033: Thrifting 101

Modern thrift stores AREN’T overflowing with Grandma’s mothball-y hand-me-downs.

That’s because 21st Century thrifting has become *quite* sophisticated.

Consumerism tells us need the newest + the shiniest. Today’s episode invites you to challenge that assumption by shopping secondhand, instead.

My guest this week is Amanda Lindner. She furnished her ENTIRE Brooklyn apartment with items purchased secondhand (+ for under $500 total!). She asserts that thrifting isn’t just frugal + eco-friendly; it’s fun, too.

Amanda’s here to offer her best thrifting tips for savvy, modern shoppers. Enjoy!
