Popping Tags

Hello Fellow Tag Poppers!!!!

Welcome to my blog about the art of thrift shopping.  I'm calling it popping tags 'cuz it's just so dang catchy.  Macklemore inspired me and I hope he is cool with that!

I looked up popping tags and was surprised to learn that it is considered to be the act of removing tags from merchandise you just purchased.  However, I work retail and we consider popping tags to be the actions of a thief prepping merchandise before they attempt to steal it.  Any time you find a tag on the floor in a store, it was a potential theft.  Even though, the reality is that tags sometimes...just ... fall...off!

I'm looking forward to this blog journey, because I am a maven and this is a showcase for my maven ways.  If you question what a maven is, then read The Tipping Point.  It was from that book that I learned that my desire to share information (without attempting to gain anything in return) was a 'thing'. I like to share information and I will share information with whomever wants it.  I am not offended by someone who is not interested in what I have to say.

So to get back to popping tags... My plan is to share what I have learned over the years about thrift shopping.  I have had some hits and some misses.  I will post some pictures of both.  I also have a brilliant plan to grow some money as I venture down this blogging road.  I will share this plan.  It may work, it may not.  But I am up for it.  Are you in?
