I think my friend was just saying that it seems like a disconnect for us to be asking for money when we're still spending a bit of what we do have on non-essentials. So I don't think she was actually disapproving of thrift stores, but on buying things I don't need. But I save us SO MUCH via other things, vastly outweighing what I spend, that it's not really a disconnect at all. But since I don't really mention what we've cut back on or all we save money on, I can see how one might get a little bit of a bad taste in their mouth. Instead of weekly pedicures, like some moms I know, I go to thrift stores every so often.
But I'm glad you understand what we're doing. Thanks for your support! =o)
