Why I Don't Thrift | how to shop secondhand more intentionally

#minimalism #thrifting #shopsecondhand

Today I'm sharing why I don't particularly like to thrift. When I shop secondhand, I typically like to do that with as much intention as I would anything else. And when I was a shopaholic, thrifting usually ended up becoming an excuse for me to over-buy and over-spend without any particular purpose, even if it was a "really good deal".

To be clear, there is NOTHING wrong with thrifting. In fact there's a world of good in it and it's one of the best ways to shop for a number of reasons. But in this video, I'm speaking about a perspective of thrifting that got me into trouble, and how I choose to shop secondhand with as much intention as I would anything else.
