    I know from experience, you don’t find things every time you go thrifting ..
    But I always enjoy seeing you too!🥰

    Good Will has lost its reasoning for second hand clothes. Their prices are becoming so high that they think they are a department store.

      Amen. I saw a PB curtain panel (50” X 84”) at GW. They had 3 next to each other. They priced each at $29.99!!!!!! I thought it must be wrong and had them confirm the price. They said, “yes…each is $29.99.” 😂

    Hey ladies, you are so right, if something is damaged first of all, they should think is it worth selling and then for how much. I mean those prices for damaged things hmmm, I don't think sooo.

    • @frugalfashionfun

      We think the workers are trained to put everything on the racks despite being heavily damaged. And that’s just horrible. And insulting really. Who is going to pay $15 for a shredded leather jacket. Nobody!!

      Yeah there was nothing there that really caught our eye. We were just having fun trying on everything lol. And it snowed here Sunday and now it’s 50 and raining! The weather is so crazy everywhere. But we are enjoying wearing our old and new winter finds. We went to Target and they already have swimsuits out 🥴.

    I got something from your trip to Goodwill... a great mantra. Be proud of your game.
    Yes, Goodwill is out of touch. Tee, a $1 rack is a great idea! Let's all suggest that at the Goodwills we visit. Savers gives a 20% off coupon when you donate and Goodwill could do the same.
    There are people in the world who are sewing wizards and they could buy that jacket with the eaten-up collar and make it new. They put their time and skills into their creations, so they need their goods to be LOW cost. Most of them are sewing, mending, and recreating for an income. I'm surprised what people even use to create beautiful throw pillows. I watched a person on UA-cam make cute ones out of placemats! If an item doesn't sell at the Goodwill stores, it goes to the Goodwill bins/outlet stores. Whatever doesn't sell at the bins, goes to the nearest landfill. Every Goodwill should have a $1 rack.

    • @frugalfashionfun
      @frugalfashionfun  10 місяців тому +1

      One thing about us…we will put Goodwill and/or Savers on blast! We show the good, the bad and the ugly. We have written Savers and Goodwill headquarters about their pricing structure and of course got no response. Granted this was years ago. Probably time to try again. Because there needs to be some change. The $1 rack would be a great addition. Because like you said there are amazing DIYers out there. We watch DIY UA-cam channels too and wow these people are creative and talented!! They could easily fix/repurpose that eaten up collar. Well we will probably never see a $1 rack but it would be nice.
      Oh we have been to the bins and ummmm we ain’t going back. We’ve been 2 times. We actually have those videos on our channel. The lowest of the low, the trashiest of the trash. No thanks. We ain’t got time to dig for trash lol.

      Right! There was a plethora of plus size perfection. One thing we will say about Goodwill is they are inclusive with sizing. From xs to 3X. Lots of variety in all sizes.

    From what I see at my Goodwills, they sell trash, unless you go to the stores in the "well to do" areas and then the prices are higher than a giraffe's neck!

      @frugalfashionfun  10 місяців тому +2

      So true! Location makes all the difference. Which is sad but true. We have experienced this first hand thrifting in NYC. And the crazy part is some of that stuff is expensive and still trash 🥴.
