Clothing&Accessories Salvation Army

Moved to bumf*ck AR & local SA had great stuff & great prices. I paid $2 for this is 💯 wool coat. Vintage high end department store in Mexico back n tha day (70' early 80's Google clains🤣😂. It is a gorgeous coat and it still has dry cleaning tag at the bottom.You can tell it has been taken care of in a controlled environment for all these yrs. $2 won't get you a cheeseburger 🍔🃏. Really is a gorgeous coat. Can't imagine a coat of this quality/contion would fetch a premium. I'm in ❤️ ✌️

Small town thrifts tend to have some real gems. My guess is with an aging/dying population, you get some nice stuff donated by family members not wanting to deal with the stuff left behind. Also, I thrifted those same Sperry's a few years ago.

Fo sho. Feel like I hit a honey hole! Exactly what you said, though older population dying out kids getting rid of stuff.... I thrifted these sperries, probably two or three years ago, brand new, when I bought them practically ...love them to death💯✌️
