Thrift Store Shopping

What days do you guys tend to find the best items? We used to go on Wednesdays to the Goodwill here, sometime in the afternoon. They'd get a good amount of the new shipments out. But that seems to have changed.

Wednesdays are always the big sale days here also.
 
Today I took my cousin to the airport so I got to make a trip to Good Will. I found 3 good hardback books, a new cane (I use a cane), and a cloth collapsible tube (it works somewhat like a nylon car window shade) for my dog to play in/around. I got change back from a five dollar bill.
 
I went to some charity shops last week and found 3 books (one was a hardback and nearly new) and a CD for a grand total of £3 :jump:
 
That's a good point fadedone about going after the holidays. I never thought of that. I need a coffee maker. Maybe I'll find one next January. :)

Since I mostly go to our two smaller thrift shops now, they put things out on a consistent basis. I do find that I wait until after the 10th of each month because the thrift shops are more crowded because people get their checks and then go thrift shopping. I find this especially true of the little downtown shop we have. I find this true for shopping in general. Stores are less crowded after the tenth.
 
I went yesterday to the Hospice Thrift Shop to drop off some books... I got them there.. now they can sell them again!! I found a really cute summer top and a pair of pants for $1 each. :D
