Overview
A couple of blogs ago I talked about starting an Instagram page for thrift store finds and eventually put the up for sale. Yesterday I drove up to Montgomery to look at a Plato’s Closet (consignment shop), Goodwill, and Dirt Cheap. I scored big at Dirt Cheap and Plato’s Closet. Let me just tell you what deals I found!!!
Dirt Cheap
Dirt Cheap is a discount store that is located everywhere in the United States. I found a cute fall turtleneck for $3. How the heck did I get so lucky? I also found a pair of Steve Madden sandals for $15. Those same shoes would be sold at Dillard’s for $80 bucks! That is ridiculous. The last thing I found here was a cute black sweater from the Target brand Mossino. This exact sweater online at Target is $20 and I paid a whole $5.
Plato’s Closet
I originally went to here to drop off a bag of clothes that have been riding around in the trunk of my car. I took it in just to see if they would buy any of it because after they went through it, I was going to take it to the Goodwill. I ended up shopping at Plato’s Closet and found a maroon skirt from a boutique for $8. Another thing I bought was an outfit for our date party next weekend. I didn’t really see a point in spending $40 on an outfit to wear 1 time. I found a neon pink dress for $4. The best thing I found here was a Free People sweater for $12 and it originally would cost $90. To make this trip even better, they bought $26 worth of my clothes that I took them. Basically I got all of my new clothes for free and got back $0.86 back:)
I encourage everyone to go out of their comfort zone and shop in these cheaper stores. You never know what you will find.
