It was a terrible waste because it was in otherwise beautiful shape , and was a hide - a - bed . An hour later I was visiting a family with a friend of mine . We were attempting to help her with furniture through the St. Vincent thrift store , but with the living room bare she and her four kids needed more than we could help with . They also were looking for a mattress .

Question: What may be the reason for her to be shopping at a Thrift Store ?
Answer: She was walking by and thought to check it out .With four kids , they need to spend cheaply ,None of the above choices .She wants to get ideas of what she wants .
