Kate Spade Surprise: Finding Designer Deals at the Thrift Store

Okay, I'll admit it. This is a total brag post. But sometimes a girl just needs to share her amazing finds, alright?

Picture this: me, casually browsing at my local Plato's Closet (you know, like you do), and BAM! There it was. A gorgeous red-wine Kate Spade wallet, practically screaming my name. And the price tag? A ridiculous $12. I'm still in disbelief.

Seriously, I have no clue how they let this beauty go for so cheap. Maybe they didn't realize what they had? Maybe they were feeling extra generous that day? Whatever the reason, I am eternally grateful.

This just goes to show you that you can score incredible designer pieces without breaking the bank (or resorting to questionable online deals). So get out there and hit up your local thrift stores! You never know what treasures you might unearth.

Oh, and here's a little insider tip I got from a Plato's Closet employee: apparently, those purse sellers at the flea market are getting their goods from places like Plato's Closet! They buy them for pennies and then mark them up like crazy. (Which explains why everything was so ridiculously overpriced at the flea market I just visited.)

So yeah, consider this your official permission to skip the flea market and head straight to the thrift store.

Just to give you an idea of the price range this wallet is going for, here is a reference according to my image search on Google. It looks like this particular wallet is not available on Kate Spade's official website anymore.

Regardless, after seeing these results, I truly got this for a steal. I may even have to go back tomorrow, it's taking everything in me not to go buy everything they had.

Anyways, here's your tip for the day. Happy Hunting ✌🏼

Love ya,

Haybales

I ACTUALLY FEEL LIKE A PRINCESS

As a thrift shopper, this post resonates with me, Shopping cheap doesn't mean it's OK to act cheap.

Shopping Cheap etiquette:

General TAKE ONLY WHAT YOU NEED. ACCEPT "NO" AS A COMPLETE ANSWER. UNDERSTAND TIME IS A PRIVILEGE. KEEP SETS TOGETHER.

At the Thrift Store Don't hide things. You might be able to get bulk discounts if you ask politely. (I bought $40 of books for $20). Keep track of discount days. Give back: try to donate if you can. Check the Thrift Store first, so they can keep donations moving.

At the Flea Market Expect to rummage. Get to know the sellers. Learn to recognize rip-offs. Only try to haggle if you know what the item is worth. Keep sets together. If you don't need all of it, don't buy it.

At an Estate Sale or Auction Be respectful of the previous homeowners. Show up early. Don't haggle down your bid after purchase. If you buy it on accident, you still have to pick it up. Don't push pickup times. Take a chance on the $5 piles.

Garage Sale Haggling is usually expected. Don't park in anyone's way. Be friendly. Don't comment on people's property or items. Be neighborly.

At the Farmer's Market Make conversation, get to know people. Don't try to come to a booth while they are packing or setting up. Don't avoid imperfect food. Bring reusable bags and jars. Learn meat and veggie lingo. Avoid the resellers. They take up booth space from farmers.

At the Antique Store Don't swap price labels. Don't hide things for later. Expect rummaging. The staff doesn't know what's in the store. Understand different booths price differently. If you break it, you buy it. If the sign says "do not touch" don't touch it. Ask for help moving furniture or unlocking cases.

Shopping Online Shop online last. Always review who you buy from reasonably. Triple check the description. Don't complain about something you were warned about. Contact the seller with questions. Double check for "local pickup" listings.

Foraging food Leave only footprints. I've seen so much trash from foragers. If you can, grow it, don't forage it. Go for invasive edibles first. Don't forage in protected woods. Always leave some behind. Don't resell foraged food. Only. Take. What. You. Need.

It’s Not Your Imagination—Secondhand Stuff IS More Expensive Than Ever

Have you noticed that secondhand stuff is more expensive than it used to be? Because I absolutely have! Since I retired, I’ve been on a bit of a secondhand shopping spree. You see, I inherited almost all of my current furniture. I acquired it randomly from old roommates, friends moving across the country, my grandparents’ downsizing, and the legendary Allston Christmas. Now that work isn’t…

I paid less than $40 for all this. If I had bought new it would have been (I think) around $760!

Concord oppy is only open wednesday morning and one satdee each month, and it's over in concord so I was lucky I could organise to go with some friends. Dresses are $5ea (cue one was 8 I think) and tops $3. I put new prices in alt tags if anyone cares. (They're probably wrong. Apart from the ones on the og tags.)
