Thrifting is more than just an errand – it can be the inspiration for a fun-filled afternoon!
Grab your water bottle and a reusable bag, call a friend, and drive on over to Arlington, Va, for an afternoon filled with thrifty fun! The nonprofit Goodwill locations in the region are packed with fantastic goodies, from vintage desks to name-brand shoes in all sizes.
Here’s a mini agenda/plan, based on my own practices, for you to use when you journey to Arlington, VA, to thrift it up at the area’s two signature locations. Support local, support the community, and have a good time!
REMEMBER: Bring donations to drop off too! The Glebe Road location has a convenient and quick Donation Center.
