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.

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
