Shop to Stop Domestic Violence, Caroline's Collectibles,
Morehead City, North Carolina
Okay Folks, this is a no brainer in my opinion. Save the planet, save some money, clean out your closets and help stop Domestic Violence at the same time!
Caroline's Collectibles is a unique Thrift Store located at 3716 Arendell Street in Morehead City, North Carolina. They have only two paid sales associates and several volunteers who man the shop. They are always so friendly and helpful, and obviously believe in the cause they are supporting. Proceeds help benefit the Carteret County Domestic Violence Program.
Caroline's Collectibles is a great little shop, clean and neat, and full of treasures. The clothing selection is wonderful and well organized. They also carry shoes, dishes and small household items, books, music, jewelry and BAGS! I love Bags, but I especially love the selection of Vintage Bags that Caroline's always has available...I am a sucker for anything Vintage. Just yesterday, I came home with a bag full of "New" Clothes. I went to Caroline's and only spent $11. Three new shirts, one skirt and yes...One Bag, all for $11! My personal rule is that for every new item of clothing I buy, I donate 2! In fact, as my weight fluctuates, I have actually been known to donate something and then buy it back!!!
Donations of clothing and household items are always welcome. If you have furniture and other large items, they will schedule a pickup for you at your convenience, and then the items are given to families who are trying to get back on their feet after leaving a violent situation. All donations to Caroline's Collectibles are tax deductible. To make a donation, please call #252-726-3081.
