Intervention?? Mwah??

I drive more aggressive than usual~ My excitement is uncontrolable~ My heart palpitates as soon as I walk through the door~ Grab a basket...no, scratch that, I grab a cart~ Aaaaaah~ The wonderful world of thrifting~

Okay, so I am pushing it a little bit this week~ I usually just go once a week to Sal Val (nickname my girlfriend gave for Salvation Army)~ But I couldn't help it this week~ For some reason I had an urge to go out again today, the craziest of days to go~ So was it worth it? Oh most definitely! Yes it was more crowded today, bumping into people and other carts trying to go down every isle to look at each piece of clothing~ But nothing compares to the feeling of finding a nice piece and to find one in your size?? It's orgasmic! Yes! I'm crazy! But I don't need an intervention~ I'm not going to put my family out on the streets spending all of our money on thrift items~ But hey...let's face it, more and more 2nd hand stores are opening across the country~ This is how American families are shopping now~ So if you think it's a waste of time and not your thing...then you just don't get it~ Plain and simple~ So go ahead and buy your $50 pair of jeans and $500 purse~ I'll most likely find the same at the thrift store for $5~

Okay, enough venting...onto the fabulous finds today:
