In this HTC Pin, we say you can find all 10 in your favorite consignment, resale, and thrift shops… but actually, you’ll have a hard time limiting yourself to 10, if you shop like me. Well, no harm done, at gently-used prices we can afford 12 or 13…. or 20!
RePlace
Shopping the recycled way
Seriously now. Your closet?
There’s something I’ve been meaning to talk to you about, and it’s kinda personal.
Your closet.
If it’s bulging with clothes and you have nothing to wear, it’s time for some editing, some subtractions and some fab new additions. That’s where the Professional Resalers on our Resale and Consignment Shop Directory come in…
the help you need to have the wardrobe life you’ll love.
Let them guide you in deciding what to pass on to others and what to add in to your closet to make
every day a good outfit day!
PS The same goes for your kids’ closets too. Why waste space on clothes and toys they aren’t using. Turn your Cluttered Closets into Cash with the help of your local consignment or resale shop… and don’t forget your charity-run nonprofits too!

The Secret Life of Bag Sales
Chances are, right about now (or soon, ask your favorite consignment or resale shop), there’s some great buys offered during bag sale events.
What, you say? You don’t “need” anything?
Auntie Kate begs to differ. You need SO many things, you’re gonna be buying three bags full.

USED is BETTER than NEW
USED IS BETTER THAN NEW because it’s “wear-tested”: you know what it will look like after it’s been washed.
USED IS BETTER THAN NEW because the commercial sizing is out of it, giving a better feel to the fabric.
USED IS BETTER THAN NEW because you know how it’ll fit… you don’t have to “allow for shrinkage.”
USED IS BETTER THAN NEW because any allergies caused by synthetic coatings will be eliminated.
