      Dear Diana ~ I’m so sorry to hear of your loss of your daughter, your accident and yes COVID shutting us down!
      It is always fun to go with Yvonne on her Thrifting trips. We too had an awful accident the week BEFORE COVID shut the world down. Have not been good since then. Husband is doing well…praise the Lord … but I have issue that prevent me from driving ( something happened in the accident that is rapidly taking my vision ) and almost passing out a lot. The Medical community cancels appts… or won’t let you make one ! Finally got in to a Cardiologist… all types of test and procedures…then 2 different Neurologists… tons of test, scans, etc… Finally back to my Spine Specialist … so RUDE… he says learn to live with it 🤷‍♀️ In other words…he can’t or wont be bothered with it !
      I understand the isolation and sadness when we can’t get to, or physical can’t do stuff !
      Prayers for strength, comfort and peace in your soul dear one 🙏🙏

    The price issue must be nationwide or either just in Michigan. I’ve experienced the same thing at all the thrift stores in the Flint, Lapeer area. You’re correct, there are hardly any shoppers and very low inventory. I really don’t understand, they get their inventory free. We buy to flip but what about those who are in need of some of the items?

    Watching you go to thrift stores is a great money save for me. I get to look at shelves and items without spending a dime. However...I would have gotten a couple of things had I been at the stores you visited. In Calif, nothing is cheap...rarely a bargain. Even paperback books can go for more than the original price. I remember the days when I would ask a dime but in the end...I just gave books away. I wanted people to read.
