    My name is only three letters as well. Close enough?

    Sounds good enough to me.

    Unless you're poor. Then I'm out.

    I'm poor as ****. But you can't really tell from my basement.

    Having grown up "poor" I know what "poor" is...and I am NOT it LOL
    but, I have a confession...I not ONLY love a great thrift store deal...but I shop at the Dollar Tree too! *gasp* Should I be seeking some sort of frugal support group? Since its apparently not getting me in with the "cool kids"... :frown:

    I can't live like this. How do I block you from my mfp's. HOW DO I DO IT

    I shop in thrift stores all the time. I've lost two pants sizes in the past few months and don't want to pay full price for "temporary" clothes. I LOVE finding a pair of jeans for $1.99! I do feel good wearing them. I always feel good saving money and still getting something "new" (new to me)!

    Yes this...and paying 50 bucks for something that cost 2 to make annoys me.

    New plan: go to expensive stores when I have gas and try on every pair of pants and fart in them. None of your clothes are safe. You're welcome.

    I like the way you think. I'm with you on this. So not only have your jeans had a poor person in them, but now they're full of poor farts. Which are basically the same as rich farts, but some people think there's a difference.

    Smells like reverse hipster in here. (only read the 1st 3 pages cause y'all talk a lot)
    Or!
    Hipsters trying to look like non-hipsters by engaging in multi-layered ironic conversation and failing horribly because hipsters. I'm not sure~

    I don't shop at thrifty stores because I have a fear that someone had died in the clothes.

    OK This^^ is the thing that is creepy to me! I shop at the mall and sometimes at Value Village. I can find some awesome name brand stuff there and WASH IT VERY WELL and have something that not every other peson in town has lol. The point is also if your losing weight, it gets expensive buying new jeans/ tops etc for every new weight u get to. As long as its washed and isnt nasty looking its good:) However I dont like the feeling I get after going through all the clothes (the dirty on your hands feeling)

    WRONG! Poor people eat taco bell...rich have actual Mexicans...Taco bell farts are worse.

    And besides you're clearly missing the point, it's not that someone POOR farted in the jeans (though their fiscal plight certainly doesn't make anything better) its that someone ELSE farted in MY jeans...

    discrimination would imply that you've been left out of something based on some sort of qualification (such as race religion or wealth etc) you have clearly not been left out of the conversation (unfortunately) as is evidenced by the fact that you have, indeed, posted. Your argument is invalid.

    bwahahahahahha...your logic means nothing to me!!!!
