1) Yes, secondhand stores are a wonderful place to shop if you're small, because that's a lot of what gets donated, stuff that people can't wear any more because they've gained weight. (And I speak here from experience as well as observation! *g*)
2) Try Salvation Army instead of Goodwill -- and pick one that's close to an upscale area. My partner's daughter found a London Fog coat for $20 at the Salvation Army store near the Heights. Also, you'll have a shot at some of the things rich women discard just because "I've already been seen wearing that a dozen times".
