How many of you fellow thrifters have visited the Dayton, Ohio Goodwill down the road from the Air Force Base?
We recently visited Dayton on vacation and I had the best time at this GW. It's like a warehouse. Everything is in big tubs and you just dig, dig, dig through stuff. The store is HUGE! The largest GW that I have ever seen. The clothes are on hangers and are $1.49 each. The electronics and very large things are priced separately, but everything in the tubs is 69 cents per pound. You wheel your shopping cart onto the scales when you are finished. I went two times, I loved it so much. I got tons of things....well not tons....they are weighing this stuff, but everything comes out much, much cheaper this way. Think of how little a paperback book weighs?
You can get a lot of these for 69 cents. One paperback at my hometown GW costs 79 cents. I am just using the paperbacks as an example. I bought a lot more than paperbacks. I found that I was throwing things into my cart that I may never have bought elsewhere, but I felt like they were almost free, considering their weight. Items like sewing notions, paper products, tiny toys, small plushes, weigh hardly anything. I loved it and urge all of my fellow thrifters to check it out if they are ever traveling through Ohio.
