They are especially great for kids' clothes, toys, housewares, pj's(my attire of choice when I'm home), and books.<br /><br />When I visit other cities, I like to check out the local thrift stores. All Goodwills are not the same. I was recently in one(Tallahassee) that I didn't care for at all.<br /><br />Anyway, I just went thrift store shopping this morning and scored:<br />.

As is, I don't think we have any thrift stores in the area (yay, small town Texas).<br /><br />I also wanted to let you know that I tagged you in the book tagging meme. It's my first post! It's a way for book bloggers to connect and get to know one another. I hope you'll participate.

If you have any books, DVDs, video games or CDs that you no longer want and are still in decent condition, you add them to your "have list" by entering the ISBN or CPU codes. You will also have a "want" list where you can put any item (books,DVDs,CDs,video games) that you want on it. Then the site finds possible trades for you. If you have a book that someone wants and they have a book that you want, you agree to a trade. Then you are both given each other's addresses and send each other the item. It's free to use, you only pay shipping. Most books cost about $3.61 to ship. I have been doing it for about two years now and love it. If you decide to join and need help or have any questions, feel free to ask me :)Tiffany Drewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00299961211173649300noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8369190740464760042.post-35297583904108088942012-03-05T17:06:37.033-05:002012-03-05T17:06:37.033-05:00Wowzers!
