Hmmm, must be a regional thing because at MY goodwill and Salvation Army stores I find stuff BRAND NEW with store tags still on it for very little $$. Do you actually try going into your local thrift store, sallys or goodwill or are you just going by some unfounded old stigma? You may be surprised at how many items they have that are new or next to new.
Can anyone give us an estimated yardage you can get from a 100% cotton Men's long-sleeve shirt, size Large? Goodwill sells Men's shirts for $4.49 @.
