While writing my post RIM FAMILY SERVICES-A Non-Profit Agency, I got to thinking how useful our local Thrift Stores can be. Now some people may snub their noses at the mention of the words "Thrift Store." But for many fine folks, these stores may mean the difference between buying an affordable pair of shoes for themselves of their loved ones, or NOT being able to buy shoes at all. Not everyone can shop in department stores or on-line for new products. Times are difficult for many people, and for many different reasons.
The fact is, Thrift Stores have helped millions of people over the years. Instead of high priced department stores, folks on limited budgets or very low incomes, can shop in these stores and find great bargains on household goods or clothing. Also, one important detail that people forget when it comes to Thrift Stores, is the fact that these shops are like ONE BIG RECYCLING SYSTEM, which in turn helps our environment.
You know the old saying, One Man's Junk, is Another Man's Treasure.... It's TRUE!
