No need for embarassment. Thrifting is awesome fun, cheap entertainment, and a good way to supply yourself with the things you really need. I wish we had better thrift stores where I live. I can always find awesome furniture, but subpar clothing. The best I can hope for concerning clothing are good yard sales and consignment. It appeals to the greenie in me. (: Yea for thift shopping!

I was just telling my mom that I think there are enough baby items in this world that there don't need to be any new created!
