Starting my journey mid November wasn't the most well thought out plan, its freezing outside and makes you want to stay inside and binge YouTube videos all day. I think i found a solution that can get me moving while earning me money.
lacking the funds for a traditional gym membership i have had to get creative to put it lightly. Thinking of ways to stay warm in the winter has been a challenge but i think i found a way. Thift shopping has always been interesting to me. having over two dozen to choose from a 20 mile radius lead me to realize i can get out, move, hunt for deals and break the habit of sitting around all day lamenting the lack of funds for a gym membership.
Traveling north towards the more affluent areas of the area i live in has landed me plenty of scores. I have landed Disney treasures limited release dvd's that flipped quickly for $50 each, pure silverware in mismatched sets with silver plated counterparts. Name brand jackets, although they don't fit me (yet) i purchased for $5 and sold on facebook marketplace for $40-$90. And so much more!
Granted, not many trips will land you such lavish scores, but it has gotten me walking, moving and active compared to my sedentary habbits before. I love the thrill of the hunt, and getting me going is a great side effect.
What scores have you gotten at a thrift shop before, any tips you'd love to share? lets discuss below!
