I love to shop junk stores. The old saying one mans junk is another mans treasure. This is true for me. I could be a millionair and would still shop thrift stores. I like the excitement of not knowing what I am going to find and what kind of deal I am going to get. Most stuff that I get is good and I don't have problems with it. I don't mind clothes either you can find a lot of nice things. You do have to have time to go through the store, you don't just walk in and pick something off the rack, but I really enjoy the treasure hunt.

Oh, I'll take a thrift store, an antique mall, or a flea market over any other kind of store. I suppose it's a bit of the same thing- exploring to see what I'll find. And the difference between an antique and a new product is that the antique has already stood the test of time.

I love to shop at thrift stores too. Unfortunately we have no good ones in the rural area where we live. Driving a long way to get to a thrift store, just doesnt make sense with gas so high. I hope to get out and do some shopping soon though.

I dont shop there on aregular basis,but I do go once in awhile. You can find some cute things in there. When i need a new outfit and dont want to spend a fortune for it sometimes I go there.

oH yes, I really like that idea, shopping on the thrift stores. Well, may I know what are the stores you are going to?
like Goodwill,salvation army or what? these are also called by others a junk store. lol.. but I often shop to these stores and I find good things there. So, what stores you are going into? can you share?

I love going to thrift stores. In most of the thrift stores I visit, I see a lot of good things worth buying. There are times though that I really do not buy. I just love looking around. But, to date, I have bought several items already from thrift shops.

thumbup Oh yes! I love to shop at thrift stores too! Tee hee! You sound like me ... even if I had all the money in the world I would still like shopping at thrift stores! It is the thrill of the hunt! Sometimes you can find really nice designer clothes with the price tag still on them. I like to see if I can find a good deal on collectibles ... I like to collect barbie dolls, other toys, depression glass and a whole lot more. One time my husband and I went to Georgia and went to almost every second hand store along the highway! We walked and walked and were so tired by the end of the day!! We found so much cool stuff!
