25 cent sale, the luxury version

when is a 25 cent sale luxurious? When every single thing is hanging up or on a table. If you've been to our previous sales, you know what a difference this could make. Will it take all the fun out of digging for bargains if you're not on your hands and knees? We don't think so. We've just rearranged fixtures so it's not quite as messy, but it *is* still full of clothes and other items all yours for 25 cents each. We *won't* have a 25 cent sale next month, so this is the last chance at least till july.

To make room for our fashion show next month, we're also clearing out tons of furniture. So you could pick up a chair, desk, file cabinet, or shelf for 25 cents too. get there early for the best pick. we'll have it ready for you when the gates open at 11, and the rain won't slow us down this time.

kisses to you for helping to create solidarity not charity -supporting grassroots organizations working for fundamental change, keeping reuse and collective organizing going strong in austin

please pass it on, you are our only advertisers.

Treasure City will be providing materials for some exciting crafty workshops:

Treasure City Fashion Show 2008 -

Treasure City Thrift Store is now accepting entries for our 2nd Annual Recycled Fashion Show.

The Show will take place in the first half of October.

This year we are striving for an entirely recycled show. The concept is creative reuse of materials.

We are hoping that each designer can enter a collection of at least 3 outfits that are refashioned out of old clothes. Designers are highly encouraged to look for material (i.e. old clothes and accessories) at Treasure City Thrift Store.

Space is limited, so contact us with your interest soon.
