There's nothing like a weekend of great sunny weather along with finding incredible
steals at local garage sales! What about enjoying that great sunny weather while
going on a family outing because you have already found those incredible steals
online? There are pros and cons to both online shopping and garage sale hopping.

When going to garage sales you get the interaction with other shoppers and
consigners that you won't find on the internet. Let's face it, blogging and personal
interaction cannot be compared. At garage sales you can find vintage items extremely
under-priced due to lack of knowledge of the actual value of the item. Online
consigners tend to do their research. Although garage sales can be fun it is time
consuming. For the full time working mother online shopping would be a definite
choice due to the convenience. When you are trying to juggle family time, work, and
everything else in between the last thing you want to do is squeeze a day of garage
sale shopping into your hectic schedule. If online consignment shopping is best for
you and your schedule be sure to check out Reflections of Trinity at

Reflections of Trinity began as an annual used clothing sale called the Swap-Shop,
at Trinity Chapel in the fall of 2000. Its purpose was to raise funds for our fairly
new school, Trinity Chapel Academy. Our first and subsequent sales events were
successful, so the decision was made to make it a full time venture and on September
27, 2003 we opened our doors to the public at our current location. Reflections of
Trinity sells quality used and new clothing, shoes and accessories as well as house
ware items and furniture. We have a beautiful display of jewelry and artwork and an
extensive collection of wedding dresses and formal wear. In addition to being a
retail establishment, Reflections of Trinity supports and has become a resource
center for many charitable organizations. As a retail establishment, our mission is
simple, to provide quality merchandise at a bargain price in an atmosphere of Love,
Acceptance and Forgiveness, which is the foundation message of Trinity Chapel.
