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.
@@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.
@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.
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
I found the most gorgeous black gothic guess bag at the thrift store today. I gave it to my friend because she couldn’t find anything cute since she’s a shorter girl. I’m sad I had to give my find away but seeing my friend so hyped about it was worth it.
@@celineruby It is a slang term for awesome or good, sometimes words don’t make sense so looking at the context in which the word is used can help you figure out what it means. Also your English is very good !
@@IslanderT right like honestly why I do it right over my clothes like yeah some stuff you do need to try on in a dressing room but if I can try it over my clothes and tell I’m going to like it or not I’m definitely doing it.
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 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.
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 😭
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.
On an resale app yes but at a store made for low income families is crazy I got a leather jacket a while ago from someone who thrifted it for 25 bucks , goodwill prices are getting pricey
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.
My friends ½sister (down south, On) works at a VV ...4 weeks ago, the sister & workers came down w/ scabies after unloading 3 bags. Some of the unwashed clothes were still hanging there when they got back. Js
The way stuff is so expensive at THRIFT stores these days🤦♀️ i still thrift because i have found some cheap good stuff but regardless, they need to fix
The Puma jacket was also a kid’s jacket. It’s supposed to fit oversized on a child. Hence the really short sleeves. Btw: there are a lot of people who can’t afford to buy new clothes, so I would suggest leaving all jackets behind. You have no idea what it feels like to go thrifting when you can’t afford a new jacket for your child (including teens who are in junior/adult sizes) and there are literally no jackets left due to people doing this and also buying out clothes from thrift stores to resell them at high prices.
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
Yes I love to thrift and as a plus size girl I try most of it before I buy so I know that I at least can get into it lol 😅 Last week had the best thrifting finds! I found a Levis denim maxi skirt for 1 dollar (!), and the most beautiful lamp that is more than 100 year old, for only 6 dollars. Thrifting is the best! I wish we had more of it in my small town
I’m jealous of the prices you guys call “expensive”. Where I live that’s considered cheap! Thrifting was nonexistent 1-2 years ago and now that it had a boom in popularity they really just charge whatever, even for used H&M…
In England we call them charity shops ! But I have been buying vinyl ‘ books ‘ dvd’s ‘ clothes etc for 20+ years and have found ridiculously great deals over my years of collecting!!!Just got a lovely reebok wind breaker jacket with tags still on for £15 ! And 10 studio ghibli dvd’s £10 !!! And one of the best items is nirvanas incesticide lp on sky blue vinyl £2.50 !!!! Those would be the best things I found so far this year !!!! Happy hunting !!!!!
I try things on usually over a tight outfit like a thin long sleeves shirt and leggings (which go to wash after I go home) or if I try it on on how I would wear normal clothes I shower when I get home. Never had any issues.
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
Friendly reminder to thrifters, there's this thing called the five finger discount exclusive to chain thrift stores such as goodwill and savers. Support local thrift shops!!
Pre-Covid every thrift store I’ve ever been to, even the mom and pop style thrift shops, have a dressing room. Besides, clothing from these stores are used pieces, and I think, oddly, some people forget this
Why is everything so expensive??? Thrift stores are rip-offs who say they donate to charity but don’t that’s why charity shops are way better and way more affordable
That is exactly why i go thrifting alone even if i am lonely 😭 I go thrifting when i really need clothes so i would be very sad if i go there and then my friend finds something that they really like (i would be very happy for them of course i would just be like aww man 😭) so i just go alone and listen to some music
dude, just saw this video right after i just went to the thrift store with my bestie! i found such a cute overall dress and a cute button-down to go with it!
That jacket isn't broken. It has two zippers so you can have it closed or open in any place. I have a jacket like that and I don't wear it but if I did I would wear it with both zippers in the middle of the jacket and the top and bottom would be open, making it look like a blazer but with a zipper.
I don't get the hangup about trying clothes on in the thrift store. New clothes also get tried on in stores and sometimes you can tell because of the buttons or makeup stains. Sometimes people are more gross or entitled about it because it's new. I've known friends who did not care if they have underwear on or not when trying on a new pair pants because that's the next person's problem. When I found that out it blew my mind, because I'd never do that. At least at the thrift store, I know they throw things away if they smell bad like they hadn't been washed, are dirty, or look too old.
I remember those lace tanks from when I was in college in the early 2000s. Early on, places like Forever21 and Papaya were selling those and a lot of girls wore them under a blazer. I'm not sure why the straps were close like that, but at least they never fell down!
I love thrifting and if I cant try it on I don't buy it. You need to see how it fits. I have wasted too much $ on things I couldnt try on. Even if its only $5.00. Thats my $5 I could spend on something lse.
if you want to dare by pants in person you littarly cant not try it one lol i usally wear bike shorts under the pants im going with to try stuff on which helps as an extra layer

The jacket was very 90’s early 2000’s buffy the vampire esque
Frr I would've taken the first one
RIGHT that's literally what I was thinking as well, I would've bought it in a heartbeat
This thrift store is called unique and it is in Chicago for anyone wondering, and they have EVERYTHING
It says they’re in Toronto
the tags look like value village tags and seeing as everything seems to be so expensive for a thrift store, its probably a value village location
Incredibly overpriced, you kids are ruining life by buying this shit at astronimical prices which just makes them jack the prices even higher
@@whatever31451. Every thrift store has different prices and 2. They said that they didn’t get the overpriced stuff
She’s in Toronto😭 I love when people think they know where someone is but are so off
The jacket looked very good on you aside from the broken zip. Which can be taken to a tailor and fixed.
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.
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 😭

it's really not
the puma one looks like the dress to impress code one 😭😭
Me and my friends are all different sizes so we never have that problem 😭
Second friend in the line looks like Chappel Roan. Y'all should do a makeover where you thrift a the costume and do the makeup/hair together on her.
I thought the same exact thing
the jean jacket was everything!!
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.

but the better part of thrifting with friends is that you can SHARE CLOTHES 🤩

That puma jacket is definitely a thrift treasure, woah 😍

I like your flower shirt 🙂
Wear tight spandex shorts and top on to wear under while trying on! So your "no nos" dont touch anything lol
"its gross to try things on at the thrift store" how else are you gonna see if it fits???
Learn how to do basic sewing. Those straps could easily moved outward.
