you can say that again,......on both accounts,......

i'm not rifleing through thrifts stores so much these days,....but in college i loved them,......old worn out concert tees, and already broken in jeans,......btw, i've learned that if you want your jeans to fit you perfectly, throw a few cups of epsom salt in a warm bath, put your jeans on, and sit in there for about 30 mins, get out and let the jeans dry on you,......bingo, perfect fittin jeans for the duration

or you cant take old clothes and make them your very own by adding and taking away. im attempting some fun designs over the summer between semesters. im a fashion major but i know plenty of people who arent that do the same. trust me. no one will have the same thing.

I havent bought clothes from a thrift store in a long time. Mostly just get all my clothes from the local skate shop. But in the summer, Im known to find some gangster ass shirts and cut the sleeves off. You can find some funny stuff.

True thrift store steez is wearin whatever you buy without washing it. but don't buy underwear... and wigs you might want to think about washing.

I think thrift stores are so underrated.
Where I lived in Wyoming I was in the poor family living in the rich town. But you would never have known...

I always thought Wyoming's state motto was 'Everyone is rich here'. =(
