Spring is definitely here in Northern California with blue skies, flowers everywhere, and soft warm breezes reminding us that the summer sunshine is about to blaze. Have you stowed away your warm winter things yet? Maybe you’re doing some spring cleaning and have items to donate to your local thrift store. The Arc Store is your go-to for fab and cheap used clothing outfits under $20 for all the fun occasions you have planned now that the weather is great and the school year is almost over!

Think about how much extra cash you will have for cold lattes and road trips if you buy all of your great new/recycled clothing from the Arc Store. Clothing options have definitely expanded now that more families are becoming really conscious about donating and repurposing goods they have outgrown. Finding fab and cheap clothing has never been so much fun. And there are so many other types of items to be found at the Arc Store. Add to those new outfits affordably priced jewelry, handbags, beach bags, scarves and hats, shoes, and all kinds of accessories for under $20.

Planning on wearing your newfound used clothing to fun spring activities? The Arc Store has supplies for a wide variety of outings and activities. Check out our stores for gently used picnic baskets, bicycles, fishing poles, bright tablecloths and throw pillows, patio decorations, art supplies, books and craft ideas for the kids. 

DIY projects personally made with repurposed and restored items found at the Arc second hand stores make thoughtful gifts for graduation, wedding, Mother’s Day, Father’s Day and just for fun day! All this and stuff you never expected, can be found on your second hand store shopping trip. Why not make an afternoon of it by selecting lots of great fab and cheap outfits for yourself for the ones you love?  

When you shop at one of the three Arc Stores in Butte County you can shop guilt-free (no buyer’s remorse with Arc Store prices) and you’ll be doing a good deed by recycling while supporting a great local non-profit. Come on…we know you want to get a cute sundress and sandals, at least!

So much to choose from, so many styles and colors and brands and well, so many new looks for such a small cash investment. Hard to resist taking a peek inside and shopping around? Used clothing never seemed so appealing. You know, we even have loads of prom dresses and accessories. And not the kind your grandma would wear either. But actually, we do have vintage looks that your grandma would have worn, if retro happens to be your fab style. Maybe you haven’t quite found your own summer style yet, or are in transition. Used clothing finds are a cheap and fun way to try out lots of new looks without breaking the budget.

I think that’s what’s the most fun about fab and cheap used clothing from a non-profit thrift store like the Arc Stores – the ability to re-create myself for an occasion, or a season, or whatever, without the guilt I always feel when I spend a bunch on “frivolous” purchases. Being thrifty and environmentally responsible can be an amazingly fun trip as well, especially when the shopping trip is at the Arc Stores. Hope to see you there making the most of your family’s spring and summertime clothing budget!
