💸♻️ Why Second-Hand Shopping Just Makes Sense
Remember when second-hand shopping was seen as digging through dusty bins in crowded thrift shops? Those days are over. Today, buying second-hand is smart, eco-conscious, and easy on the wallet — and it’s quickly becoming the new normal.
đź’° Save Big Without Sacrificing Quality
On average, second-hand shoppers in the U.S. save about US $1,760 a year (that’s roughly C$2,200 back in your pocket).
And you’re not alone. With 93% of Americans shopping online for pre-loved goods and the global resale market projected to hit US $350 billion by 2028, second-hand is officially mainstream.
🌱 A Simple Way to Help the Planet
Buying used isn’t just thrifty — it’s one of the easiest ways to fight climate change.
-
Swapping one second-hand garment for new can cut 2 billion pounds of COâ‚‚, equal to taking 76 million cars off the road for a day.
-
Fabric recycling saves an average of 8.41 lbs of carbon, 16.48 kWh of energy, and 89 gallons of water per item.
That’s a big environmental win for small shopping choices.
🔧 Quality That Lasts
Second-hand doesn’t mean second-best. Many older products were built tougher than today’s “planned obsolescence” models.
