The Bargain Box reached out for my help boosting awareness. To be honest, I’ve never known much about the place. I was pleasantly surprised by the pics they posted to Facebook this fall.
The shop is run by volunteers out of the parish hall of St. Mark’s Episcopal Church at 27 Main Street. It sells “recycled” clothing, shoes and accessories (no jewelery) for Men, Women, Teens, and kids.
If you’re looking for new scarves, gloves and hats as the weather turns chilly, it looks like a great place to shop for a bargain. They are also boasting cocktail wear and holiday dresses. For the holiday coming up much sooner – Halloween – they’re showing costumes and useful accessories.
But it’s not just for “dress up”. They also shared pics of casual wear, including Patriots fan gear.
You can click on thumbnails below to see some of their recently pictured goods.
You can check out their Facebook page for more pics. Better yet, swing by during the store’s hours to check it out.
