Wow! Who would let a Chanel bag slip by? Do you guys visit thrift stores on a daily basis and that's why you can score great finds? Share some tips!

I have my favorite days to go personally, but i think it depends upon the store. go frequently and you'll find some days are better than others.....but a lil luck and a good eye helps too.
 
I've been finding a lot of good books at thrift stores lately. Usually it's just romance novels and thrillers, but in the past week I've hauled home a bunch of literatary fiction and such. Maybe all the students leaving for the summer are donating their books.
 
wow, jun3
you must been real lucky that day XD now i envy you..haha

My local thrift stores make me shudder. All I see are the typical teen brands. You know what they are: AE, Abercrombie, Hollister. :sick: But I'm going on vacation to LA soon so hopefully I'll have more luck there.
 
i found a cute green apple color linen/cotton pencil skirt from goodwill on discount for 3 bucks and a gucci style 80s dark blue purse with gold chain for 2,99... also white tennis style/threes company looking shorts for 5 bucks! good scores.. ill try to post pics very soon :)
 
the other day i found a pair of paper denims for my girlfriend. $5.
 
Recently spotted red leather Dooney & Bourke bag for $18 at local thrift store. Not sure if I should get it though. I'm usually not keen on their bags, especially those cartoonish kinds. But this bag is an older style that's more classic.

just as long as it doesnt have DB all over it, you'll probably be ok.
