thrift shops

Used goods retailers

Thrift shops are retail stores selling secondhand goods, typically clothing, furniture, and household items, at low prices.

Many are run by charitable organizations: I found this jacket at a thrift shop for five dollars.

The appeal combines bargain hunting with sustainability and the possibility of discovering vintage treasures.

Also called thrift stores.
