| - Yes, it's a madhouse. Yes, some of the stuff is icky or broken, but if you have patience (and hand sanitizer) you will score big time. The people who say they would NEVER wear an item that has (gasp) been shuffled around a few times obviously have the luxury of paying full price at Nordstroms. I do not. Even when I am not on a tight budget, I still love thrifting! Have any of you people heard of a washing machine, or dry cleaners? It's not like I grab something off the rack at Last Chance and immediately wrap myself up in it without so much as washing it. I bought a pair of Hunter wellies brand new, for $40, about $600 worth of Peek children's clothing for about $75, maybe less. Got my daughter some brand new Nordstroms cowboy boots for $12. Scored a Free People shirt (gorgeous!) for $5. Found lots of Citizens of Humanity, Hudson, and Joe's Jeans for less than $29, all brand new. Leave the kids at home, plan a few hours, and anticipate some crowds. If you don't care about saving a few (or many) bucks, then head over to Nordstroms and buy your Stuart Weitzmans for $300.
