12 things you should never buy at a thrift store

Anything that looks damaged or stained.

While most thrift stores are pretty strict about which donations actually hit shelves, there’s no uniform standard for deciding which items will end up on racks and which won’t. Because of this, it’s important to be critical of items you’re considering purchasing.

Bargain Babe recommends thoroughly checking anything you’re considering buying to make sure it smells OK, doesn’t have stains, fits, and is in otherwise good condition.
You probably wouldn’t wear damaged clothes, so there’s no reason to buy them that way.
