Thrifting can be a fun way to explore your personal style affordably. Plus, it can be a way to find deals on things for all over your home!
One Redditor shared a recent score with r/ThriftStoreHauls; in the post, they showed off the Bose headphones they got for just $5. The photo shows the headphones, cord, and carrying case. On the outside of the case, viewers can see the sticker showing the $5 price tag.


They added in the caption, "I found these Bose headphones at Goodwill… I've been getting a lot of Bose speakers all marked for $5 at this store."
Regularly thrifting can save you at least $100 a year. One survey from CouponFollow even found, "Thrift store shoppers save an average of $1,760 per year by buying secondhand items."
Choosing pre-loved items can save them from the landfill, giving them new life. "Research by WRAP found that extending the average life of clothes by just nine months would save £5 billion in resources used to supply, launder and dispose of clothing."
In addition to saving money and helping the environment, shopping secondhand is also a way to find one-of-a-kind vintage gems. One person was able to score a vintage designer bag for a fraction of the price. Someone else found a genuine animation cell from a Disney animated movie.
