[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]PP here:  thrift store hobbyist.  This may make your collective heads spin (esp. you who think thrift stores are only poor people clothing stores)...I buy beautiful, NWT or gently used baby clothes and [b]DONATE them to a local clothes charity/mission that serves local people in need. [/b]

There are some people for whom a thrift store is cost prohibitive, more likely, they are working and do not have time to thrift shop.  I do it for them.

I just love to shop.  I also bargain hunt for clearance items throughout the year and make special seasonal donations.  Win-win.[/quote]

That's a wonderful thing to do.

It's interesting; I wonder if most of you who go to thrift stores generally love shopping, and those who don't (like me) hate shopping and don't want to waste any more time than necessary. I'd rather pay more than spend the time hunting through a bunch of crap to get the gem. I feel the same way about TJ Max-type stores. I'm sure there are some great bargains, but I don't want to spend my time trying to find them. If I loved shopping, on the other hand, I could see devoting more time and buying stuff in a larger variety of places to maximize the great finds....[/quote]
