do you go to thrift stores? if so, what thrift stores do you go to?

i like buffalo exchange and rags to riches. except the other day i got this dress from buffalo exchange and i wore it once and the tie part fell off. that made me sad. :( but yeah, i feel bad whenever i go to a consignment or 2nd hand store because i feel like it's supposed to be for the needy, but i just like going to see if i can find any vintage stuff or surprisingly good finds.

The only thrift stores i ever been to were Michaels, Ross, Kohls, and Belles. It's great to get that feeling when you find something you like, but it's kind of a nuisance to go scavenger hunting for something you want.

I seen stuff on Ebay I like, and I still need to go to other places like Plato's Closet and Tj Maxx...where I could find stuff more fitting for my taste.
oh and do zappos count? :o



isn't michaels an arts and crafts store? do you mean marshalls?

those stores are like... discount stuff.

thrift stores are like salvation army or goodwill or whatnot. where people donate (or sell for really cheap) stuff for resale.

it's ok.
