The most populous (and popular) states in the Union - California and New York - are in yellow. Both are notorious for their high cost of living. In a few years, I anticipate that the differences between these states and the majority of others (in red) will be even steeper. Something must be done!
So glad I found Ollie's. A way to stretch the bucks. Good Will has stores that are helpful as well.
Goodwill Outlet stores for fun and thrift.
