[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Still, buying chidlren used clothing from a thrift shop, that is for people on welfare and foodstamps.  I actually think if you are shopping for kids clothes at thrift shops and you are not truly poor, what you are doing is kind of morally wrong.  There are people who really need those items and you are buying it instead just to be "thrifty".

Wow - that is unbelievable.  Thrift stores are not like food stamps where you have to qualify with a certain lower income in order to participate.  The funds used for thrift store purchases help the community, the items purchased help the environment, and if I am able to afford any clothing I want but instead buy items for $1/each and instead am able to fully fund my kids' college education, they are in designer, well-maintained clothes, and I will ultimately be able to leave them tons of money when I die...which do you think is a wiser choice.  Oh wait - I don't really want YOUR opinion on it.  I want the opinion of someone who is more money-savvy.[/quote]
