Someone shopping at St. Vincent DePaul's Thrift Store.............
may be very happy. I've lost a lot of weight over the past few years (100 to be exact). Today I decided to clean out my closet. I kept a lot of clothes, because I was afraid of gaining the weight back. A year ago I was wearing size 20W, went to Kohl's yesterday (had a gift card from Christmas) and found that I wear a misses size 14.
Tomorrow I will be depositing in St. Vincent's bin (behind a local church), 11 pair of slacks and jeans. 7 of them are LL Bean corduroys, jeans and wool (washable). The rest are from Chadwick's, JC Penney, and Kohl's. 2 pair of shorts, 1 pair of capri pants, 2 flannel shirts and a pair of white wool pants. I loved the white wool, wore them around the holidays with a red sweater.
Geez, when I was working and had money, I bought nice clothes. A few weeks ago I went to St. Vincent's and found a pair of never worn JC Crew corduroy slacks, tags still attached for $7.99, and I didn't pay for them, Mom did.
I have checked all the pockets and did find $7.00.
