Like a mommy at Talbots, I feel peachy keen satisfaction when traipsing through the aisles of a Salvation Army thrift store. Gems abound. The turnover is tremendously quick as well. People get rid of massive quantities of clothing. I reckon there is enough of it in the world right now to clothe many bodies for much time. So I save buying new for special occasions--like I do for meat eating.
FRUGAN - living sparingly with regard to the detriment of one's wallet, environment, climate, society, and general sense of well being.
