    Question When shopping at a thrift store, do you purchase clothing for non family members?

    Yes, I do especially for a 2 year old I know.

    A friend I know shops at thrift stores specifically for others. It's funny what she chooses for our family, however I'm always thankful even though I put them in the box to go to another thrift store.

    I have found so many people outside my family who are absolutely opposed to buying from thrift stores. I don't get it. If I can find quality stuff cheap, I'm buying it.

    Yes. If I find something that a friend collects then I will buy it and give it to them. Also I have found lovely items to give as gifts.

    I do too!

    I have 22 nieces and nephews and buying them clothes from the thrift stores is much cheaper than retail.
