Recession be damned; a woman needs her pretty

So a teacher friend of mine found a little treasure the other day while perusing Thrift Town. Aren’t they adorable? And a steal at only $3.99!

According to their website, Thrift Town is a “for-profit business that buys ALL of its merchandise from several nonprofit organizations. The money they raise from selling us “recycled goods” enables them to provide much needed programs and services to people in need.” So somebody donates to the ARC of Utah, for example, and Thrift Town buys merchandise from them and sells it back to you. Everybody wins!

Not everybody wins this big every time, but we teachers deserve a break now and then. Click the photo to check out the label.

Did you just say “SHUT UP!”?

Heh.
