There comes a point in a girl’s life when she realizes just how fucking expensive it is to be a girl. Clothes, makeup, hair products…how’s a broke girl supposed to get everything she needs for a reasonable price?
That’s where thrift shopping comes in.
-
You never know what you’ll find, and that’s part of the fun.
-
Once you start thrifting, you literally can’t stop.
-
Seriously. If you see a thrift store, you’re going to pull over.

You know that a designer bag is a great investment…
-
But only if you’re paying less than half price.

Nothing is more comfortable than jeans that have already been worn in.

Second-hand shoes seem gross the first time.
-
Then you just can’t stop buying them secondhand!

You realize how infrequently people wear expensive shoes based on how nice they are when you find them thrifting.

Online thrifting became your favorite thing when you discovered it.
-
Seriously. Online. Thrifting.

When you find a real treasure, you know that you’ll keep it forever.

Finding vintage clothes is just as great as finding bargains.

Vintage jewelry adds spice to any outfit.

But you don’t love anything more than a great deal.
