frugal diary

When you need good stuff…try the Salvation Army Stores.  Here in Michigan, we have the nation’s largest Salvation Army. Of course, with our economy, maybe it’s needed.

Yesterday, I needed some things and went to the Rochester Salvation Army, which was the biggest Salvation Army in the nation until the newest one, off Hall Road opened last month.

Anyway, here’s the skinny; I needed bras. I found them; Vanity Fair and Maidenform.

I needed really warm pajama pants. I found those, too for one dollar.

An umbrella? Check

Brush and comb set for my toddler. Of course, and still in packaging.

Halloween decorations for next year? Yep, 80% off. And I got new flip flop (Halloween-themed) also for 80% off.
