$1.00 sale begins on Thursday, January 19, and it’s a always one of Columbia thrifty fashion shoppers’ favorite days to find bargains. One of the best "fishing holes" to find fashion treasures in Columbia keeps getting better. Goodwill Industries International of Columbia has a half price savings corner filled with racks most days and one dollar racks on Thursdays and Fridays. There are many Goodwill thrift stores in Columbia. Just enter your zip code to in the box where it says, “Find Your Local Goodwills.”
The one dollar racks are crammed with tanks, tops, knits, tees, beaded tops, sweaters, suits, skirts, dresses, jeans, trousers, skirt and pant suits and much more. It’s a great way to spend an hour or two, and hidden treasures are sure to show up. It wouldn’t be surprising if you met people you know there taking advantage of the bargains too. The sale racks usually drop to fifty cents on Sunday for even better fashion fishing.
The dollar racks can also help thrifty fashion shoppers earn a little extra money by purchasing name brand clothing in mint condition, such as Tommy Hilfiger and Lauren jeans, Ralph Ann Taylor Loft and Cato tops, and Coldwater Creek casuals and reselling them on eBay or at your local consignment shop for much more than you paid. Some items are actually donated brand new and have store price tags attached. Even following the fifty-cent clearance sale of last weekend, the racks are well stocked and filled with new selections for the thrifty fashion shopper. Many items are donated locally; others are brought in from other locations. Recently noticed at the Goodwill on Two Notch Road was a very nice selection of sweaters, jeans, sleepwear and robes, and warm winter coats and jackets.
