![]() ![]() You can scroll through pages and pages of used items at discounted prices (you can sell to them too, but from what I’ve heard you won’t get much money back). What is ThredUp? So if you don’t know what ThredUp is, it is the largest second-hand shop online. All healthcare workers, delivery personnel, store workers, maintenance and construction crews (My dad has to continue working during this time, too), etc. ![]() Since I can’t go to the thrift stores, why not bring the thrifting to me?īefore I get started, I wanted to thank all of the essential personnel that are still keeping our world moving. So we’re holding our breaths and just trying to take it day by day.Īnyway, in some lighter news I thought this was a swell time to try out a goody box that I’ve been curious about. But to be honest, we’re both full of nervousness for the future as we’re both the newest additions to the team. Kevin and I are both lucky to be working from home. Like a whole pandemic, self-isolating, quarantine kinda lot. However, those companies do have referral programs so if you click a link from this article to one of those sites, I might get a small credit.A lot has happened since I last posted on here. It isn’t the cheapest option out there, but for me…it is great!ĭISCLAIMER: I was not paid to do this review and am not affiliated with Thred Up,, or Stitch Fix. I have been VERY pleased with the things that I’ve gotten. My honest review: I LOVE Stitch Fix and I will use it periodically when I need a few new pieces. But maybe it’d be a fun girls’ night – unboxing your Thred Up Goodie Boxes together to have a good laugh. Unless you want a $10 laugh (because that’s the stylist fee!), don’t do it! I will NOT use it ever again. I cannot recommend a Thred Up Goodie Box. Thred Up’s Goodie Box was a 100% total miss.Īnd the worst part – for these used pieces, they wanted $20-$30 a piece?! Stitch Fix was $30-$40 for NEW clothing. I got a dress from the red hat society – a sweater that was HUGE, a sweater that was itty, bitty, a sweater with a huge pull across the boob, a dress covered in beads…it was bad. There was no way they had even looked at my Pinterest Board or read my survey. Barry said it looked like they put everything in my box that nobody else was buying! It wasn’t a goodie box – it was a Halloween dress up box. They sent me clothes that people in their 80s would wear. It was like they didn’t even read my survey or look at my pin board. It was hilarious and awful at the same time. I tried it because I had several people who were too scared to try it ask me too! I went thru the entire process – signed up and got my first Goodie Box. I had some friends tell me that Thred Up did the same thing except with thrifted clothes! You complete a very short survey and share your Pinterest board. But what if you don’t LOVE everything in your box? Well y’all, there are even Facebook groups that you can join where you can sell the pieces you might not want and still get the full box discount. You also get a bigger discount if you purchase everything in your box. I know it is way more than I would pay for thrifted clothing. I felt like that was very affordable for nicer clothing. From both of my Stitch Fix boxes, I kept EVERYTHING.Īfter getting a percentage off because I bought all the items in the box, I ended up paying $30-$40 for each piece of clothing. I wanted someone to help me out! I had several events coming up where I needed nicer clothing. I expected it to be so expensive that I would cry and send it all back. ![]() I spent a lot of time working on a Pinterest board full of ideas to share with Stitch Fix stylists. I decided to try Stitch Fix because I thought it would break me out of my rut and that a stylist would help me get better outfits out together. ![]() That translates to black everything (ha!). I like to stick to what I know and what is safe. I know the styles that I like, but putting things together and trying new things is NOT my expertise. Here’s the thing – I am not good at choosing outfits. But in the last few months, I started to go to more events where I needed to dress business casual. Both are used clothing outlets, but Swap is my favorite place to buy thrifted styles. Their correspondence was really bad and when I did get a hold of them, they were not very nice. I am not saying they don’t have some nice clothes I have some I really like! In the case of Thred Up, their customer service was no longer good. Then they made some changes and I didn’t like it as much. I started with Thred Up and I really, really liked it. I have been buying thrift shop clothes for several years. ![]()
