<p>[QUOTE=&quot;evelyb30, post: 1993241, member: 36&quot;]Cheap belts.&nbsp; The &quot;vegan&quot;, i.e. plastic, ones hang around forever.&nbsp; Size XS clothes, including designer ones at some thrifts.&nbsp; Small shoes.&nbsp; (Size 10-12 women&#039;s in good shape vanish as soon as they show up.) Mardi Gras beads and other el-cheapo jewelry.&nbsp; Someone might buy it for a kid&#039;s dress-up box but otherwise they pretty much have to give it away.&nbsp; Hand made pottery, or anything home made that&#039;s not done well.&nbsp; Overpriced florist vases.&nbsp; It all shows up at local thrifts and sits there.&nbsp; Chipped anything.&nbsp; T-shirts with random family reunion slogans on them.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>4. Coffee Mugs: If you are frugal never buy a coffee mug for &quot;retail&quot; since the local thrift store will almost always have one to meet your requirements and they seem to be slow sellers. I don&#039;t understand why they don&#039;t dumpsterize some of the advertising/corporate ones to begin with since who wants to pay for a mug that was given away 20 years ago by the local radio station.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;ve bought a few of those mugs.&nbsp; Sometimes a local nonprofit&#039;s stuff shows up and I know people who work there or for whom it&#039;s a favorite.&nbsp; I bought one from the town library for my mom.&nbsp; If they&#039;re out of market, might as well send them straight to the dumpster, but if they&#039;re local you never know.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
