25 Times People Totally Killed It Thrift-Store Shopping And Bragged About It

I used to love thrift store shopping, though the pandemic has taken its mighty sword to the hobby.

Back before we were all constantly worried about coughing, I could spend hours in a shop perusing all the fashions that had come and gone. I’ve found some amazingly pricey pieces that were fractions of the original price and I’ve also found some “oh god no” ensembles. It’s all part of the fun!

Also fun, and safe to do at home, is perusing the r/ThriftStoreHauls subreddit, where we found some awesome posts with some seriously kickass finds. Here are 25 of the best!
