Amy's Spring Break Thrifting Adventure

During spring break I had some time to get to my favorite thrift store and do a little shopping. I snagged some great deals like always and am excited for you to take a look! 

A Plato's Paradise

     To most people, thrift stores have become known as the place to find the cheapest clothes. The stores themselves are depicted as being unsanitary and disorganized. In addition, the people that choose to shop at thrift stores are often stereotyped as being stingy and tacky. However, while most thrift stores are not the equivalent to a five-star hotel, they are still relatively clean, functional places of business. While there are several different chains of thrift stores in existence, the one that wins the award for having the most stylish and contemporary items would be Plato’s Closet. 

     This high-end thrift store channels its business towards high school and college students. This is primarily because they understand how important it is for these individuals, particularly college students, to save money while keeping up with the latest trends. Plato’s Closet is unique from other thrift stores because they will actually buy clothes from their customers. This is their strategy in maintaining their stylish selection of attire and accessories. All you have to do is bring in currently trendy attire and you’ll receive cash on the spot! Here is a quick and easy article regarding the rundown of how to sell your clothes to Plato’s.

     Aside from the distinctive factor of receiving money for selling your brand name clothing and accessories, Plato’s Closet has one of the most laid back environments I’ve ever shopped in. The picture to the right demonstrates the relaxed and inviting atmosphere that Plato’s Closet has to offer. The options are endless at Plato’s with so many attractive items to pick and choose from. One of my greatest purchases from Plato’s was a form-fitting leather jacket that I bought for a bargain of only 10 dollars! There are items that could fit almost any type of style whether you’re shooting for goth, preppy, chic, sporty, vintage, hipster, etc. I would definitely recommend that you take some time, save some bucks and check out Plato’s Closet!
