What are these online thrift stores? I’d like to check that out
Great idea with the reusable containers
ThredUp, Mercari, and Poshmark are my go-to's right now. If theres something specific im looking for, sometimes eBay. There's secondhand sites like DePop and Vinted that offer more specialty vintage items, and then other sites that offer secondhand luxury/designer.
Oh and if you get into thrifting make sure you get a de-piller. They take off all the little clothing nubs and make stuff look new.
If you are really savvy with tags and refined searches, Etsy is still an alright place to find awesome "vintage" (thrifty) stuff. It just takes a little bit of work but once you have sorted, it really is quite alright.
