Thrift Shops

Writer/Producer: Rosie Emery

Do we always have to buy everything new; what about the concept of re-using, of buying things that have already been made, bought and used by someone else? For those of us who do love to shop, but who consciously wish to lessen our ecological footprint by keeping stuff out of the landfills, the aisles of Thrift and Antique stores are delightful places to find great bargains, ancient treasures and even the odd fabulous couture outfit!

Many of the thrift and resale stores also benefit worthy causes such as the environment, the homeless, shelters for women, the physically challenged and disadvantaged amongst us.

From upscale furniture, couture outfits, vintage clothing and jewelry to household appliances and even the kitchen sink we will show you how Southwest Floridas consumers can find everything they need and help to keep stuff out of the landfills!
