oh i aboslutly agree, i refuse to pay full price for anything under normal circumstances, but right now, goodwill has been my frined, i hit up both the ones in my area at least once a week, but jeans are still $13-$20 a pair...
thats where i picked up my 2 nice dresses though, both for under $5 each

the pricing around here is weird...
you can pit up coats for $15, dresses for $5-$10 a peice, ive even seen full wool suits for pennies on the dollar...but want jeans or swimwear and youll pay almost retail for it...
my sister works at one fo the goodwill and she doesnt know why they get priced to high, but she is more than happy to tell me ahead of time if theres any bargains, what color the tag is and lets me abuse her employee discount on her days off (she has to come in with me...)
i dont go out much right now so i certinaly have enough clothes to see me through...but once i have my own place, closet space and am only doing laundry for 1 (therfore will only be doing it tops once a week lol) i definatly need a few more outfit changes LOL...right now i can get away with 2 pairs fo jeans as if i need ot toss them in the wash, mums always got somethign ready to go in and i throw em in with whatever...
but when its just me lol.
lol on shrinking woman...
its a little crazy..
when i had the surgery they told me..expect to loose somewhere between 60-70% of your excess weight in the first year...
so i whent into this at 318lbs expecting to get down about 100lbs in my first year...
133lbs later im still going at a nice pace, im healthy, not being silly about it, im certinaly not overly pushing myself or doing it stupidly...but i keep chugging along which is awesome.
im about 82% of my excess weight gone so far...another 30 or so lbs to go...im extatic...
but today i put on my only remaining pair of "scruffy pants" (sweats that are covered in paint and glue and messy stuff that i use for decorating and getting real dirty) to go and pull some weds in the veggie patch...and had to literally TiE them on...
gonna have ot look for a super chepa pair of new scruffy pants lol
