$ THRIFT SHOPS $ : Vintage and used clothing!

Do you know what a Thrift Shop is? This shop sells used clothes, books, furniture, accessories, kitchen ware etc. You can find good quality things that are cheap.

For our photo and blogging class project: 'Vancouver Fashion', we visited three thrift shops in our area:

Used House of Vintage sells unique 60~90's vintage style clothes and accessories like sunglasses, jewellery, hats, scarves and shoes. It is located on 1008 Robson st.

Salvation Army sells everyday clothes or crazy unique outfits to suite your style. It is located on 2714 W Broadway.


   Wildlife thrift store sells a lot of vintage & used items (clothes, furniture, books, sports equipment etc) It is located on 1295 Granville St.

       Korea also has thrift shops, but people usually don't go there. Koreans like new arrivals and use websites which sell used things similar to thrift shops. If someone buys something in a thrift shop, people think that person is poor. Whereas, Canada things are much different: CANADIANS enjoy going to thrift shops to get cheap things( and they are right). One of our students bought an electric rice cooker and it worked well. It was just 10 dollars. In Minho's opinion, there are a lot of interesting things to find. Actually Minho couldn't find anything he wanted to buy, but, he was excited to be there. Heajin needed to buy a rice cooker and there was good deal. So she got it!!!! We also had so much fun trying on the clothes. You should go inside one and try some crazy clothes on! Check out our style!
