Maybe for adults, but those consignment stores are AMAZING for buying clothes for kids. We’ve saved a small fortune buying very nice clothes for our kids for pennies on the dollar. Same with shoes and cleats for various sports.
My kids always had designer duds on the cheap, too. They never knew. They just saw ‘new’ clothes on their beds to try on and everyone was happy. When they were teens, I introduced them to the Wonderful world of Thrift. :)
And it was a regular ‘thing’ for me to show up in the rooms with an empty box and instructions to fill it with clothes that no longer fit and toys they had tired of or books we’d all read 100x over.
I’ve gotten stuff from Land’s End and LL Bean and other name brands with the tags still on them.
If you’re thorough in looking, you can make some great finds.
