Start living sustainably, starting with small steps at a time; the pyramids weren’t built in a day. Find ways to reduce, reuse, and recycle your clothing and apply that to other common household goods such as water bottles, appliances, and plastic containers.<\/p>\n

It’s cheaper, and clothing and other items don’t have to go to the landfill. This protects the Earth and allows clothes to get more use before they are discarded. Thrifting saves water that would have been used to create more items in the factories.<\/p>\n

When you’re done with your clothes and items, consider donating them to your local thrift stores for a tax write-off, giving to a friend, hosting a yard sale, or even selling them online. Anything that gives them another chance at life before going to the landfill to rot.<\/p>\n

Thrifting is shopping for second-hand items. This can include frequenting yard sales, thrift stores, Facebook Marketplace, Goodwill, Deseret Industries, Uptown Cheapskate, Pre-Loved, and many more. You give clothing, shoes, furniture, etc, a new life by using what has already been made instead of purchasing a new item – thus using and polluting the earth’s resources of water and minerals.<\/p>\n

I love thrifting because of the thrill of the hunt for treasures. It’s always so nice to score something I’ve wanted, but not have to pay full price for it.<\/p>\n

I like knowing that I’m giving items a second life instead of just sending them to an overseas dump. With thrifting, I get to try styles that are unique and have lasting quality<\/p>\n

I love thrifting because it allows me to be even more creative with my outfits! I can find unique things and experiment with my style without the worry of spending all my money on clothes! I also feel better about thrifting because I’m helping get a second use out of some clothes that were loved and passed on<\/p>\n
