Cheap Buys
“I’ve got loads and loads of selections of money Daddy! But it’s your money!”
— Lucy’s logic for why we can go out
On this day of no labor I made time to hit Savers. They were having a “50% Off All Clothes” sale, so I made sure to head over by 9am so that I could scram before the place got too crowded.
It’s hard to believe, but I’ve actually been going to this particular Savers off and on for over 25 years! I shot the above pic on the left around 1984, when the store was still a Thrift Village. The top right pic was taken this morning.
It’s tough looking at jeans at other stores when I’m so accustomed to getting Levi’s for 5-6 bucks at Savers. And today’s sale made the deals that much better.
Below is a pic of today’s haul. If you click on the pic you’ll get a better view of the captions I added with details on pricing. I think I should be OK on jeans for a while!

SCORE! I love Savers, we have one up here too. I have a hard time finding stuff that fits me though. I think men’s clothes are a bit easier.

I ended up exchanging one pair of pants because when I inspected it closer at home I discovered the pants legs had been hemmed. The length was actually closer to Wubie’s inseam than mine.
I returned some shirts too and just got some pants instead. Pants are way easier to shop for than shirts. I ended up w/ 5 pairs of pants for around $20. SCORE!
