Re: I Just Bought a Pair of Shoes!
I remember years ago I didn't have a lot of good clothes and people gave me used clothes but some of the suits I got I think they got them off a dead man cuz they stunk BAD and nothing I could do fixed it...

But in the back of my mind I was asking God for a nice dress jacket...a dark one.

One day I walked into the Retarded Citizens thrift store and they had row upon row of dark dress jackets. All Hagars. I think they were brand new. First one I tried on fit perfectly. Paid $2.50 for it.

  6. The saint will go on to strive to live a holy life, pleasing to God.

Jeans can cost 100,000,000.00 if they are not Wrangler, they are not fit to wear.

I LOVE Goodwill!! I bought a very cute pair of Bandolino shoes a couple of weeks ago that would sell for $69 retail for $3.99 at Goodwill. I have lots of expensive name brand clothes for me and my hubby for for next to nothing.

I had a young minister in the church I pastored that bought 2 extra nice Johnston and Murphy shoes at Goodwill. Either the man bought them and died or someone bought them for him and they didn't fit they looked as though they had ever been worn.

Nice shoes, do they go with your suit?
Goodwill is a great place.
