we no longer have a good thrift store in my area, only a Goodwill and I've seen prices there higher than brand new at Target, just crazy. The good thrift store moved out a few years ago and set up an hrs drive away and I just don't go that way often enough and not going to spend gas just to go to the thrift store even tho I miss it, darn it.
so glad that hubby got his 'prize' and you did too!
