We have quite a few thrift stores in my area but I like to go to the Salvation Army Store because I also donate to the stores and sometimes they have pretty good items. I've not been in a while I have to get rid of some things before I can get more. My grand daughter is getting her first apartment so she is shopping my house for stuff. I love it so happy she thinks I have such great taste 😂😂

In our area where I live we have a church that has a thrift room in their basement. Also there is a indoor flea market across the street. We also have two Goodwill's, and a three floor antique /flea market

I have really come to love thrifting the last couple of years. I go to Goodwill, the Salvation Army, but my favorites are the local shops. My family and I are doing a thrifted gift exchange this year. Can’t wait to see what everyone finds!

Love to go thrifting and shop them all. When I go thrifting I don't think about work, the world we are living in or everyday stress. I get so excited when I find something I wanted but was just too thrifty to buy at a retail store. The prices are raising just like everything else.

I shop Goodwill on Tuesdays because of my senior (55 yrs) discount of 25%. But I donate to a local store that has a shelter for DV victims. You can donate directly to the shelter or to be sold at the store.

I love thrift stores! I try to find any place other than goodwill since their prices are absurd. I went to a new one to me the other day and it's also a food pantry. Ripped my heart out. Not a good thrift buy because I donated my change but it was somewhat satisfying.

I absolutely love thrift store. I love Goodwill and especially Goodwill outlets, we have a Hospice thrift store and a women’s shelter thrift store, which is wonderful. I have gifted thrift items, and I get almost all my clothes there. Merry Christmas

I love, love, LOVE going thrifting!!! We're fortunate to have both a Goodwill & a Salvation Army where I live. I find LOTS of items I like just as they are, but I also find plenty to makeover &/or repurpose into something new to me. I used to go thrifting every week, but I have amassed quite a collection over this past year. I need to do a huge declutter as well as complete several (thrift makeover) projects before adding too many more goodies to my stash, lol! I'd like to take before & after pics of my projects too. Yes, PLEASE consider doing a thrifting series of taking us with you to thrift stores as well as how you style &/or makeover your treasures!!! Happy Holidays, Val!!

If I had thrift stores like this I would go. The closest thrift store to me is Goodwill. They have racks and racks of clothes but the household items are on a shelf on top of the clothes racks, no good.

I love thrifting and go every week, however, there seems to be more "junk" and the prices have risen so much. It's like since thrifting is so popular, they raise the prices!!! Hard to find a good deal.

Hi, I go thrifting quite a lot. My favorite place is the Thrift Giant in Denton, Tx. I will find things almost every time I go. I find very high end fashion and other goodies. There are other Thrift Giants in the metroplex, but the one in Denton is by far the best. No smell, and mostly clean. Love your channel.

I downsized so much last yr. that this yr everything was sparse in my house. So I did try thrifting at the stores, but, to my dismay there was hardly anything. I think that most ppl here are holding on to their things because of the economy. I gave up 1/2 of my décor and wished I hadn't. I mean I really liked my things, but, decided I couldn't keep it all.

Have thrifted for many years. Unfortunately their hike in prices have gotten way out of hand. Many Items I can buy for the same price or less brand new on sale and clearance. I have to laugh when I see Dollar Tree items for $1.99, $2.99… Yes, sticker shock! So when I donate, I no longer donate to the thrift stores, now prefer to donate to a church or organization that gives free to people in need. Oh and DAV (they come pick up).
