Did you know that most thrift stores offer great deals yet the proceeds go to local charitable organizations? It's a win-win for savers like you and for the stores/organizations!
I recently went to my local thrift store to check out the deals and I was VERY IMPRESSED with this store! It's clean, organized and the customer service is good! It's called the Texas Thrift Store and it is located
2200 E Veterans Memorial Blvd, Killeen ·
254-432-4906
Every Monday, they offer $.99 on select colored tags.
Every Tuesday offers 30% off for senior citizens.
Every Wednesday, if you show your military ID, you will receive 30% off your purchase.
Each week, a color is picked as a "sale color" and any prices tags with that color will be 50% off those items with that tag color for the week. That color sale starts every Tuesdays and ends Sunday night. What doesn't sell at the 50% sale will be $.99 on Monday. A new color will start Tuesday morning. Everything in the store has different colored tags. There are 5 colors of tags in this particular order: White, Blue, Yellow, Green and Orange.
The proceeds from the sales go to an organization called "Arms of Hope". This organization focuses on children and families in crisis. They offer assistance programs that serve at-risk children by providing for children's physical, spiritual, educational and emotional needs. They also offer pregnant & single mothers shelter, necessities and the tools & resources to better their life and for their children and includes future college and career programs as well.
I bought a bunch of toddler short sleeve shirts in great condition....all from Crazy 8s and The Children's Place at 50% off Tuesday! (yellow tags that week!) So all the yellow tags that didn't sell that week will be $.99 on Monday!
I went back Wednesday and got a pair of brand new Ann Taylor Loft shoes at 30% off (military discount)...paid $9!
The order that the colors that will fall on each week is:
Yellow
Green
Orange
White
Blue
