Bargain Brag- ready to be jealous??

I stopped in at a thrift store last Saturday and got some serious deals. You're gonna be jealous, so brace yourself. First- this coat was $10 but the sweet lady working said I could have it for $4!
 Isn't it beautiful?! The sleeves are 3/4 length. So classy.
The rest of this was in a fill-a-bag for $0.25!
Do you understand what I'm saying??? A bag full of clothes for a quarter!
 Love this shirt- it will be great tucked in to my new red high waisted shorts- will share soon.

 Double knit polyester dress with detachable tie- this thing fits me like a glove!
 Perfect ugly Christmas sweater, but it actually isn't ugly- I will definitely wear it next year!
This is a Tommy Hilfiger sweater. I don't think it has been worn, it still had the spare button sewn to the tag. I would have paid a quarter just for those buttons!

I stuffed 4 more shirts in there too, but they weren't as exciting as these.

Now the question is should I expand my Etsy shop to start selling vintage clothing items? I've been kicking around the idea for a while. Does anyone have any experience with doing so?

      it was all from the YMCA thrift store on the square in Seymour- a little out of the way, but if you're in the neighborhood...

    Um first of all, WHERE IS THIS THRIFT!?!!!!???????????? I want to go! That coat. And she BARGAINED!?!?!

    Next, I DO have luck with selling clothing in my booth. It doesn't move incredibly fast, but it is steady enough that I always keep it stocked. I say go for it!
