I went to Vintage Values in PF around the beginning of October looking for a black dress for Halloween, which I found. They had it priced at $8.00 and I think I paid $6.00. It is a pretty formal, long black velvet gown. I think that is a very fair price!
I love shopping in Thrift stores, and due to my work hours & schedules, I have just never been in that store much. I took the opportunity to check out the clothes, too, in case I coud pick something up for the Things for Halloween. While looking, I came across winter coats! Well, long story short - I found a men's large Columbia jacket/coat marked $20.00. THAT is a steal for that coat, as it is the type with the zip-out jacket. so really, it's 3 jacket/coats for the price of 1! I think I got it for $16.00.
SO - for both items, they told me they would come down in the price and I think I got a very good deal on both.
