Hunting for treasures....

...and Goodwill is one of the greatest places to find them. My husband and I probably spend too much time roaming the isles of the second hand stores in Eugene and Junction city but to find the best stuff you have to have patience and use creativity. Building supplies, light bulbs, electronics, kitchen tools.....

Our french doors and some of our windows in our house was found at Goodwill! 

The trick is to not buy stuff just because it's there...and that it might come in handy... sometime in the future.

And also, to donate stuff that you don't want any more back to the store!!!! 

I guess we keep the circle going. Donate-buy-donate back....Good for the environment (re-use,recycle) and for the Goodwill organization and people who work there.

However, look out for high prices! Some stores seem to think their "stuff" is worth  more than when it was new.

They should remember- it was DONATED in the first place.

Give us frugal people a great price and we'll keep coming back for more treasures...
