Shopping before the holidays has gotten insane!
Prices seem to keep going up and let's be honest my paycheck doesn't increase at the same rate.. Back in the day if you bought something used images of local thrift stores race through my mind.
You 👀 old shoes and dishes.
Strolling from yard sale to yard sale and seeing musty books and old exercise equipment next to a pile or two of baby items. We've all seen it.
Please Note: I'm not knocking other resale establishments or organizations like the Betty Griffen House, Goodwill, or local thrift stores such as our St. Vincent De Paul thrift store who do truly help our communities. Considering they have to make a little money to pay employees and keep the place of operation open. When it comes down to it though- it's always a little cheaper cutting out the 3rd party and buying from individuals.
(If you enjoy Facebook Marketplace be sure to check out Facebook Swipswap too!) I slightly expect to hear sometimes, "I don't do anything with that Facebox thing."
If this is the case try checking one or both of these sites: 1.) www.letgo.com or 2.) www.offerup.com- These are much better than sites like craigslist 💀
Don't be afraid of newer places, like Freaky Antiquey in our town or this store called "Everything cool".
What to expect?😊
Killer deals on things that may be in brand new - or LIKE NEW condition- for a fraction of high retail prices.
This puts me at peace with my wallet & is a big time-saver, (which I need as many as I can find in my busy life)!
5 years ago I started here at Florida Cash and this whole new world opened my eyes to the land of RESALE!!
I want to help others too. At this time lets keep this short & light shall we?
I want to wish everyone a happy end to their month of December. Peace, Joy & Saving money too all!
Don't forget to support local
