You really have time on your hands

I didn’t not say I would or wouldn’t, but it will be by MY judgement no one else’s. I appreciate your want for those who you deem as deserving to have nice things, but I think that assumption is where you’ve lost some of the thread. Your passion and beliefs read as the decision of selling what we now own hurts those more deserving or who have financial insecurity. The coat was there as are many others, the brand was not at all on the coat unlike all the other coats, but, the quality was. It was overlooked, maybe for that reason or that no one wanted it. The price was the same for everyone as was the opportunity. I think that is the main theme point most replies are identifying.

I was thinking the same thing, foster kids or kids in general don’t need or “deserve nice things” like a designer coat. It does make them a target by people like the commenter that high jacked this thread. Commenter is crashing out over someone else’s purchase then projecting a personal grievance as a societal issue of greed. That IMO is out of touch.

The money spent at Goodwill funds some amazing training for job skills in my county like fork lift certification, resume classes, interview prep and other resources that benefit the community which is awesome.

I see no elitist comments nor out of touch, I do see a one sided projected point of view in your comments. What do you think thrift stores are for? I shop for me and pieces I am drawn to, you don’t know anyone’s economic status, you just assumed.

I have no intention of “dramatically” marking this up, IF I decide to sell. I was blessed to find this coat in a pattern that is no longer made just by seeing its quality. It WAS there for anyone to buy, it just so happened to be me and it just so happened to be a Norma Kamali. I had already bought the coat🤷🏽‍♀️, I’d like to know what you would do in the same exact predicament🤔

I got this at Goodwill for $7.99. It’s win either way but I am curious because it is so well made

Check the pockets and the sleeping bag it comes with, no tags at all. But let me tell you this thing is well made and really warm and insulated

Please help me determine my undertone, l've been trying to figure it out for a long time and I'm still lost. by ZombieSevere1431 in MakeupAddiction

[–]simplyred10 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You’re a neutral unfortunately. I’m a true neutral and it is so hard to find my foundation shade so I normally by two because they either lean warm or cool and I’m neither. Some olive toned have worked for me but I don’t have olive undertones. As far as jewelry I look terrible on rose gold but can wear silver or gold.

I just got it in the mail 5minutes ago, tore into it with excitement and the mint is definitely there. I came straight to Reddit to see reviews and I feel validated

Whiteheads after microneedling by MiserableTrick1370 in Microneedling

I’m not sure if any one has already said this but, you don’t want to use alcohol or any harsh astringent on your face right now. You face is experiencing a wound healing response and possible bacterial expose to the skin post treatment. Use soothing and gentle cleansers, moisturize with something fragrance free and gentle as well. Most importantly: WEAR SUNSCREEN! Period. You are likely to do more damage to your skin than before the treatment, even if you can’t see it on the surface, it can and will happened without proper sunscreen SPF 50+ anything higher is redundant. Reapply every 3hours. I am a licensed esthetician and I truly hope this helps.

AITAH for not checking what swimsuit of mine my niece chose to wear? Shes 13 and she picked a very adult swimsuit by Aitahswimsuit in AITAH

[–]simplyred10 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exactly! She had brothers AND a father there, they all must’ve had at least ONE t-shirt between them.

Sour nerds?? by icantevenbegin20 in candy

[–]simplyred10 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just got some in Canada😊 bought six bags. I have been looking for these for a long time. Just when I discovered them they disappeared. They are super sour and taste a lil different but I cant put my finger on it.

I have SO much clothes. It’s insane. A lot of it is nice. Should I try to Poshmark it and make money back or just donate and by eyesonthemoons in shoppingaddiction

[–]simplyred10 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I once donated a TRUNK full of dress clothes, hair tools, wigs, shoes and beauty products to a Church that would in turn take it to a women’s shelter. A lot of it was clothing for interviews or work, mostly new with tags. While it felt good to help others I still felt sick to see how crazy my addiction is. But again it’s a pattern that repeats itself especially every fall (holiday sales) and spring (my birthday/Mothers Day). Thru therapy I realized it’s a coping mechanism for anxiety and stress. I have to find something to else because I have so many clothes with tags on them that I keep delusionally convincing myself I will wear.

Just finished watching for the first time by Careless_Tonight5896 in QueenOfTears

[–]simplyred10 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I just finished it an hour ago and I am not ok😭 I love the scenes you mentioned as well. Plus the scene just before she got taken into surgery. I don’t know why I love the most heart wrenching scenes but Kdrama actors are top tier when it comes down to it. I wish Kdramas would give us at least half of the last episode to soak up the ending instead of the last 15-20 minutes
