I love stopping in an shopping in my local Salvation Army, typically in the kitchen and dining areas. I'm always looking out for expensive (but beat up) knives. Cast iron (skillets, Dutch ovens) are especially common and cheap. My favorite stainless steel sautee pan came from there. And when I don't mind the effort, my totally awesome, 1970's popcorn popper came from there (although I normally just toss some kernels into a paper lunch bag and use the microwave -- no oil, no mess, no effort).
The furniture is usally not something that I'd consider, and the pieces that I would consider already seem to have "sold" signs on them!
I've never seriously considered shopping there for clothes, though. Maybe I should reconsider?
