What to Do in the Woo: Shopping

Welcome!

What to do in the Woo is a blog for Clark Students by a Clark student. I love Clark, but it took a little while for me to warm up to Worcester and I know that I'm not the only one. When I was given an assignment in Advanced Professional Communications to make a semester long project, I thought I would create a blog about things to do in Worcester. So if your looking to try something new alone or with a group, your parents are visiting, or you want to find a fun place to take a date, check out my blog! If you have a few minutes, please comment and take the polls. Any suggestions are more than welcome!

Savers

I had never heard of Savers before coming to Clark, but it is a chain so you might have been to one before. It’s a pretty big and well organized thrift store, so I think it’s worth checking out.

Goodwill

I went to Goodwill for the first time a couple of weeks ago to look for a Halloween costume, and they had a lot of great stuff. The window display, which is something that has never really caught my eye at a consignment shop, was a very well done depiction of a scene from Sleepy Hollow made from things donated to the store, and the front of the store was dedicated to items perfect for Halloween. Though there were a few odd items – such as an apron from Boston Market complete with nametag, my friend was also able to find the perfect dog suit for her Wilfred costume. The trip was a success and I will definitely be going to Goodwill again the next time I’m in the mood for shopping (which happens often) and don’t have a lot of money to spare (usually the case).
