The place for upple middle class-middle class hipster, emo, indie, scene, etc... kids/teenagers/young adults to try to find clothes that look like they are from stores like Urban Outfitters that they can't shop at even though they have plenty of money because of the superficial convinction that while orginality can be BOUGHT at a thrift store, it cannot be bought at a mass retailer...
Or I guess where people shop to SAVE MONEY...although you can get new clothes on sale or better quality used on ebay for almost the same price anyway.

Mark ( browsing through the rack at Urban Outfitters): This stuff is sooo commercial and unoriginal, it really doesn't suit my original, sophisticated, raw, independent spirit.. (makes face)
(insert light bulb here) I know!! I'll go to a THRIFT STORE where I can buy the same crappy, low quality clothes but with a more ill fitting cut, even shittier colors, and the great musty smell of body odor and decay ! Then I'll look so original just like all my friends who wear the same ill fitting, smelly garb. Fabulous.

When you're stealing someone else's memes and posting them on your own social media sites as if they were your own.
Marc is always thrift stealing other people's memes! Nothing about him is original on his timeline except for his name.

A place where Whatsherface is forced to go to by her "friends", cheerleader, so and so, and the ugly one. One or two cent each item.

Going to Bars on busy nights such as Valentine’s Day to “shop” for someone else’s unwanted “Second Hand crap”.
Jacob was feeling lonely on Valentine’s Day, so he went downtown around midnight to do some “Thrift Shopping”.

I could spend money on this salon recommended styling gel, or I could just grab this thrift goop and call it a day.
