Thrifty Love Gift Exchange

Do you love thrift shopping as much as I love thrift shopping?

Yep. That's what I thought.

My addiction love for thrift shopping began 21 years ago when Nick was in the Navy and we moved to Virginia Beach, Virginia.  Y'all...there were thrift stores on every corner and an entire military community that was constantly moving and therefore downsizing with each move...it made for a thrifter's  paradise. 

And don't even get me started on garbage days!  Perusing through base housing on garbage day was like hitting the jack pot...there was always someone moving out...cha ching!!...but that's another post for another day...

Today I want to tell you about this..

If you love to thrift shop and you love meeting new friends, 

then hold on to Goodwill buggy (or cart for you Northern girls)...
