Save more by buying clothes at the thrift shop

Postby darkuszerx » 04 Dec 2022, 23:10

Save more by buying clothes at a thrift shop is a way that is currently a trend in my country. Many people buy used clothes by import and then sell them at a flat price between one shirt and another. Actually I don't have a problem buying these clothes, in fact sometimes there are clothes with expensive brands mixed in between, and you can get very cheap prices.

I'm even more concerned about what if the owner of the shirt previously had a problem such as a skin disease? It would be a little scary if we found out, even though the clothes had clearly been washed.

What do you think about buying used clothes at thrift shops?

As long as the items being sold are good, I don't have a problem buying them at the thrift shop

This past week, I went Christmas shopping at a local thrift store. The purchases were for men. I found 2 Claiborne dresss shirts with the orginal tags on stating $42.00. I paid $3.00 each!

I once had something worth $40 on the price tag, but I got it for $8 and I feel benefited by a very significant price difference

I have never bought used clothes through thrift shop, but I'm already interested in trying them, do you have any suggestions on what I should pay attention to when looking for things at thrift shops?

Yeah you need to get your clothes where they are cheaper but I'm good condition and money is saved.

It would be great if you could save money by buying relatively cheap clothes, but as long as I have the money I think I'd avoid buying thrift shops

I even just found out if you can get several items with a much different price margin. However, I feel a bit awkward when what I buy turns out to be clothes that have been worn by other people, is it worth it?

It's common here to sell thrift shop businesses and there's even a lot of profit to be made. But I personally wouldn't think of buying from there, unless there really was something good I could consider

Yeah i think thats a good idea. So many friends of mine like to buying clothes at the thrift shop. But there is a problem when my friend want to thrift something and she got overprice product and she got like what? Better buy a new stuff if the price is about the same. And afterthat she found out that there is so much thrift shop that sell overprice product. Wdyt?

Thriftshop nowaday is about cheap prices without sorting how the condition of the goods and sometime you found some stuff that it isn't suitable for reuse. Indeed it is purely their concept to earn more, and you should know how to react to them as a customer

It's a good idea to spend a little money for the purpose of saving, but you have to pay attention to the goods first, don't buy them right away

I think you still can't save money if you go there and buy a lot of stuff

This is a matter of person preference. If you want to save money and don't mind using clothes other people have used, then thrift shopping is for you.

If you're okay, it's okay to wear clothes that have been worn by other people, then it's okay for you to buy thrift shop stuff

I am a big fan of thrifting, and i do thrifting once ot twice a month. I don't ever feel anything even though what I was wearing was clothes that had been worn by someone else. But the greatest thing is we are likely to found expensive items at lower prices

It depends on each person's preference because there are people who don't want to buy used items that are already worn by other people, especially clothes in this case. But if you don't think it's a problem, then this could be one way to save money

I like the way we can save for buying cheaper clothes, but for some people I'm not sure they want to use someone else's used clothes

it's a good thing to save on lifestyle, but while i have more money i will consider to buy new clothes at a slightly higher price than buying at thrift shops
