My mother is a great ThriftScorer. I can guarantee pretty much everything in this picture, from 1968, is a Thrift Score. Even the pram!
Today, Michele brings us an excellent angle on ThriftScoring.
"Other Mothers in Maplewood, NJ is amazing. It is stocked with gently worn children's clothing. My son grows like a weed, so I take clothing there for trade-ins. I just picked up a London Fog rain coat for him for under $10, and it is in excellent condition."
Kids go so quickly through clothes -- weather they're growing out of them or destroying them by the impromptu roll around the mud -- why WOULDN'T you make ThriftScoring your main mode of buying for them? Likewise for maternity wear. Unless you are expecting to win an Academy Award on national TV and need a sparkly new number that will behoove your bump, why not ThriftScore your clothes for those six months you're showing and save the rest of your pennies for spa treatments?
