What is National Thrift Shop Day?
On National Thrift Shop Day, August 17th, get ready for some bargain shopping! Almost every town in the United States has a thrift store or secondhand store. So there is no excuse not to celebrate.

A thrift store (also known as a thrift store, charity shop, hospice store, second-hand shop, consignment, or resale shop) is a retail store that sells gently used items. Typically, charitable charities run the stores to raise funds in accordance with the organization's stated charitable cause. If times have been difficult, the organization may also use some of the items to assist others in getting back to their feet after a disaster or when times have been difficult.
The public supports the bulk of services, while volunteers staff the stores. Since the items were donated, prices have been reduced to a lower price to the buyers.
People bring their used items into the store to sell in a consignment store. When the item sells, the consignment store keeps a cut of the proceeds.
