When did you start speaking American, Aunt? We Brits bargain hunt, charity shop or rummage; we go car booting or trawl the junk shops. We may be thrifty but we don't thrift.
Load More Replies...Heyyyy Bored Panda, can you tell me why you've decided to be a disgusting pile of dung people and started asking me for money to not have you override my browser's dark mode? And why you keep giving me pop-ups asking me for money? Are you fúcking serious? You want money for copy pasting shít from Reddit? Maybe you should consider fúcking all the way off instead.
Anyone can write for boredpanda why not a bunch of articles written by those of us who hate these new changes... such as mine https://www.boredpanda.com/?p=7635181

Load More Replies...some of these are great, but remember, its not 'thrifty' or 'thrifting' if you're just addicted to buying random tat from charity shops and car boots just because it's 'cheap'.. thats not to say their isnt an entire ecosystem based around the cycle of random tat from shop to home and back to shop again, its more of a support network for the chronically afflicted.... I'm as guilty as charged...
