Thrift with intention and bring the essentials you need for a productive thrifting trip!

Thrifting well isn’t about rushing—it’s about being prepared. A few thoughtful essentials help me measure pieces, jot down ideas, and stay comfortable so I can focus on choosing items that truly fit my home and style.

Pocket Tape Measures

Heavy Duty Tape Measure

Notebook

Pens

Insulated Cup – for water, coffee, soda…whatever keeps you going on a day of thrifting!

Portable Charger

Coin Purse – some stores only take cash, so a small coin purse is a great spot to stash your coins and bills while shopping

Wristlet Purse – I’m always nervous setting a purse in a shopping cart. This allows you to carry a purse, keep it near you, all while keeping your hands free to shop!
