Love the concept behind these thrift and op-shps. Giving people the opportunity to buy things they need at far more reasonable prices and at the same time saving items that can be repurposed from ending up as more landfill.
Vinnies has always been a great source for me for buying items such as large glass jars for my ferments and fabrics/books for my collage/bookmaking.
I'm in Sydney and haven't seen or heard of Savers before. Just looked at their Oz website and you have quite a few in Melbourne. Can't believe the size of these stores ~ Like department stores ~ Only heaps better knowing that everything has a pre-loved and eco 'value.' ♥︎♥︎⚖️♥︎♥︎
Yes me too and the positive imapcts on the earth that they have from giving the things- and the people a second chance too.
Yes Vinnies is great, infact I have been an avid opshopper now for about 30 years and ONLY shop in opshops- EVER (except for undies...🤣..) and I know that you guys have got some great opshops in Sydney, but still they're not Savers...🤣..SO, when you come to Melbs next, please let me know as I'd love to take you there..😁😁😁😁🤣
Sounds great @chocolatescorpi. I used to go to Melbourne quite regularly as I still have family there: just not over the last few years. ♥︎♥︎⚖️♥︎♥︎
Sweet!
Let's do it when this Covid thing settles down then! 😃
