Another day, another jackpot thrift store find from r/ThriftStoreHauls.
This post came from a shopper who had combed through winter wear at Goodwill.


"Screeching because I found three 100% wool sweaters at Goodwill that look like they were worn once!" said the original poster, who got $400 worth of wool clothing for only $15 — an incredible bargain.
Thrifting is already a great choice for your wallet and the planet because you get major discounts while keeping items out of landfills. It's an even better choice when it gets you natural fibers.
So much clothing today is made of synthetic materials — in other words, plastic — that wear out quickly and shed polluting, toxic microplastics every time you wash them. When it's time to throw them away, they take decades or centuries to break down.
Natural fibers, on the other hand, are made of safe and eco-friendly materials that decompose naturally. Wool in particular is an amazing cruelty-free choice because sheep need to be shorn for their health — and the resulting clothes are durable and warm even when wet, making them perfect for winter weather.
