Thirty and Thrifty

$15.00

After a breakup and a financial free fall, Claire rebuilds her life one thrift store purchase at a time—until she finds a note tucked inside a secondhand blazer that changes everything. Warm, witty, and deeply human, Thirty and Thrifty is a story about second chances, shared grace, and the surprising ways we patch ourselves back together—with a little help from strangers and $4.99 miracles.
