Consignment Store

Today I took some of the rummage sale leftovers to a few consignment stores. These particular stores give you cash up front, which is nice. I was able to net another $28.40 for my club fund. I need to remember to frequent these stores more often. Another good way of recycling. The one store is Clothes Mentor. They are very picky with their intake, which means you can find some nice deals. I will have to post a photo sometime of the cute yellow trench I picked up in the spring from there.

Rummage Sale

Today I had a rummage sale as a fundraiser for school. What a great way of recycling and earning money for my department. However, I was greatly surprised by the items some people bought. One lamp was so incredibly ugly and yet someone paid two dollars for it. Amazing. I was able to unload some things. Of course, I also gained some, but at least it is 'recycling' and goes to a good cause.

No Photo, No Computer

So my niece pulled my laptop off its shelf and broke it. I need to take some new photos and buy a new laptop. I will get into this blogging thing when I have the funds to purchase to a new laptop. I know laptops are more environmentally friendly than a desktop, however, I need to research which is the best eco-wise. Until then I will just post when I can on borrowed computers here and there.
