The official thrift/discount store bragging thread

[ilikethelights]



my next big investment will be copping these bad boys after christmas with some ebay money and hopefully a buttload of end of season discounts

Bought these same boots with some thrifting made ebay money for maybe $120 last sale a few months ago? So far so good.

dudes start going through your post histories. this is going to be epic.

Unfortunately, the only thing I have is the $20 Versace jacket I found that Spoo turned into $521. That's got to be good enough for tenth place on the ebay monies, right? Top 25? Am I even in a bowl game?

Holy cow, wow, just damn wow wow wow wow.

Spoo is awesome guy, he also has this Midas touch, high end gear just gravitates towards him.

In a surreal parallel universe, he would only need to walk past a store and his mere presence would cause the highest end gear to rain down into his large vintage Louis Vuitton case. In a billion years from now his reincarnated self would become the first man to find perfectly preserved Hermes gear in a fossil dig. Others would find boring bones turned into rock, he would find well tailored wares.

Not thrifted, but I picked this up today

2013 Volvo S60 T5 Premiere w/ AWD, heated front and rear seats, heated washer fluid nozzles, and remote start

Now to catch up on the thread

Nice!! I had a Volvo '01 S60 T5 followed closely by an '05 S60 R. Sold it for the best (or so I thought)t. I get the mod bug on almost every car I own and with the Volvos it got expensive quick. I'm talking full Heico exhaust, Heico ECU reflash, Volution wheels, shift kit, etc. Sold it for a car that I felt was so plain-jane I wouldn't feel the need to do mods. Wrong.

Also saw some brand new KMW jeans with red/blue selvedge but was definitely not my size (I can get it if anyone wants it). Hopefully I stumble across some more finds

Whaaa? Should have grabbed these regardless if they costed under a Jackson.

Ah ****. Guessing at least one of these are stores I frequent as well?

Sadly yes, at least a few of them. I hope they at least throw us a bone once in awhile. They didn't even do that today and I know they had some amazing stuff.

Not getting into mods yet, but I've read about the Polestar tuning... Just enjoying it as is for now. It's the first time I've enjoyed driving in like 15 years (stupid kids).

Also, this fabric is the color of chambray, but is stiffer than chambray shirts and ties I've seen- is it still chambray or is there a better term?

Wow didn't even recognize the side profile of that Volvo... I loved the S60's my parents had for a while, and the T5's were a lot of fun even in stock form.

Got the Filson safari coat I found a week or two ago back from the cleaners. No more aromas of urine! On the downside, there was a little printed tag hanging from it that read: Special attention has been given to this garment but the spots or stains remaining cannot be removed without causing damage to the color or material. We call this to your attention so you may realize that it has not been overlooked. It's like

for doing what you could, but

, I paid almost as much for the special cleaning as I did for the jacket. Hopefully it'll break even on the bay.
