    Holy cow. I've never seen anything in a thrift for less than 4 bucks. Cool beans for you.

    this is a place that is all donations and all the money goes to Animals...the woman who runs it is great!!! She prices everything really low and the place is spotless...Someone donated all of a woman's sewing items...she sold the sewing machine and a ton of other stuff. I did not have time to go through all of it...so many new items in the packages. 3 for 75 cents...zipper, thread, scissors, all really nice items. I may have to go back tomorrow at lunch.
