Savings achieved
Instead of letting the tear grow without knowing what to do, we simply fix it.
It allows me to prevent the tear from getting bigger. And we don’t have to buy a sweater.
THE clothing budget would be huge if we don’t fix the little snags every time.
By improvising as a seamstress for 5 short minutes, you make considerable savings. And that makes all the difference.
And then what a shame to drop your favorite little sweater for that, don’t you think?
I have already saved a few like that and I am delighted.
But if you prefer to get rid of it, do not hesitate to resell it in a deposit sale.
