finallyME member Registered: 09/24/07 Posts: 2710 Loc: Utah	Like others have mentioned, take a trip to the local thrift store first. Look for clothing and cooking. You might find stuff for cooking, but mostly you will find clothes. After that, go to the other stores for the other stuff. _________________________ I've taken a vow of poverty.
