thrift store

A thrift store is a retail shop that sells secondhand or donated items, such as clothing, furniture, household goods, and accessories, often at lower prices than new products. These stores operate as non-profit organizations or businesses that support charitable causes, recycling goods to reduce waste. Shoppers can browse a wide variety of gently used items, offering a sustainable alternative to buying new products. Thrift stores are popular for affordable shopping, unique finds, and supporting community or charitable initiatives. They promote reuse, affordability, and environmental sustainability by giving pre-owned items a second chance.
