I consider myself a veteran thrifter. I first started thrifting in the early 80s, looking for cute mod hounds-tooth mini-skirts and 50s dresses in sharkskin. The 90s brought the record collector out in me and I could regularly be found flipping through crates of musty LPs looking for the rare 1980s new wave one-hit-wonder that I didn't already own. During the 2000s it became items to wear with my own band onstage.
That brings us up to today...these days I'm usually looking for interesting coats or accessories like scarves - or for vintage/cool kitchen and serving ware for food photography. Out of all the Savers locations in Vegas, I like this one the least. The shelves always seem somewhat barren and the prices sometimes rival retail! There are a few places left in town where you can find cool stuff on the cheap - this just isn't one of them.
