Nancy
You are looking great. Way to go on the loss. I second the Goodwill or other second hand stores. I love shopping there for my new size clothes.
Keep on working on yourself.

Faith....I think most of the things I own except for kitchen stuff is from the Goodwill or thrift stores! (and some of that is also) lol! Actually I watched one of Oprah's last shows today where she went to Ralph Lauren's ranch in Telluride Colorado. I trained Ed well....he went to the Goodwill for a heavy comforter for the truck camper and he saw one that he liked the colors! I opened it up and it was a Ralph Lauren Polo!!! He did good! I looked it up online and although they didn't have that plaid, wow what prices!!!!!

My friend has a winter home in FL. She furnished it from Goodwill. It's gorgeous! However, the one she goes to has donations from people who love to redecorate almost yearly. I once almost bought some rooms of furnishings and have them shipped to me up north. Just didn't work out at that particular time.
Happy McDougalling!

our Goodwill has a calendar and every other Saturday has a 50% off sale. Love that but it hard to get thru the aisles with that many people there!
Our outside patio chairs were 12.50 apiece!
