Shopping At Home To Save Money


Have you ever looked around your house and in your closets, and then had the thought, “How did I acquire all this stuff?” It is probably safe to say that quite a few people have. It is also most likely that quite a few people will do some type of Spring cleaning or switch out their clothing with the seasonal change.

Times, oh my, they have changed. People, who once had the luxury of shopping for the sake of shopping, are currently no longer in that position. Even worse many folks are starting over from scratch without so much as a toaster.

A great weekend project, that will benefit you in a multitude of ways, would be to go clean out your closets and cupboards. You may find items, long forgotten but of use to you. Further those items that you find may be desperately needed by those in our community.

The Hanover Area Council of Churches is in need of clothing donations. Donations of clean, serviceable clothing are accepted Monday thru Saturday from 8:00AM - 12:30PM and the community is welcome to buy clothes each Thursday, as well as, at a monthly rummage sale which occurs on the first Saturday of each month from 9:00AM – 12:00PM. The Salvation Army is in need of household items and will pickup, free of charge.

For more information about the Hanover Area Council of Churches clothing drive please call (717) 633-6353 and for The Salvation Army pickup schedule please call (800) 728-7825.
