Trinity Thrift Shop Open 12/5
This particular Trinity Thrifty was asleep on the job and forgot to send out the all important reminder!!!!! DON’T MISS TRINITY THRIFT SHOP’S NEXT SALE ON FRIDAY, DECEMBER 5TH FROM 8:30AM TO 1PM!!!
She was too busy putting up her own holiday decorations to remind you that the Trinity Thrift shop is a great place to get some yourself, along with carefully selected linens, clothing, china, or who knows what else!!
Did you see the Tyco HO train cars? What about all of the bagged Christmas ornaments? Going to a party? Stop by the designer corner for a new-to-you outfit and Treasures for some bling!!!
We take pride in the fact that all proceeds benefit charities in our community, such as City Team, Chester Eastside, Pathways PA, the Chester Children’s Chorus, and the Seamen’s Church Institute, among many others.
Donations are usually accepted Thursdays (8:30am to 11:30am) and on sale days but, exceptionally, we won’t accept donations tomorrow so we can go party with Dottie Jean in honor of her 100th birthday!!!
The Thrift Shop is located at 301 N Chester Rd, Swarthmore (entrance off the circle drive on College Ave).
Follow us on Instagram @Trinity.Thrift.Shop for more updates. Don’t forget to share this email with friends and family! ‘Tis the season for sharing after all.

Looking for Short-Term Stay or House-Sitting Opportunity (Jan 16–31)
Hi everyone,
My girlfriend and I are looking for a place to stay between January 16 and January 31. If anyone is looking for a house sitter during this time or would be willing to host us, we would be very grateful.
We are flexible, so any shorter stay within this window would also work well. We are responsible, quiet, and happy to help take care of plants, pets, or general upkeep while you are away.
Please feel free to reach out if this could be a good fit. Thank you!

Selling a Chelsea Cottage Dollhouse in great used condition. New price is $94.99 on KidKraft website. A few of the original pieces are missing but it comes with other bonus pieces. See pictures for details. Asking $45. Email if interested.
Pet / House Sitting
Looking for someone to care for our cat and dog over the winter break! They are both very sweet and pretty easy pets.
The dates would be from December 21 to January 5. We live very close to campus. We are hoping to have someone stay at the apartment since the cat is more comfortable with that, but if you wanted to come twice a day to walk the dog and check on the cat that would be fine too!
We are offering $350! Let me know if you are interested!
Scaffolding for sale/rent?
I am a sculpture student looking to source some scaffolding for a project. Can be in complete sets or not. If you have any for sale or rent, please reach out as soon as possible.
Willing to negotiate on price.

Part-Time Companion/Helper Needed for 57-Year-Old Male with Myotonic Muscular Dystrophy
We are looking for a compassionate, easy-going, mature individual to assist a 57-year-old man who has Myotonic Muscular Dystrophy, a progressive condition that affects his mobility. While he primarily uses a walker, he gets around fairly well and enjoys going out for local lunches and dinners. He lives a short distance from campus at Strath Haven Condos.
The ideal candidate would be able to work between 4 to 6 hours over the course of one or two days each week, though we’re flexible; the time and day each week could also be changed depending on your schedule. If you’re gentle, kind, and enjoy engaging in conversation, particularly about travel and family, please reach out to us. We are hoping to find someone who is interested in building a long-term, supportive relationship over the course of several years though we understand that the summers would likely be an exception.
This position offers $30/hour, with all meals at restaurants covered. Having a car at your disposal would be helpful though not absolutely necessary.
