Are there already 20 signs in this video?

Hey guys, And welcome to a very long overdue thrift ING tips video.

Now, you guys know me as somebody who fits a lot.

But for the majority of my life, I was one of those people who could not for the life of me get into drifting.

I just found it so frustrating I could never find something that I actually liked.

It really wasn't until college that I got into three thing and I felt like I developed my thrifty skill set.

So today I wanted to share my tips with you guys.

Hopefully, whether you are getting started with drifting or your business like in advance Drifter And you want some pro tips from somebody who's doing it for a very long time, I have something helpful to offer.

She's only meeting Oh, just act like I was squeezing a boob before I jump in the oh, I did want to say there has been some discussion about whether drifting as like a trendy they, rather than out of economic necessity, is fair to people who actually rely on for stores as their main source of clothing.

I do think that is an important issue to be sensitive about it.

I would love to hear your guys experiences if it has personally affected you or your family.

But I will say overall, only around 20% of clothing that gets donated to thrift stores is actually sold, and the rest has to go to recycling plans or get sold to resell markets and Third World countries.

So overall, there is still an incredible supply of secondhand clothing that isn't being bought an overall.

I do think it isn't that good if we get more people drifting like when I was in high school, it was all about like who could afford Abercrombie, who had their like Ugg boots?

And now it's super cool to see people being proud of clothing that they bought for an affordable price, being proud of clothing that they bought second hand and also just like expressing their style through really unique funky pieces.

I just wish that I had that when I was younger and of course environmentally.

I think it's great that people are buying second hand instead of new stuff.

However, as their stores do bit more popular, I think that we can all pitch in by leaving through stores better than we found them.

If there is clothing on the ground, pick it up and put it back on the rack.

If you try something on or you have clothes that you don't want any more, put them back exactly where you found them in the correct sections.

Just generally be kind of respectful to the employees.

Satan hears you if you're rude to an employee working at a service job, so just keep that in mind.

I think that we can all do our best to make Thrift store is a really good place for everybody.

So with that being said, let's jump into my tips Now I think one of the most common misconceptions about drifting is that you could only do it at your local chain thrift store, but they're actually so many different ways that you could buy clothing secondhand.

So today I'm gonna walk you guys through tips for all of them.

So first up here are my tips for hunting down a good regular in order to figure out where you should go through things you gotta have to figure out which end of the spectrum you want to look for.

Are you looking for vintage clothing for?

Are you looking for contemporary clothing at a cheaper price.

So if you're searching for vintage clothing, you gotta go where the old people are.

You got to go to where there are families out in the suburbs.

You can look up online the county's or neighborhoods in your area and look up the average age demographic.

And you could also look up the average income so you want a high income and a higher average age.

Or, if you want to sneak a little shortcut, you could just look up country clubs and shop in those areas.

Or, if you are real estate like me, you can go on Zillow and look a property values and then set your minimum to like, half a $1,000,000 or something and see aware homes pop up.

All of the homes are worth $1 million or more, so you gotta go like 1.5 million.

Some rich people also this could be used as a guide to finding out which houses you should rob.

The only steals were didn't hear our thrift store steals because we got some good deals.

Watch out a new thrift store rappers in town anyways.

But on the other hand, if you're thrift ing for more contemporary clothing, go to wear like 20 something professionals live, which tends to be like Maur downtown or in kind of like a transit area.

Once you found the store, try drifting on the weekdays instead of the weekends.

I know it's not possible for everybody with a 9 to 5, but I think you'll often find that there is a higher volume of donations before, like the big rush of customers have come on the weekends.

Now, this part where it gets a little bit neurotic.

But if you are serious about finding good go to thrift stories, I would recommend keeping a thrift store log, and basically you can keep like notes app on your phone.

It doesn't have to be that complicated, but every single time you go to a new thrift store right down the quality of each of the sections.

Often there isn't one thrift store that's good for everything.

But there is like a thrift store that has really well organized men's T shirts or one thrift store that has, like a lot of ball gowns and prom dresses.

So if you note which section is best in each thrift store, you can save time by just making a beeline to that one section that you like.

And you can also note which days are the best for each thrift store.

If you really want to get advance, you can ask the employees when they do their biggest restocks.

Most of stores will kind of like restock throughout the day, but there might be one day where they get the most donations and then at night, take like another day for them to turn over the stock and organize it in the store.

And then that is the day you could go shopping for if you're too embarrassed to do that like me, you can just go on multiple days and note which days were the best for shopping there, Of course, at the end of the day, sometimes it is just really hard and time consuming to find physical places to thrift that you actually really like.

So another great option is online drifting.

This portion of the video is sponsored by Threat Up.

I have worked with them so many times before, even when I'm not sponsored by them.

I love shopping at them because it's just such a frickin convenient way to thrift.

Basically, they make it possible to thrift from your bed, which I'm not complaining about, their basically just a giant online thrift store.

You guys always ask me for my tips on how I find cute stuff on Threat up, though, so I thought I would tell you right now What an interim, actually.

So first up, I take advantage of write ups filtering feature.

It basically allows you to input your size in like bottoms.

Talks, dresses, shoes that you only have to look at clothing that you already know will fit you.

But you can also filter by color brand price style.

I always think about what brands age well.

So, for example, something like Abercrombie might not be the best to search on threat up because there's gonna be a lot of shirts from, like early two thousands, those hoodies that might not be super in style versus something like made well, J crew, Anthropologie Free people.

I still really like their clothing from like 5 to 10 years ago.

But one of my favorite Francis urged, is Urban Outfitters.

I actually found multiple items on threat up that I saw, like literally a year ago in store Urban Outfitters, for example, I got this girl.

I literally have a photo of me trying on this exact skirt at Urban Outfitters.

I thought it was a super cute skirt, and I was like, nearly ready to buy It knew, but I'm glad I didn't because this was originally estimated to cost around $45 and I got it for $9.

I also picked up this dress for Urban outfitters, which honestly looks like something they would have carried this past spring slash summer.

It was originally estimated to cost $60 I got it for 12.

So besides that, I will also always search for Tommy Hilfiger and poor holo Ralph Lauren Lauren.

Okay, this is like an old mean in my old videos.

Still, and I'm 21 now, the other two classic brands that I feel like I've aged very well.

And you can also search the men's section for these and find some really cute like quarters it's or sweaters that look very like preppy and classy.

So, for example, I got this Tommy Hilfiger sweater for $18 and it was originally estimated to cost around 129.

I just find that Tommy Hilfiger and Polo Ralph Lauren always have really classic colors, classic silhouettes and its material that is very sturdy.

I will also search for vintage brands, and this is like my sneakiest tip because I feel no many people think of this.

But there are certain brands that are not necessarily that cute today or there.
