I've begun buying things from Goodwill and 2nd hand sites off of the Internet lately. Not so much to save money (well....Yeah, to save money) but also in an effort to reuse things that are already out there.

I am sort of on a mission to break the cycle of buying cheap junk from China, on borrowed money, and then tossing it into a landfill a few short years later.

IMHO, Wal-Mart was the prime mover in driving us off the financial cliff. Not everyone agrees with me.
