    Those prices are crazy! Especially because all of the items were donated.

      Jenna Phipps Are you Canadian? I find our pricing here in thrift stores is MUCH higher than the states. It’s insane.

    The brighter color lululemons are generally priced cheaper and the neutrals are more. I noticed the pattern when you were flipping through pants and tops.

    When you’re buying striped or patterned garments, always look to see if the stripes etc line up across seams, shoulders, pockets etc. If they do, the garment has been better made than when they do not. That black and white jacket’s stripes didn’t line up, so I’m glad you didn’t buy it.

    Our thrift store prices here in Canada are NUTS! I always envy those who live where their thrift stores are actually affordable.... like $4.99 affordable T_T

    Seems like you should try reselling to support your thrifting finds. The Nike shirt...the color makes your eyes pop. It's a good color for you.

    Just found your channel! Subscribed right away! 😊 Thrift store prices are insane. Greed has taken over Savers and Goodwill. I'm Canadian and live in the States and the prices here have gotten out of control over the past year. For donated, used stuff. 🤨 I go online to Thred Up alot now, it's way cheaper! And Ross stores here carry all the coveted brands like Adidas, Calvin, Tommy etc for less and it's brand new! Thrifting has become such a scam which is so sad because it was so fun and exciting! Hopefully people will stop going as much and they will lower the prices back to where they should be!

    @DoriceLee 4 года назад +1

    Which location is that in Vancouver? I've been here two years but still not sure which location is the most reliable for good finds. Also that moment when a pair of high waisted pants from the thrift store fit perfectly, what a great feeling haha, happy for you! And pricing at Value Village in general is definitely getting out of hand, but I've never seen anything like that jewellery section, holy.

      👀👀👀 Crazy as it is horrendous one in North Coquitlam I am quite sure...horrible there.
      I don't think there is a 'be all end all' location any longer.
      Better to support Salvation Army rather than the American owned conglomerate Val.Vlge.

    What size do you look for when thrifting men jeans?? I can never seem to find the right size :(

    • @JennaPhipps
      @JennaPhipps  5 лет назад +3

      I am typically a 25/26 in women's jeans and I look for 29/30 in men's jeans. This can vary a bit depending on the fit I want.

    • @isavel.xo97
      @isavel.xo97 5 лет назад

      measure your waist and give yourself +/-3 inches for womens jeans and +/-5 for mens...its not bulletproof but it usually works for me

  • @wendyWERKKZ
    @wendyWERKKZ 5 лет назад

    I live in southern California and the pricing is pretty similar to goodwill and savers down here, exept for the jewelry, I've never taken a close look at the "fine" jewelry available but I dont think I've seen anything like that, even designer peices priced for over 1000 lol, considering alot of private jewelry designers price their brand new peices with real gems and gold or silver around those prices, that was a bit of a reach, I get its probably vintage but it's also probably tarnished and they got it donated!!!

    i dont look for brands, i look for things that are tagless, aka homemade. there's someone in my area that is knitting sweaters, tuques, mitts, and scarves and they are amazing. also a lot of homemade clothes (think long skirts that were probably made by Muslim girls when long skirts arent in fashion), and they are the friggen best quality and so much care goes into them

    Super cool editing. Found you yesterday, subscribed today. Is this Vancouver Canada? Washington State? Was wondering if those are Canadian prices, cause that would make (slightly) more sense. We have .99 cent men’s T shirts here at my local Salvation Army (Texas) . Makes flipping very profitable with little risk.
