Luck it’s what you need when it comes to thrifting. Secondhand shopping can be a real scavenger hunt sometimes, and you never know what treasure going to collect in the end.
There’s a huge online community of 1.6 million members of The ‘Thrift Store Hauls’ subreddit, which has been active since August 2011. The ‘Thrift Store Hauls’ community is all about people coming together and sharing their “thrifty finds” from garage sales, flea markets, and—yes—even pawn shops and estate sales.
Below you will see some good thrift that saved people lots of money and time.
