I haven’t been in thrift shops much, but after seeing some of the items below, I think I might become a frequent shopper. I want that Calvin & Hobbes/Star Wars T-shirt. More to follow, too much awesomeness for one post.
Thrift shops are no longer just places where people go to throw together their last minute Halloween costumes. These are bastions of forgotten treasures and unexplainable oddities. Granted, a lot of the old school dingy and dusty operations have given way to pretty consignment and high-priced “discount” shops.
If you’re persistent though, you can still find the classic stores, and if you’re lucky, you’ll find amazing items like the ones below. These are just a few of the reasons you should still be hitting up thrift stores:
-
It’s a shirt you just buy and worry about explaining later.
