Next Step Thrift Store: A Helping Hand for Domestic Violence Victims

Are you a bargain hunter looking to save money on clothing, household items, toys, shoes and more while also supporting a worthwhile cause? Next Step Thrift Store in Kernersville has incredibly reasonable prices (lower than Goodwill in my experience) and a huge variety of items to choose from. When I was pregnant, I found most of my maternity clothes at their store and was also able to save a lot of money on baby items by shopping their Thursday sales each week. On Thursdays, shoes, clothes and purses are 50% off, and on the last Thursday of each month, the entire store is half off! They also offer a rewards program where you earn a few cents off each time you make a purchase, so you can build up discounts that way as well.

Tickets now on sale for the Autumn at Oz festival in Beech Mountain

As someone who went to school in Kansas, I often hear Wizard of Oz jokes since that's one of the only things people seem to associate with Kansas. I found it comical that only when I moved to North Carolina did I have the opportunity to visit an Oz themed festival! This year is the 30th anniversary of this event, so if you haven't experienced it, why not bring the family for a unique celebration in the mountains this Fall? Be sure to dress in layers as it can be chilly, bring an umbrella, and bring your camera! Many guests dress up as their favorite character, so that's a fun option as well!

The Butterfly Effect store will be closing at the end of July but its impact will live on

The Butterfly Effect is a unique gift shop located in Greensboro, North Carolina. I have enjoyed perusing the crafts and gifts here on multiple occasions and speaking with Helene, so I was saddened to see their store will be closing this summer. Helene has been an inspiration to so many, and the amount of local businesses supported has been beautiful to see. She has been a pick up location for my favorite Challah bread, and there are so many other treasures in her store.

Need a free summer activity? Visit Babyland General Hospital, the birthplace of the Cabbage Patch Kids

Babyland General Hospital is a must-visit for any fan of Cabbage Patch Kids or just anyone seeking a unique roadside attraction.
