[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 420008, member: 84"] LMAO Casey I'd use the 7 day policy and see if they let you return them since they didn't fit. Salvation Army behind dayton mall used to have fitting rooms (not sure if they still do) and I made use of them. They were prone to marking clothing wrong or sticking a child's size 14 in a woman's section. I went to a SA not far from us as well as one in east gate (near cincy) both horrid places and I didn't return. That reminds me.......I need to pay the state thrift store a visit over in washington courthouse. lol Haven't been there in a while.......ought to take katie when I go, they had tons of household stuff. I grew up in Goodwill, Salvation Army, and with yard sales..........only had 1 xmas with new stuff, no other "new" stuff until I was 16 and had a job to buy it for myself. I swore I'd never have 2nd hand again. lol But I'm not my mom and I don't buy clothes 30 yrs out of style for my grandkids.........and if you look hard enough and time it well you can find some awesome things. So now I'm sort of addicted to all 3. lol But it's my entertainment, too........and husband does know it. He only fusses if I take him along.....unless it's a good yard sale. lol Susie I could get you baskets out the wazoo. I don't do baskets......they remind me of clutter. Our GW is nice and organized.......(in an old kroger store) at least clothes wise......pretty much for other things too but you do have to dig and that takes time and effort. They offer mattresses and box springs (new) but Nichole who has been pricing such things tells me they're on the high side. Ours has had some beautiful paintings/prints of late.......having a hard time not picking those up........but I'm still trying to figure out what to do with all of the ones from mother in law and some I got from yard sales. lol So no, passed them by. Katie did get some nice plastic glasses, bowls, and flatware for really cheap. Those you have to pick through and move things around or you'll miss the really nice stuff. I got a very ancient teen cast iron skillet in mint condition one time......and I love it! Yard sales will probably start this weekend. Our weather has just been to cold until just now. One of my goals is to find Evan a bike with training wheels so he has something to play on outside with his sibs. By our next trip to GW, husband and I should have the family room finished. And I'll load up what I planned to donate and drop it off before I shop. lol [/QUOTE]
