Give and Get (even bridal things) at Goodwill and Salvation Army

Today, Mr. Chic ‘n Cheap and I dropped off 10 bags of clothing and stuffed animals at Goodwill. It felt pretty darn good.

I gave some decent stuff too like a like new DKNY leather bag and a black BR suit. I hope those find good homes. I really encourage everyone to give or buy at Goodwill/Salvation Army.

Why you should give:
– That shirt is cute, but you have 5 of them or you haven’t worn it in 5 years.
– You will be eco-friendly and someone will get use out of your things again
– Tax deduction – a cool thing obviously

I actually saw 2 wedding dresses there. Dresses (didn’t list formal wear prices separately) were listed at $7.99. How amazing if you were a bride and you could get a dress for the price of lunch. It’s really nice to know that even brides with modest wedding budgets can get nice gowns as well.

Goodwill now has an online presence too. I don’t believe this includes all stores. Pretty cool though.
