Lovin the sales.

JoAnn's Grocery Picks for the Week

Women's used clothing.
Does anyone know of any used clothing for women besides Twice N Nice? I have a friend who is looking for a dress for a wedding and wants to find something nice but modest.
Let me know.

Clothing Sales

As per Kara's comment, Once Upon a Child is having a sale on 'selected clothing and toys' (I think it may just be clearance). The later in the day you shop, the better the discount, up to 70% off after 3pm.
Plato's clothing is just like Once Upon a Child but for teenagers/young adults and it just opened in the old Glory Lighting store in the same strip mall as OUAC. Might be worth checking out if you're of that age or have kids that age.
Mark's is having their Father's day event this Thursday evening. I'm assuming it will be 20% off everything, including sale items, but call to confirm. They also have a $10 off if you spend $50 which you can use with the discount. Byron got a pair of shoes at the last sale reg $100 for about $70 with both discounts.
