I LOVE Goodwill!

I've always been a fan of TAKING stuff to Goodwill, but, in the last few years, have also started SHOPPING there.  They have the COOLEST stuff! 

My students at school LOVE the "Guinness Book of World Records" (any year), and I've been able to pick up 10 or 12 copies there recently.  I've also found some COOL vintage cookbooks, fake plants for my "no sun exposure at all" media center, Christmas record albums that I've framed and hung during the holidays, and, a few weeks ago, found a crockpot for $15.00 that I can use for potlucks and school "parties" (saving my "favoritest and best" crockpot for home use only). 

Yesterday I found a dark blue suit that will be PERFECT for "Bye Bye Birdie", in which I'm currently acting, and I scored a REALLY cool leather jacket (from the Gap) for $30.00!!!


I'm supporting a really good cause, and I'm finding some REALLY cool stuff.  I actually SEEK OUT Goodwill stores when I visit other places...just to see what TREASURES they have to offer...

Here's hoping YOU have a Goodwill nearby, and that YOU find it as AWESOME as I do!!!!

SHOUTOUT to my buddy Amy's sister Sara...who is a bigwig with the company in Wisconsin...Goodwill ROCKS!!!!
