This winter do you need/want a pretty, warm scarf, sweater, coat …
… pair of gloves or hat?
Then head to this downtown spot WHERE YOU CAN BUY GREAT CLOTHING, COLLECTIBLES, VINTAGE GOODIES, EVEN FURNITURE!
Abby’s House Thrifty Gift Store
52 High St. , Worcester (across from St. Paul’s Cathedral)
Our Parlee Jones is head of Abby’s House shelter program. She gives women fleeing domestic violence a clean, safe, kind, place to live!
Abby’s gift store’s profits go 100% to FUNDING ABBY’S HOUSE WOMEN’S SHELTER!
The shop’s stuff is eclectic, cool, sometimes fantastic, always on sale FOR A SONG!
Bonus: the beautiful and sexy ICT writer (and sometimes ICT cover girl!) DORRIE MAYNARD is back working for Abby’s RUNNING THEIR STORE again! Yay! Dorrie is a wonderful person with tons of style! She can help you choose what looks awesome on you! Pick out a cute purse or necklace! Like us, Dorrie has been a HUGE ANIMAL RIGHTS GAL … forever! She has rescued so many cats and dogs – placing them in loving homes, like hers! We love Dorrie!
