Thrifters are smart, fun, and super savvy. Did we mention smart? Kinda sounds like YOU.
Thank you for being on this journey with us to inspire a new generation to think secondhand first. Did you know? We upcycled and extended the life of 20 MILLION items together in 2018. 20 MILLION. That’s a lot! Our planet thanks you. Now let’s get 2019 off to a super-thrifty start. Thrift does come from the word “thrive” after all…
This year, we introduced a few new things to UP your thrifting experience and make it even easier (and more fun!) to choose used. If you haven’t discovered them yet, check them out in 2019! Goody Boxes (our personal styling service), Bundling (shop all week, ship at the end), Affirm (thrift now, pay later), Remade (thredUP’s exclusive label with a 40% Buyback Guarantee), Rescues (a mystery box full of treasures), price-drop notifications, and so much more.
“I just think we live in a world now where we really value our dollar and want to get the most out of it and so if we can reuse and recycle, we’re going to go for that, before we buy brand new.” – Ashley Bruce, Store Manager of Gordmans and thredUP’s in-house pop-up shop
