Perhaps you\u2019ve looked at the appearance and assumed it was expensive, or even looked at one price tag and turned the other way. The truth is, though, there are a lot of great items I\u2019ve bought from there that have not hurt my wallet.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">This store sells a lot more than it may seem at first glance; decor, clothing, jewelry, shoes, antiques and more are sold within this small shop. While the options of items obviously vary, the surprising part is that the prices do as well. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cOur stuff is mostly new,\u201d commented employee Teresa Hutchinson. \u201cBut we also have hand picked consignment from people that the owner chooses.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The store is layed out in a fashion where the newer items are more towards the front, and at the back of the store, you find the lower priced, used items. The used items vary anywhere between clothing, shoes, decor and even jewelry. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">From the back of the store, I\u2019ve found many of my favorite items. I found a high quality mini dress that has quickly become my favorite, and it cost me only $14. This is less than you\u2019d pay at most other stores, and the quality is better. On top of that, I\u2019ve also found my favorite cropped hoodie and a cute jean shirt \u2014 all of which were $25 or less. So, once again, about the same price or less than you\u2019d pay at other stores.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">While this store does offer some cheap prices, there are also some pieces that can get pretty spendy. For instance, I was looking at a jacket that I was interested in, and the price tag read \u201c$128\u201d \u2014 however, that is the highest price I\u2019ve seen yet.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Overall, the biggest takeaway is that the boutique really does offer more college-friendly prices than I originally realized. All it takes is a little bit of digging and a good eye. They call it The Find for a reason, so go take a look around and see what you can discover.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Contact the author at chealy16@wou.edu<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Photo by: Paul F.
