    Today I tried three different thrift stores, Buffalo Exchange, Goodwill and Retrospec, for some good old fashion thrift shopping. Each store I asked about policy and any special procedures during shopping, and today i'm sharing that with you, while also trying on the clothing I purchased!

    Former Buffalo employee here! The new stuff isn't actually produced by Buffalo, it's sourced and bought from vendors at trade shows and the like, similarly to department stores and lower-end fast fashion-y boutiques. They also sometimes get irregular or overstock from more recognizable brands. Depending on the state laws, most or all of their jewelry will be new too (in some states you need a pawn license to sell used jewelry, which can be expensive for the stores to maintain).

    The blue Jean shorts that are gapping in the back: try handstitching a piece of elastic on the inside of the waistband (only across the back) and if you gain weight in the future and need the extra room in the waist just pull out the stitches and elastic. I’ve done this to a few pairs of shorts and I find even when I gain weight the elastic is so forgiving I haven’t needed to remove it.

      Have to do this all the time because my hip to waist ratio is kind of extreme and basically all bottoms do this over the butt gaping for me.
      Takes like 15 minutes to do while watching a show or something.

      @katherinefotopoulos9244 4 года назад

      @@DieAlteistwiederda Girl same! Once I learned you can sew elastic into a band like that, it was game over. I have an extreme measurement change, so I could never find anything that fit.
      Qcknd, try to learn this skill too girl! Once you do it makes your clothes wearable for 10 mins worth of hand sewing, and the cheap price of a little bit of elastic.

    At the consignment shop in my neighbourhood, if you ask they give you gloves to make looking through the racks safer! Also you can try on clothes, but they tell you to put the clothes you tried and not want to buy on a special rack and they steam clean them all before placing them back out. I recently went there and felt super happy after my purchases!

      I was just about to comment about how jealous I was about that skirt. bike shirts underneath of a skirt are not always the most comfortable but when you're wearing a mini skirt it's nice to have that extra layer of protection. It's nice that it's built in It's probably more comfortable that way.

    Omaha, NE resident here! I went to Goodwill to donate clothes but I popped in really quick to look around. There was a sign to social distance and you couldn't try anything on. As I was in the corner of the store, minding my business, having a moment with the glorious 70s wall decor I found involving racoons two women went passed me and one brushed up against me. I said "EXCUSE ME" and she turned, and they didn't have masks on, they didn't seem to care at all. So then I got my decor and Christmas blankets and left.

Thrift in my city and I've only been to it once and couldn't stay long but I found a really pretty evening dress in my size with zero defects, perfect for a wedding I'm attending soon for $5.21! I had to try it on over my clothes using the store window as a mirror but the sales girl was super nice.
    I looked up the brand and their dresses retail for $50+, the cheapest I found from it was on Poshmark for $20

    The athletic skort is adorable. It is gaping at the back most likely because the built in shorts are too short for your torso pulling the waistband down. Our thrift stores have reopened, and the only requirement is to wear a mask right now. Donations can also be put in a bin instead of handing to an employee.

    you're right about the bins at goodwill! i used to work at one, as a pricer you had to hit a certain amount of items per day which then led to X amount of items put onto the floor in a day. items coming in usually go right out onto the floor after a manager goes thru to approve and check price tags. i don't work at goodwill anymore and tbh i'm not surprised that they aren't sanitizing new product before selling!!!
