Don't miss these areas the next time to go thrifting, and who knows, maybe you find treasure.

Try-On Racks

One person’s castoffs are another person’s treasures — and that rings true for the entire thrift store, but especially the racks outside the dressing room.

You can find great titles for a steal, although you do have to do a bit of searching. My faves: vintage children’s books and photo-laden coffee table books.

T-Shirts

This section is a treasure trove. I once found a $120 T-shirt for a mere $2.50!

These shelves hold hidden gems, from a retro replacement for your broken mug or a new glass vase to show off some fresh flowers.

Art

It’s the perfect place to find ready-made frames that would otherwise cost a small fortune at an art store. And don’t forget to keep an eye out for original art.
