The official thrift/discount store bragging thread - Page 4034

Quick thrift today.

I don't always pick up Corbin. But when I do it's a mini houndtooth SC that fits me!

I also picked up this Zegna. All details scream ORPHAN but sport coat enough to pull off. Let me hit up a homie to see if this is his size. If he passes, it's available for you guys.

Don't mind the spot. I was treating a spot. The stain now has been cleaned.

Also, I would like to brag that I have 3 pairs of mid tier selvedge jeans in my rotation, now! Not enough! Need more!

Where is this Marshall's? I live in Southern California. We live in area that is mostly middle class along with some nicer areas. We have a Marshall's and they never have that type of stuff. They used to have suit section 10 years. Now they usually only get a few. I guess it has to do with the are we live in. I remember last year going to Marshall's and they usually would have no more than maybe1 dozen suits. Just a few near where the dress shirts would be. I remember once they had 1 Polo Suit that was a 40L and they had least 2 or 3 Theory Suits. The rest of the stuff was junk.

Call around to find the one closest to you with a suit department. Thats the one you want to go to. Near me the closest one is a half hour away but I go every few weeks.

A Marshalls I went to had the exact same tuxedo, but it wasn't on sale. And a bunch of other really nice stuff too. Even a solid navy Brioni suit. Here are some pictures I snagged quickly...

3 Piece Corduroy 40L 31/30

VTG Glen Plaid Tweed - 42L

My wife is hating me for selling this one, but it really is just a tad too small...even though I wear a 44.

40R

I regularly see clothing from those names at Marshall's here in Atlanta.  A while back one had two racks full of Corneliani ID jackets.

Saw that same one in black earlier this week...only a size 12....almost picked it up, but...

The Brioni, RLPL and Kiton stuff will never get below $650 (unless there's something lower than yellow-tag pricing that I don't know about; maybe they continue to reduce these things until they sell), which wouldn't be too out of the question if the stuff ever fit. I did almost pick up a nice BB Golden Fleece that was rebranded as "Full Canvas" for Marshalls sale purposes for $250, but couldn't pull the trigger.

The only discount store stuff I've every actually kopped were a Drakes grenadine and a Barbera cashmere knit. I didn't even pick up the RLPL shepherd's check for $80, which I probably should have.  

EDIT: I see casey has answered my question.

What's the employee discount like? Should I get a weekends-only job?
