Soon you will be heading off — if you haven't already — to garage, auction and flea-market sales. But thrift shops are open year-round, so you can find items to paint or recycle all year to keep or sell.
Thrift shops are inexpensive places to shop. They help the community, and some are run by charitable organizations. They keep more items out of landfills, and they are great for collectors who love furniture and other little extras. You never know, you may just strike it rich with a certain item of great value.
