3301 W. Lawrence

Hello again my few and faithful readers! I think it high time to write again, but also to say, I really, really need to start taking pictures of all of my finds. Who really cares much what the store looks like as long as it's full of the good stuff, am I right? Therefore......I will now be presenting the items that I have purchased from each thrift store on this blog, yes yes. However, because this thrift was not a favorite there was nothing to buy alas. It wasn't all bad, but ya know if I didn't buy anything that's saying something about the store (or is it me? I can't remember...)Even still, there are some pros of this particular store.

PROS:
This store had a fantastic basement area that had a TON of shoes! I can't even begin to make you understand. There were like 4-5 racks and rows of shoes. I think I almost blacked out once or twice, but I didn't find anything-only because they didn't have a pair I needed.
Also next to the shoes was the books section and I skimmed over this section only because I was running out of time which I regretted. I saw a great many books here and the books section is one of my favorites. I was happy to see text books in the mix too, which isn't all that often a find, but can be valuable :)

I wouldn't call the clothing section all that remarkable since it's just the normal stuff you would see at most any thrift and I didn't even seem to see that many items in really great condition or the greatest selection. I wasn't moved and I wouldn't turn here if I was looking for a great top or dress like I would normally do in my "fabulous finds" stores :) I was obliged to look at all of the clothes (never know where you'll score that one of a kind piece). Nothing stood out to me for this store in terms of the clothing available. Seemed to be very typical.

CONS:
I wouldn't call this store the worst ever, and most everything was ok, so it's difficult to really say there were many cons to this store. I give this store an overal rating of "meh"

Wish I had more good things to say, but that's all I got!
