Does anyone else shop at second hand clothing stores?

I loved used clothes and shoes! I have a compulsion for new(old) clothing and shoes. I visit Salvation Army (two different locations) around here on multiple occasions. Though I get my shoes used on ebay. I bought two pairs of pants, one shirt and one baseball cap the other day for 9 USD. I have bought enough clothing over the years to wear something new every day of the year! Perhaps another useless thread, but I just wanted to share my fashion sense! I write this as I wear my 99 cent San Diego Padres cap!

edit: I went to a yard sale in Maine once and the givers of said sale were selling what I thought were used underpants! Gross! That is a article of used clothing that I will not buy!

I just buy mine out of ASDA (Walmart accross the ocean), it's practically as cheap anyway.

People that spend £50 on trainers etc need a proper pimp-slapping!

I used to shop at thrift stores a lot, as some of the stuff is awesome if you have the time to rummage. Just make sure you wash every thing in hot water before putting it on.

Used shoes? No thanks...

In fact, the whole idea of used garments in general is disgusting. (No offense.) You don't know who wore the clothes and what they did in them before they were run through a crappy washing machine with a bunch of other questionable junk, but you should know that a lot of it can't be washed out.

I got an awesome trenchcoat for $20 at a thrift store.

Same. It may be cheaper but...... Eh, care not to think about it.

£50 is the average price, especially since the cheapest shoes/trainers I can get are around the £50 mark. Not my fault they don't cater for size 12 and above.
