Since I’ve started blogging and showcasing stylish items that I have found at Goodwill Keystone Area stores, my friends and family have been asking me to shop with them or for them. There’s no real secret, but I do have some tips to help you make the most of a visit to your local Goodwill store or outlet.
As someone who has been involved with Goodwill and their fundraising runway show (held every spring in Reading), I enjoy helping people discover just what Goodwill is all about. While I love the amazing fashions and accessories I purchase there, they are not just a clothing store. The sales from their stores fund training for persons with disabilities and other barriers to independence to achieve their fullest potential as workers and as members of the broader community.
To learn my “Secrets of a Thrifty Fashionista” I am inviting you to join me at the Exeter Community Library on Tuesday, October 25th at 6:30pm. I’ll be sharing my favorite designer finds, tips and tricks for finding the best items and which are my favorite local Goodwill stores (all of them really!). I’ll be bringing my friends to model some of my most favorite items and I’ll be giving away a $50 Goodwill gift card, some surprise door prizes from my fashion stash and Goodwill swag!
Bring your girlfriends and your favorite Goodwill finds. I love seeing what other people have found while shopping!
This is a free program, but registration is requested to save a seat! The Exeter Community Library is located at 4569 Prestwick Drive, Reading, PA 19606. You can call to make a reservation at 610-406-9431 or visit their website at http://www.berks.lib.pa.us/sxt/
