$.50 Day At The Thrift Store



So I finally had a Saturday off to go to the thrift store. I hit up my favorite thrift store which was having a $.50 sale on all their clothing.
Here is what I got:
  • Clogs
  • Fleece Hat ( I usually dont buy hats at second hand stores but this one for some reason was calling to me)
  • Brand new Van Heusen shirt in packaging for hubby
  • Cordury Pants
  • Cordury Jacket
  • New turtleneck with tags still on it
  • Workout long sleeve shirt
  • White Long sleeve shirt
  • Sweater
  • L.L Bean Striped 3/4 length sleeve shirt

My favorite deals
Brand new Scrabble Slam game i've been looking for

7 black and white notecards (Vertical New York by Horst Hamann) not sure what im going to do with them but they're really cool.
Total spent $6.50

So I took it one step further and looked up all the clothes online by brand to see if I bought them new what I would have paid for them. (These are just based on online prices, which some are ridiculous I would have never spent that much brand new). Alot of the clothes I found exact matches on their company website, a few of them I had to compare to an item in the same price range.

Anywhere Clogs $52.00
Brand new Van Heusen shirt in packaging for hubby $28.00
Willi Smith Cordury Pants $19.99
Marks & Spencer Cordury Jacket $104 converted from 65 pounds
Energie New turtleneck with tags still on it $19.00
Athletic Works Workout long sleeve shirt $10.00
