrift World in Dallas. Bought tags on Apple Bottom jeans (to re-sell or frighten my daughters), Escada suit, plus 3 lovely trash bags replete with jeans, sweaters, golf shirts, designer slacks and a suede fringe jacket (Texas, duh) for $75. (I have 3 kids.)
All in one shopping leaves more time for Q.
A $180 shirt for $17.
One time I got three designer-name sport shirts and five pairs of pants for $26.
Where in Dallas? Near Preston Center? Theres a great one on Sherry Lane - The Clothes Circuit. Lots of Highland Park consignment clothes. Of course not quite as inexpensive as donated items, but really great bargains nevertheless. I shopped there all the time when I was working.
