By Karina Frost


Your house has a "shabby chic" appeal and everything in it is warm and inviting. You have found all of your furnishings at the thrift stores Hanover Pa has within their city limits. You also make a point to search through clothing, fashion accessories, books, home accessories and more for some excellent bargains on slightly used items.

Many households do not even think twice about donating their used clothing items to these venues. They sometimes do this so they can receive tax deductions or they just want to help out the charity featured by the store. There are so many clothing items to search through. Many of these have been donated just because they no longer fit the original owner and there is absolutely nothing wrong with them. You can find some great bargains on jeans, shorts, dresses, nightgowns, and jackets. Specialty items such as prom dresses, formals and other high-dollar clothing items can be purchased at a small percentage of their original prices.

Accessories and footwear such a purses, bags, shoes, belts, scarves, and boots can be found at bargain prices.
