the trick to thrift stores is 2 fold:

1) know the thrift stores that get the pro poo poo

2) know when they restock

like, for me, when i did a lot of thrifting a couple years ago, the store near me restocked on thursdays in the afternoon. you could go there a bit early and peep the new arrivals before they went out on the floor.

thats my thrifting tip. if you goto good will the ppl working there are usually nice. out of the closet has RLY nice ppl working there. ive always had better luck at out of the closet stores, personally - especially for art
