Where I Thrift
Everyone has their favorite thrift stores, right? Okay, you do if you love thrifting as much as I do! Here are the stores where I enjoy popping tags:
Saver’s in Bloomington – close proximity to Prestigious West Bloomington and Edina equals excellent, higher end thrift scores. Remember, if you donate? You receive a 20% off coupon you can use right away!
Saver’s in Columbia Heights – it’s the nearest thrift store to my house, and they have the NICEST staff of any Saver’s in the TC, in my humble opinion.
ARC Value Village – For me, ARC is hit or miss. I either score BIG, or leave empty-handed. Either way, I always enjoy perusing this tidy, friendly shop.
