Most people think clothes when they think about what a thrift shop sells, but these shops often sell a number of other things that people can use in their day to day lives.

Make it be known that that that there is nothing wrong in purchasing second-hand items from thrift stores, yard sales, or via classified ads or even online via places like eBay or Craigslist. Public transportation can also be a great alternative depending on the area and your comfort level.
