End of season sales are the best times to score a deal, meaning winter jackets in the spring and bikinis in the fall. If you can’t find the deal you want, snap a picture of the tag and the item so you can find it later on at the right price point. If the stigma of thrifting gets to you, remember, it’s not “used”, it’s “vintage”.

One thing lead to another and we were swapping some life lessons and the topic happened to be marriage. You each choose something for the other to find at a consignment, thrift, or vintage shop. Whoever find theirs first or scores the best deal wins! We just had some people over to our house for lunch this past weekend.

From TVs to gaming systems to phones, buying used can make a great deal of sense, whether you buy used from someone you trust, or whether you buy factory-refurbished , this a good options. We bought a lot of our son’s onesies and other items (including a crib) at a consignment shop. You can get a great deal on used jewelry.

Thrift stores and consignment stores are a great resource for polos, dress shirts, khakis or long pants. You can take your child’s gently used uniforms to the school exchange and then either get a discount or just swap out items for a different size. Shop Second-Hand. Check With Your Child’s School. Think Long-Term.
