<p>I’m not a big fan of thrift stores, but I will go to them for certain electronics (finding a McIntosh amp for example). Also you can find stuff such as a stationary bike (which can be transformed in to a electricity generating bike).</p>
<p>I really despise shopping there for anything else, as I really dislike the conditions of the stores and I would prefer to pay full price for something new when it comes to clothes. It is the same with stores like WalMart or Marshalls, they just emit a sort of cheap feeling that I really don’t like.</p>
<p>50% of my wardrobe comes from goodwill. they have fantastic brands known for quality and style. on my last trip some of my finds included an authentic juicy couture swim cover-up (trust me, i know my fakes), a banana republic tweed blazer, BCBG coat, and a ralph lauren shirtdress. EHHMMMMMAZING. all of these things and more that i got for less than $40.</p>
<p>plus i love buying books and coffee mugs from there :)</p>
