“You do wanna check for any stains that can’t come out, any rips, tears, buttons, zippers,” Morgan said. “Make sure everything’s working, unless you’re really handy with a needle.”
Morgan said a lot of second-hand stores will have additional discounts on top of their already discounted items.
“At the front of the store they’re gonna have what is the color of the week,” Morgan said. “You really want to pay attention to that because it’s 40% off.”
Morgan was able to help us find 12 work wardrobe items for $100.15.
