A word from our friend Akeya:
The holidays are here! Christmas is in the air. Everyone knows you can find the cutest outfits at Goodwill, but have you ever thought about thrifting your Christmas gifts this year? Shopping for items from your local Goodwill is a great way to give back to your community!
I listed my recommendations for the best Christmas gifts to thrift below!
Outerwear
Jackets and coats are my favorite to thrift because Goodwill has a ton of outerwear. Outerwear can get expensive, so I recommend browsing Goodwill first before investing! Goodwill usually has their coats and jackets in a small section, so they will be easier to find. You may come across name brands. I recently found a London Fog jacket at one of the Goodwill locations! This jacket retails for $80-$150!
Luggage & Bags
Suitcases and bags are an excellent gift because luggage can come with a hefty price tag. Goodwill carries many bags and purses. If you have never heard of the brand, check the material. I found a genuine leather tote that I love!
Electronics
After stopping by Triad Goodwill at South Eugene Street, I noticed this store carried many working laptops and TVs. It is a great way to gift an electronic device without the expensive price tag.
P.S. Keep your eye out for the Thriftanista Tour dates this year! I will have some of these gift ideas available to shop on my rack.
Happy Thrifting!
