Thrift Store Shopping: Economical or White Trash?
I used to turn my nose up at thrift stores. It was like a huge garage sale for some organization's profit. Used everything.

But then I started losing a lot of weight. It was pointless to pay full price for brand new clothes whenever I'd shrink out of them in about a month or two anyway. I decided to give thrift stores a chance.

I'm glad I did. You know, you may have to look a little longer, but you can really find some hidden gems!

What say you? Are you a thrift store shopper, or do you view yourself as being above it?

With bedbugs becoming a problem again I'd advise against buying used furniture unless you know where it came from. You don't want to bring that nightmare into your home.

Refurbishing along with disinfecting can handle that. I dunno if I'd ever bother with a mattress though.

No, I know bed bugs are impossible. I wasn't thinking of just them. I would think you can tell if a piece has bed bugs right there though.

Wife shops at Plato's Closet regularly. It's pretty common for her to get name brand stuff with original tags still attached.

Love thrift shopping.

Or more apt, I love my fiancé going thrift shopping, because then she spends less and gets more, and TBH all I care about is the bottom line.

I enjoy getting interesting plates, glasses, utensils and kitchenware from thrift stores. Good bargains there. Home furnishings too.

Clothes? Most of it I'm gonna pass on, sorry.
