Right now, plenty of graduates are preparing to embark on an exciting new path. This turning point brings nervousness, high hopes, and, sadly, it often also means a lack of funds. It isn’t easy to start over, so saving money becomes especially important during times like these. That’s one of the reasons why I love supporting Goodwill®!

Goodwill®: One Stop Shopping
Do you know what my favorite thing about Goodwill is? Well, other than their mission, of course. My favorite thing, after their dedication to providing services that enable people from all backgrounds to obtain and maintain economic independence and an increased quality of life, is the fact that I can find pretty much anything I’m looking for in their stores. Goodwill is the ultimate one stop shopping experience. They have everything!
Bringing The Outdoors In
Although it isn’t officially summer yet, it certainly feels like it. But during these early warm months, a day of rain can really interrupt those long-awaited outdoor plans. I feel particularly annoyed when there is a streak of beautiful weather during the week and then, when my day off rolls around, it’s dreary. To combat those rainy day blues, I’ve thought up some ways to bring the outdoors in and fill my time with summer vibes even if I can’t actually be outside (well, without getting drenched, that is).

Customize Your Thrifting Experience
One of the things I love most about shopping at Goodwill® is the way it encourages me to think outside of the box. I always try to keep an open mind about the items that grace Goodwill’s aisles, and it looks like I’m not alone! Today I’ve got a great collection of refashions from others who, like me, try not to feel limited by the intended purpose or look of an item.
Get Outside With Goodwill®
Where I live in New Hampshire, it’s finally warm enough to spend long periods of time outside! The ice is disappearing from our lakes, birds are chirping, and drab fields are gaining an ever-so-faint tint of green. We’ve waited long enough, so I’m about ready to dive head first into my outdoor adventures. Join me for the perfect day outside, won’t you?
Go Green and Save Green with Goodwill® This Earth Day
This Wednesday, people across the globe will be celebrating Earth Day by planting trees, picking up litter, and riding a bike to work instead of driving. But did you know that every time you shop at or donate to Goodwill you are doing a little bit to help save our Earth, too? Goodwill is an entrepreneurial leader, environmental pioneer, and social innovator of the “reduce, reuse, repurpose” practice. Just stopping into your local Goodwill on Earth Day will help you go green and save green at the same time.

Build Your Maternity Collection at Goodwill®
You know that thrilling retail therapy feeling? The excitement of making a great purchase? That feeling eluded me last fall when my growing belly screamed out for maternity-wear. Staring at big price tags on pieces of clothing that would only fit for a few months, I cringed as I made those first few maternity-wear purchases. Then, the face-palm moment struck and I realized that I could be saving money by getting some great barely-worn maternity items at Goodwill!
