[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There’s nothing bad about rich people getting clothes from goodwill or Salvation Army. It’s wise and great for the environment. Save the money for experiences and college rather than things. [/quote]

HA I had a really big argument with a friend about this once. There is absolutely something wrong with a rich person buying up everything at goodwill.[/quote]

I used to think that, however I think everyone should by from thrift store because the profits help needy people and it's recycling. I buy vases and flower pots all the time and gift them with flowers to people. [/quote]

+1 I used to volunteer at a charity thrift store and the thrift store model is actually built on people (mostly UMC in our area) donating stuff and then the same demographic coming in and spending on their neighbors' items and getting excited about the bargain. It all worked out because the money we generated went to really good causes. The charities we supported didn't need Wedgwood china or Lilly Pulitzer skirts, they needed cash which we were able to raise by selling those items to UMC shoppers.[/quote]
