If you want to sell your clothes, you might as well give them away on the street -- it would be faster! They set specific days for donation drop-offs, but somehow they're never accepting donations because they don't hire enough staff -- mostly just family members and high school kids running the store. They even put up a big, dirty sign cutting off drop-off times just 45 minutes into the scheduled day. Honestly, I'm so tired of driving all the way here just to be disappointed. What used to be a dope store and great experience is now absolutely the worst. If you want to sell your stuff, go to Clifton Park instead -- their store is way better.

In my efforts to downsize, I've been making some donations to the Salvation Army on Central Avenue…read morein Colonie. I like this facility. It's larger than many of the other locations. It's open on most days. They accept donations around the back. Due to staffing limitations they explained that donations of household goods must be dropped off before 11am on weekdays. They accept clothing donations throughout much of the day. They move a lot of clothing. Most of the staff is genuinely nice and helpful. I discovered that this center is also a good place to find cool, vintage glassware, especially from the 1960s. I love glassware. So while I make donations, I also pick up some fascinating etched stemware. Most don't match. It's hard to find sets but I can't beat the price which is 79 cents per glass. I also picked up some cute vintage dessert glasses at $1.99 apiece. I must sell or give away more than I purchase in order to downsize. The rule of de-cluttering is that you must donate or sell an old item before you buy a "new" one. The items at the Salvation Army are not generally new, but it is about people helping people and you can find some cool stuff.

What can I say, I like to be fancy sometimes, and this Capital Region boutique always has exactly…read morewhat I'm looking for, even before I know what it is I'm looking for, ya know what I mean? This shop offers an entirely different shopping experience than we're used to in the Capital Region. Instead of rummaging through the racks at the big box or off-price stores, shopping at Fancy Schmancy is like the Cadillac of shopping experiences: pretty much one-stop shopping for all your fancy outfit needs, with attentive and sweet sales associates helping you find what you're looking for, minus the crowds and the parking and the other headaches that come with shopping at places like the mall. Fancy Schmancy is popular on the high school prom circuit (and rightfully so!); however, this shop is so much more than prom dresses and ball gowns - it's one of my favorite places to shop when I'm looking for something a little fancier than usual, so if/when you need something for a special occasion, you should definitely give this place a try! From black tie weddings to causal holiday parties, and I've always felt like a million bucks while wearing anything I've ever purchased from this shop, like the perfect cocktail dresses for my sister's December rehearsal dinner and black tie wedding in July, or a long tweed vest with a faux fur trimmed collar and pockets outlined with a uniform row of pearls and silver beads for a casual holiday party, I've found the perfect threads to wear for any occasion. And it's not just the clothes, either. Fancy Schmancy has a beautiful display and selection of jewelry/costume jewelry to accessorize with, not to mention trendy hair pieces, like top knot and Renaissance style headbands, sparkly bobby pins, and the latest craze: jumbo flip clips. I actually picked up a pair of jumbo flip clips adorned in pearls to wear to the holiday party with the faux fur vest (I was getting a blow out so why not be extra fancy, right?) and what started an impulse buy at the register turned into my new favorite hair accessory! They have a really fun social media feed (@fancyschmancycouture) and true story: one time last summer I raced over there after I saw a really cool newspaper print jumper in their Instagram Stories, because it was the perfect outfit to wear to an event I had that weekend. So if anyone doubts the power of social media, I'm a good case study. They have a good price point overall - some things can be a little on the higher end (the fancier cocktail dresses and pieces in that department), but their casual wear is pretty reasonable, and it's definitely boutique quality and selection over the mass produced stuff you see on the racks virtually everywhere else. Social media is a great way to keep up with their inventory and, more importantly, sales! In fact, right now until the end of the year (literally one more day) they're offering 40% off casual wear, so I'm tempted to pop in to see what last minute deals of 2019 I can snag! If you're still looking for a NYE outfit, I highly suggest you save yourself the headache and aggravation of rummaging through the racks at the mall and give this boutique a try - you might be surprised! I know I was.

Great retail therapy at Talbots today with my daughter…read more This store is one of only five Talbots clearance stores in country, so we are lucky to have it closeby. Clearance stores --unlike outlets-- sell excess original stock from Talbots retail stores and Talbots catalog sales. Whereas, outlets sell a lot of items made only for sale at the outlets and never sold in Talbots retail stores. Almost everything today was an extra 80% off already reduced prices. Wow! But, there are no returns permitted, so use the very nice dressing room. This large store is well organized into misses, petites, and plus sizes sections. Plus there are displays of shoes, scarves, handbags, and jewelry. The racks and turnstiles are kept pristine by the helpful, conscientious employees. My daughter found classic shorts in white and navy at only $10. each plus a bathing suit cover. I bought four pieces for only $69. after 80% extra taken off already reduced prices, two full zip jackets and two tops that I will wear starting now. I have worn Talbots brand clothing for decades. It is well made and fits well. It washes well and maintains its shape. Parking is great. No rest room.

I'll come back and check it out again to see if I can strike gold, but it's definitely hit or miss. I was looking for a more formal summer dress and while they had several at great prices as low as $20, I didn't like any of the patterns or cuts. Note the store is kind of geared towards the older crowd but they also have more traditional/ classic pieces that could work for any age.
