HAUL: $22 at Salvation Army

Hi, I'm Andréa's younger sister Juliana.

I live 8.5 hours from Andréa during the school year, so I hadn't gotten a chance to go to her favorite Salvation Army store until today. Stores like that tend to overwhelm me, but having Andréa and our older sister, Christy, there to help me look made it easier to find stuff. Unlike Andréa, I was looking for specific items: comfortable jeans, denim shorts, and maybe a fun skirt. We managed to find everything I was looking for.

The Goods

Lace dress

Patterned skirt

Denim shorts

Skinny jeans

Bootcut jeans

My tally: 5 items for $22.

The Details

• 1 dress: 1 cream-colored lace dress for $7.49 (25% off of $9.99)
• 1 skirt: 1 multi-colored patterned mid-calf skirt for $3.74 (25% off of $4.99)
• 1 pair of shorts: 1 pair of knee-length denim shorts for $2.99 (25% off of $3.99)
• 2 pairs of jeans: 1 pair of dark DKNY skinny jeans for $3.74 (25% off of $3.99) and 1 pair of bootcut Seven jeans for $3.74 (25% off of $3.99)

Note on the jean shorts: I had seen a pair of super soft, long-ish denim shorts with a cuff at H&M for 249 RMB (roughly $37.50) that I really liked. I was fairly confident I could easily find long denim shorts at a thrift or discount store, but I wasn't so sure if they'd be as soft. These shorts are just as soft and comfortable, and by just cuffing the bottom, they look almost the same as the H&M ones for a tenth of the price.... not bad, if I do say so myself.
