Amazing Discovery

We hit upon a gold mine today in the form of a place called the Waste Not Center. It is located on Fisher Rd. in Columbus and is open every Thursday from 2P - 6P as well as every second Saturday from 9A - 11:30A. This is the description from their website: "The Waste Not Center receives donations from individuals and businesses that would otherwise be discarded and makes them available to teachers, artists and non-profit organizations at no charge other than a small membership fee." A 2 year membership for me as a homeschool teacher was only $50. I am free to go any time the doors are open and take as much as I want. This is what I came away with today...all for FREE!!!!
