TWO 1/2 price days at CAP thrift this week

Both Friday for Chinese New Year and Sunday for football spouses, CAP thrift store  is having 1/2 price days.

They had a record breaking month in December for sales: more customers means more people hearing about the store and so donations continue to increase.  You can help by spreading the word.

 There are specials every day; stop in to get the February calendar.

 There are items in every category from kitchen to designer clothes, shoes, books, art work and fun things outside!


The three pieces of furniture shown here just came in so haven't even been priced. They are featured to show the quality of items that get donated to benefit homeless pets. (A few things are not ever half price and furniture has to be in for 30 days to be considered.)

Extend the holiday "layaway payoff" generosity

So it is way too cold today to be looking at Prom dresses; let's think of it as planning ahead.(The nice thing about this blog is that you are armchair shopping anyway.) One purpose of this post is to help some senior girls save money on the Prom or even enable some girls to go who might not be able to afford it otherwise. If you know of such a senior, you could buy her dress, hire her for some small jobs that need doing to buy one or share this with her. 

This chiffon is elegant in its simplicity-not quite orange, not quite red. Size 12

40.00

A second reason is to appeal to the young girls who like the "green" or recycling part of resale.The CAP thrift has several 1/2 price days each month,so they can save even more. Its not too soon to plan for May.This strapless cocktail length dress

is custom made and only 15.00. size 14

The ice blue dress labeled a large.The close up shows elegant beading. 50.00

This strapless cocktail length dress is almost purple with black shimmering tones. The top(below) is overlaid with black lace. Size 14 30.00 (I have not been able to move the 2 views together) 

This cocktail length white sheath(below left) has lightly colored touches on the top and spaghetti straps It is only 30.00 and is  a size 11.

This stunningly simple navy column dress has a matching textured jacket(below right) and is new Size 16  50.00

close up of taffeta strapless

1/2 price day SATURDAY and SUNDAY at CAP thrift store!

 Wow, what a sale! Be in line at 10 am Sat to start saving money and support shelter animals like Peanut here and Sweetie below.

1/2 off on just about everything in the store and did you know they even have dressing rooms?

Items come in every day, it's exciting to see the new things. It's also exciting to watch folks when they find something they have been looking for or are surprised with a good deal on something they hadn't even thought about. Become a regular, we like them!

Peanut above is still waiting for his permanent home, he is about 6 lbs and has 2 less than perfect knees but gets around just fine. An angel vet donated his neuter, thankfully.

Sweetie the pit mix truly fits her name and just got adopted at CAP. Dr Randlett at Kingsland Blvd Animal Clinic donated her spay, our many thanks to her.

Your donations and shopping at the CAP thrift store support not only dogs, but cats, birds, guinea pigs, lots of rabbits and other pets at Citizens for Animal Protection.

Beautiful furniture in year end donations at CAP thrift store

There is a wide variety of furniture styles and prices currently at the thrift and variety is one of the main reasons we shop!


This loveseat is a modest 40.00



Isn't this table stunning? The bottom shelf is a heavy mirror and the top glass is also very heavy. The donors said its original cost was 1500.00, it's 600.00 at the thrift. Not a scratch anywhere and its quality shows with a closeup view.



This desk is only 80.00 and would pair nicely with the oval table below.



This lovely dresser has a mirror surrounded by wood attached to it; a better picture can be sent by request. I can visualize this also being repurposed as a desk and the mirror mounted on a wall nearby. 125.00



This dresser/jewelry  topper has been relisted as I gave the wrong price-it is only 60.00.





This picture has been enlarged to show the neat work done on the edges and to highlight the wheels! The table is only 80.00



The thrift store has only 2 multi, multi,(LOTS) tasking employees; a dedicated cadre of volunteers also puts in many hours keeping up with all of the incoming and outgoing items.

The thrift store is open 7 days a week as well.

Ellen is the expert on hanging pictures and Olga does many of the specialized displays and is the color coordinator. Keith helps with many of the heavier items and assembly. Volunteers are always welcome, a variety of tasks are needed.

Please share this blog with your buds. The primary source of sharing the blog has been Facebook, so please share there as well as any other way in which you interact with folks. Please also let them know there are SEVEN 1/2 price days in December; almost everything in the store excluding furniture.

All proceeds benefit the animals at CAP, which is now at I 10 and Barker Cypress.
