Thrift Store Tuesday

Welcome to another week of resale and thrift store shopping!

My question this week:

Do you think about the environmental friendliness when purchasing used, or is it more about saving money?

For me, it's a combination. I love buying vintage on many items because not only can it be better quality, but sometimes the details are just so much more than on items you can find today.

When it comes to kids clothes, they grow so fast that it's nice to be able to pick up some of the wardrobe used, and save the cash for buying other items. And with DH, he destroys his clothes so easily, plus he's picky, so I always grab whatever he finds that he likes and fits. (Of course, it kind of backfires because you end up with the overflowing closets for all of us, LOL)

We didn't get to go thrifting this week, so I have no fun finds to share. Did you find anything good?
