costumes for 5-10 shekels a piece. Huge box full of weird Purim ties. There are used Kallah gowns for dressing up like angels. Funky colored skirts and shirts for 5 shekels ( cheapest source of fabric I know of for stapling on to create specific costumes).</span><br><span style="font-family: 'PrimaSans BT,Verdana,sans-serif'; font-size: 12px;">There is also a very decent variety of nice clothing for women and girls and boys too. For example I spotted a genuine black shearling jacket in size medium women, a lovely plum silk banana republic cardigan in size large, size 16 boys blue and black pants etc. </span><br style="font-family: 'PrimaSans BT,Verdana,sans-serif'; font-size: 12px;"><span style="font-family: 'PrimaSans BT,Verdana,sans-serif'; font-size: 12px;">I just felt I needed to share this wonderful resource for good quality shmatas and designer clothing. </span><br style="font-family: 'PrimaSans

I came away with beautiful merchandise for a fraction of a fraction of the cost. The gmach has improved itself significantly over the years. There is currently a large variety of current and stylish good quality women and children's clothing for only 5 shekels a piece. I suggest saving money by purchasing good quality clothing here and give tzedaka with some of your savings.<br> Some examples of my purchases for only 5 shekels each (everything in like new condition to satisfy picky teen):<br> Beautiful children's place
skirts<br> Cashmere sweater from Express<br> Black sleeveless top from Tahari<br> There are beautiful sweaters in all sizes for the upcoming cooler weather<br> The gmach is much cleaner and better organized than it has been in the past.<br> <b>Nechama Tovey</b><br> ***Seems to be RBSA's best kept secret! Shoshana Lepon runs a second hand clothing store (for ladies, teens, children and babies) from her home on 40 Sorek, and I think it is a tremendous service to the community. There are a great many in the community who are not poor, and earn a living, but there is not cash available to clothe the entire family every year with regular store bought clothing. There is a solution! It is possible to dress well by finding high quality, good condition items (I found a pleated wool skirt imported from Europe, and brands such as Jones New York, Talbots, Lauren, Lands End, and many more) in a thrift shop<b> at
5- 20 NIS per item!. </b> </div> <div class="yiv1517915013MsoNormal" style="">I'm talking proper winter coats, skirts, dresses, tops, sweaters, jackets, some shoes, brand names, from Israel, USA, and Europe. Although it is a tremendous service to the community, it is run as a business, where the profits are used towards the owner's livelihood. That means that it is organized and cared for in a professional way, spacious, organized, tidy, clean, and pleasant, more than one might get in a gemach manned by volunteers. Not to knock volunteer gemachs- I was also well impressed by the Shemesh Shop, but I am just amazed at the large selection, high quality, and amazing bargains at Lepon's. She is also pleasant and friendly, and not pushy. <br> <b>Leora Farb</b></div> <div class="yiv1517915013MsoNormal" style=""><span style="font-size:14pt;"> </span></div>
