Debbie said:You have to know how to look for the good prices . At our Goodwill stores, they have the aisles for the knic knacs set up horizonally to the front door. The aisle's are only about 8 ft long with items on both sides. The very first one facing the front door has the higher priced items. 2.99 to 6.99. They are not bigger items or better items, just higher priced items. I think they mark the newer items coming in at a higher price. Then the second aisle prices (same kind of items) are 1.49 - 2.49 each. Third aisle drops to .99 - 1.99 each. Then the cups,saucers and glasses are .59 each. And finally the last aisle. Things are marked from .29 each to .59 each. No rhyme or reason to it. So I think they put the things back on the last aisle at a lower price, cause they have been there for a while. Guess which aisle I shop. Whistling


That's mostly how my GW is arranged too. Every day they have a tag color (oldest stuff) on sale for half price ... senior discount is always 10% with an additional 10% off on Thursdays for those of us over 60. Occasionally on a Saturday, everything is half price. Problem with that is that you can't see the end of the checkout line it's so busy then. Shrug!
I garden for the pollinators.
