I LEFT THIS AT THE THRIFT STORE 😭

[@yeeyeeyeeye]

People saying that trying things from the thrift store is "gross" as if they don’t try on unwashed pieces of clothing coated with residue and dye from the sweatshops off the rack in normal clothing stores.

[@emi_333]

bonus formaldehyde mention

[@Ok-jq2ib]

clothing stores are far more hygienic..

[@ceri4146]

@@Ok-jq2ib more? i wouldnt say that. the thrift stores i go to also sell completely new clothes as well. they wash all the clothes they get as as well as reject any clothes that have any sort of smell or stain. not to mention that clothing stores people are trying it on and just putting it back on the rack. they have chemicals on them a lot of the times that are not healthy for you and some people have gotten sick from wearing unwashed clothes from clothing stores because of the formaldehyde and other chemicals on it.

[@ThatGuyMikey1]

Mao Mao PFP spotted

[@hyperfujis]

@Ok-jq2ib i work at a clothing store and that is NOT true. on top of the dye and chemicals, the clothes have gone through hundreds of pairs of hands before it reached you. they've also likely landed on the dusty ass floor and been put back without being washed💀 i would try on thrift store clothes any day before trying on new clothes without washing them. the house they were in is probably more hygienic than the factory, the backroom, or the sales floor of a clothing store.

[@usagi.endymion]

That shirt with the werid straps might have been a halter!

[@cw7147]

I was thinking the same thing. I found the cutest halter top at one of those teens-20something resale stores. I hate a halter but I loved this top so much that I brought it to a tailor to have it converted to a tank. 15 years later it's still one of my fav comfy/cute tanks ❤ Eta: the straps didn't look insane like the one here but if you looked closely you could see they were a little closer than normal tanks

[@Kc-dq7zj]

Yep. And if it wasn't, it could have been turned into one really easily.

[@Widdekuu91]

If things are actually gross, you'd smell it. I wear things on my bare skin if I need to and I wash myself later on. Just a nice shower, after thrifting, no problem. Nobody with horrible skindiseases that are supercontagious is going to go out of their way to put their items in the thriftshop. Nobody with an invested house with bedbugs or whatever, will drive all the way to Goodwill to bring their items. They would have noticed, they would have thrown it out. And honestly, call me gross, but even if something is in the dumpster or it is super-old and discoloured in the neck, I would still put it on ( like if someone else wants to have it as well and we're checking who gets to keep it.) Only times I did not wear it before was 1. when someone gave me a beautiful red velvet cloak that had beervomit on it. 2. When a beautiful jeansjacket with ruffles had such a greasy, yellow neckline that I couldn't even hold it without it slipping from my fingers and 3. When a cute bathrobe was given to me by a woman that used tanning-cream and she smeared it all over the thing. So far, the only thing I have responded badly to (in terms of a rash) is when they áre washed beforehand and the person has put extra detergent and perfume on them. Thát itched for days and left big red marks, turns out I was allergic to the washingpowder.

The jacket looked very good on you aside from the broken zip. Which can be taken to a tailor and fixed.

[@liznichols4916]

The pull is actually just stretched. Some needle nose pliers will tighten it back up good as new. I just got my son a leather jacket from the thrift store and fixed this exact problem.

[@cassieblack1776]

I worked in retail for years. Trust me even department stores have clothes that have already been worn a bunch of times! It’s called the fitting room 😂 there all mostly already work clothes when you buy them. Just wear a tank and under garments to “ protect “ yourself and wash when you get home before wearing for real. Plus just check the clothes for …. Gross stuff possibly stains or maybe creepy crawlers.

[@um2913]

The great thing about having friends that are different sizes are that none of us have to worry about one of us finding something and the other liking it bc we’re not the same size even if we like it it’s not gonna fit the same. Also that last brown jacket looked so good on her though omg.

[@TarynRMartin]

Def go thrifting with a friend who isn’t the same size as you. ✌🏼

[@Gloulou10]

What I recommend when thrifting, is leggings and a long sleeve shirt (tight) or a body suit, so you can easily try clothes on ontop of your clothes! 😊

[@sagegreeeeeeen]

If people don’t try on clothes at the thrift store, they’re most likely not going to fit. Thrift stores have all different brands, which each have different “small, medium, and large” sizes

It's so sad that a piece of clothing at a thrift shop is 30 bucks.... Like a thrift shop is supposed to be the one alternative for people who can't afford to shop anywhere else. Thrift shops have been raising their prices more and more. It's devastating to think about because why do u need to make things so expensive if the clothes were DONATED in the first place???

[@averygrace01]

[@Jordè1222]

You must learn how to simply alter clothing to get the most value out of thrifting! You could very easily have moved the straps on the camisole. It was so cute 😭

Some of you guys who are saying that it’s disgusting of them to be trying on the clothes are on some high horse acting as though you’re better than everyone. And it’s always the same people who try on clothes in changing rooms from actual stores as if that’s any different? You do know that at least god knows how many people tried the clothes on before you right? 😭 You have to know if the clothes fit you so obviously you try it on.. Shirts, Sweaters, Jackets, & dresses, are all okay but trying on pants BY ITSELF is probably not.. as long as it doesn’t come into full contact with your skin then 👍 I always wear a thin long sleeved shirt under my hoodie if I go shopping, some leggings at least, and ofc the slippers in case we go shoe shopping :p Just make sure to wash it before fully wearing the clothes
