Here is my take on consignment stores. Consider this "Part II" to my article about Thrift Store shopping.
I mention in that article that I'm gung-ho about shopping for "gently used" items at thrift stores, but I'm not so crazy about shopping at consignment stores.
Here's why...
In my mind, shopping in thrift stores has practically replaced shopping in outlet malls as a way to find great bargains these days.
I'd attribute that to the fact that outlets aren't really filled with bargain prices anymore. Name brand clothing & household goods... maybe. Cheap prices... probably not.
These days more and more frugal-minded people have their eye on the bottom line, which is: How to get something for almost nothing.
Here's how: Shop in thrift stores!
