Nifty Thrifties

I shopped at this shop about a month ago. Cute clothes and accessories and the back sale room can’t be beat. When I went to the counter to pay, the owner ran my credit card and said she got some kind of error message and needed to run my card again. It wasn’t until about a week later when I got my card statement that I noticed she double charged my card. I happened to be near her shop a couple days later and stopped in to let her know. She seemed rather unconcerned, took my info, said she might give me a store credit, which she didn’t, and I didn’t want, and then never refunded the money or called. I called a week later and spoke to a very friendly employee who stated that the owner said I’d have to come back to the store and give her a copy of my credit card bill. I refused, since the bill is personal info. Surely she can see from her own records that she double charged me. So, now she has kept my money, not apologized or called me back personally, and I, unfortunately, won’t shop there again. Very disappointed that she didn’t choose to do the right thing. It’s a small amount of money, but that really isn’t the point.

I realize I am loving and a borderline addicted to consignment shops. No, Shopping Anonymous needed just yet.
This was the 1^st consignment shop I went to in the area and was delightfully pleased. In this shop I mostly find a few tops, jeans and handbags that I enjoy. What is most ironic is that I have been there several times buying things for my family & friends who live out of town. The power of a smartphone with a camera and texting has turned me into a personal shopper.
In this shop my favorite items are their handbags and tops. They have items that are at all ends of the designer spectrum, which makes it affordable to many people.
