    I would only add a couple of things: If I can’t get there right when they open, I always check the fitting rooms and hang-back bars. Just this week, while waiting for a friend who was trying on, I noticed a sweater hanging on someone’s cart. Sure enough they hung it on the put-back rack and I snagged it. $1 American!

    Most of the thrift stores here have days when they run a certain color tag at a super-low price. On Thursdays, the Salvation Army has a tag for 10 cents. It pays to learn the routine.

    Don’t forget, Mr Bargain Queen makes coffee.
