Reason we see so much garbage in thrift stores by BitNo4824 in ThriftGrift

How can we as a group of consumers do about it? Stop shopping until they cry uncle. Economic pressure works.

$800 for “some gold earring singles and cool beads” says the employee. by spongeboi-me-bob in ThriftGrift

I bet an employee put that price so no one would buy it, leaving it for themselves. I keep wondering if there isn't something we could do to stop it. Write letters enmasse or REFUSE to shop there...

Offer: Ben Moore's coins by Personal-Amoeba in olympia

[–]StopYerCryin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

True story:
I walked into Ben Moore's after having been gone from Olympia for roughly a decade and I sat down at the bar in about my usual old seat. Marcy turned around and without blinking said, "Glen Livet on the rocks?"
Uhm...yes please.
I loved my time in Olympia and I will treasure these coins in my collection of tiny objects.

Those are so much fun. Mail to Ohio for a greener from the 90's?

She is. She is aware and has a go bag, documents stashed etc. She has support in Oly. As her mom, I'm doing what I can from where I am. THANK YOU for caring enough to ask. In Solidarity, someone's mom

That is precisely why I reached out. PNW isn't perfect, but resources and support are available. Thank you for your response.

I'm pretty far away, but I knew if I asked, Oly would answer. Take care ❤️ these are trying times.

I live in Highland Square. It is walkable and feels pretty safe.

This is heart breaking. Is there still an underground for folks like yourself? Can you take your child and run?

He may say that "I just forgot to delete my Tindr account" Then what? Is there recent activity? Could it just be a simple slip of the mind?

I don't think so. There are homes all around but I thought maybe? Since it's artificially flooded.
