12 -- PORT PERRY STAR -- Tuesday, September 27. 1988 Second Debut providing first-class fashions in second-hand clothing Yes, all the magazines tell us, the Fall Fashion Season is here once again, dictating we all head out to clothing stores to drop a big wad of money. But who can afford to spend a pile of cash each and every time the weather takes a turn? Not many of us, that's for sure. So what can we do--just not buy clothes? Well, that's one solution. shop at Second Debut, where you can find top quality clothes at bar- gain basement prices. They're not new clothes, mind you. The people who run Second Another, happier, solution, is to Debut unabashedly admit the clothes are "previously owned", but they're also the pick of the used clothing crop, clean, pressed and ready-to-wear. : Tucked away at the back of the old creamery building (at Water and Casimir Streets in Port Per- ry), Second Debut is overflowing with bargains. A women's silky dress-up blouse, for example, costs only one dollar. One buck! Slacks to match will set you back $1.50. A top of the line child's party dress costs a whole three dollars. Now try finding those kinds of prices anywhere else! RIA Sve Shira oY a2s " = ! i : fe Ce ai pn 3 EC a §£8%¢ - ror, ver EOF dk x o' SY spt - clothes comes to $9.75.

Committee member Barb Carne- gie says the name was changed to ive the shop a new image, and to et people know the clothes are for sale to the public. She complains that many peo- ple assumed the clothes were "give-aways" to low-income fami- lies, busi that is just not true. Operation Scugog does, in fact, run a food bank out of the same location, but the clothing store operates in a different section. Funds raised from the clothes, however, support the rent for the food bank and the entire Operation Scugog project. Financially, things haven't been going so hot for the clothing store. Mrs. Carnegie says the rea- son is because most people in Scugog assume it is a "clothing bank", not a clothing store. She also says some people have a hang-up about buying used clothing--although they shouldn't, because some of the trendiest clothes shops in Toronto sell the same kind of outfits as Second Debut. She's hoping the new name will help people get over their hang- ups, and bring them in for a look at the merchandise. Clothing donations are always welcome at Second Debut; but Mrs. Carnegie says they must be in season, as there is absolutely no. room to store clothes that aren't. So at this time of year, sweat- ers, coats and warm clothing only is accepted. Items must also be clean and preferably . All sizes, and styles for all age groups are gratefully accepted. Donations aside, buyers can have a virtual field day poking through the racks at Second De- but. Real fashion finds are every- where, and as "everything old be- comes new again", the shop offers clothes you just can't find any- where else--at prices you'd be a fool to ignore. 4 ® Ontario NOTICE OF PUBLICMEETING TAKE NOTICE THAT a Public Meeting of the Liquor Licence Board of Ontario will be held at the CITY HALL, 50 CENTRE ST.
