THRIFT STORES GO BEGGING?

BEEN TO YOUR LOCAL THRIFT STORE LATELY?

You may have noticed that the racks and shelves look a bit sparse. That's not just because more people are shopping at thrift stores but also BECAUSE DONATIONS ARE DOWN.

According to the management of one thrift store we went to, donations are down because now people are selling their things rather than donating.

And we notice that garage sales on lawns seem to be happening more in neighborhoods where the people who donate live!
