Prizes will be awarded to the highest scoring teams.

Out Of Your Attic Thrift Shop News
By Ruthi True
Shop Smart
I’m sure there are a lot of you who struggle, pay check to pay check.
Sometimes it hard to squeeze school clothing from that tight budget. School
will be starting sooner than you think. Why make clothing for the kids put
you more into debt? Why not start now? While you’re at it, why not try a
thrift shop to save you money? Everything will be new to your child even if
it isn’t all brand new. Young children will be so happy with different
clothing , they might not even know where it came from anyhow.
It’s not
a special, but it’s an everyday happening that you can fill a grocery bag
for just $2.00 at OUT OF YOUR ATTIC all year long. We also have daily
specials every day that we are open rain or shine. We will be having our 13
gallon bag $5.00 special, as well in August for BACK TO SCHOOL and it will
be for rooms #2 and #3. If you shop with us regularly you know there is good
stuff in there.
With the economy like it is, isn’t it more important to
save cash now? At thrift shops you can save on shoes, clothing, and tons of
other items, back to college dorm things, pans, utensils, sheets,
lamps, blankets, etc. Use cash where things are less expensive and the
credit card interest won’t pile up.
We need good pots and pans, and dish
sets, for kids going back to college, as we usually get lots of kids in
looking for these types of items.
We are collecting for our back packs
at the present time and are trying to outdo last year’s amount given out.
Wish list:
1) High chair for Epsom Lady.
2) Baby gates
needed for Pittsfield lady for grandchild.
3) Ossipee women looking for
Echo book by Danielle Steele.
We have folks coming to shop from all over
and we try to keep them all happy at low prices.
