The Salvation Army

I recently moved into the Lancaster area, and really missed being in very close proximity to the Salvation Army stores and Goodwill stores where I used to live. So today I ventured out to find the closest thrift stores I could.
I had stumbled upon the Goodwill, which was. meh. They had some stuff… but clothing selection was next to nothing. However! The Salvation Army, I was extremely surprised at how big the place was. There is also a donation center there which made it even easier because I had tons to drop off. Since Lancaster isn’t necessarily what you’d think of as the most up-​to-​date city. you can imagine the gems that were lingering in this place. I found some extremely awesome coats, ones that are practically brand new, for 4 or 5 bucks. Name brands and off brands. I got 6 bags worth of clothes and miscellaneous pictures and funky housewares for $ 22.74. I thought I had at least 40 – 50 bucks worth there. My friend has been searching for a Member’s Only jacket in grey for almost 2 years. Not only did I find one, but it still had the tags on it and was 3 dollars. It was in perfect condition. I bought a Kenneth Cole jacket with tags on it that said originally 379.00 and it was 5 friggen’ dollars.
Needless to say, this tucked away thrift haven totally redeemed my hopes for Lancaster. I probably could have done without the mentally handicapped man screaming, but hey… isn’t that another reason we go to thrift stores? Company like this is always welcome :) I’ll be back!
