Good explanation and tip.

The SA stores in the tonier suburbs around Detroit are actually very nice, especially in the northern, wealthier areas. A few years ago when I worked in that area, I got the idea to play a trick on my female manager by replacing her casual-dress jacket with an ugly used-car salesman plaid jacket from the Salvation Army. I went to five Salvation Army stores before I found such an ugly jacket at the sixth one -- because the first five had nothing but really nice, attractive, brand-name and even designer clothing.

I should add that I was not interested in bicycles at that time, so I didn't notice what they offered. Nowadays, I don't work in the northern suburbs, so I don't have much excuse to go to the Salvation Army stores up there. It would be quite a drive.
