However, since I already knew I needed clothes, a store credit is fine with me.Ī label is fixed by Thred Up for you and you can just throw the items back in the mail. If you want your cash back, you pay an $8.99 return fee ( return policy here). At Thred Up, if you want to return something because it doesn’t fit, you can do so within 14 days for FREE if you choose store credit. A lot of online clothing stores make you PAY return shipping if you want to return something. And if you need clothes, it’s pretty easy to spend $79. Shipping is a flat $5.99 but if you spend $79 you get free shipping. □ Especially if there isn’t currently a code on Retail Me Not. You can wait until there’s a coupon code that way too. And Thred Up (Twice did this as well) started sending me emails. ![]() For your first order you can use my link (or a link from your friend) and get $10 off! If you can find a coupon code on Retail Me Not ( which I did for free shipping) then you can save even more! I always check Retail Me Not before buying anything online.Īlso, here’s a tip for saving – once I signed up with a friend’s link, I didn’t order right away. I was so tickled! □ I got what I needed, for a good price and I didn’t even have to leave home! Each piece averaged $6.79 which a winner in my book! Even though that’s more that what I would pay at the thrift store, I didn’t have to leave home or pay for gas…in HOPES that they would have what I needed.Īlso, here’s a great tip for you. ![]() I tried everything on and it fit like a charm. Each item is tagged, so you know it’s been inspected. I could tell everything was clean and that’s a big deal – that doesn’t usually happen at the thrift store. Nothing turns me off quicker than a package that arrives and everything is thrown in there like my 2 year old assembled it. The box was cute and the packaging was well done. When they arrived, I was super impressed. Thred Up had a few things I was looking for: undershirts for cardigans and a black cardigan sweater for church. I got to thrift without someone telling me they had to poop as I was walking about the door. I just had a minute, so I walked over and turned the computer on to look. The only difference is… I didn’t have to waste my time, effort, or gas money to check the thrift store out. And sometimes that’s based solely on mood and not how clothing looks – am I right?! So even if nothing looks cute today, it might look cute tomorrow. Then a few days later, I looked again and saw several cute things! And that’s just like thrifting… because it IS thrifting! The stock will vary from day to day. I logged in the first time and didn’t find anything that tickled my fancy. ( Some of you aren’t like that, and that’s cool – I’ll have you covered later on.) And plus, I don’t like buying new clothes if I can help it. I had already had some bad experiences ordering things online so I wasn’t excited about it. I knew I needed some better fitting clothes, but I didn’t have the time or desire to go out thrifting for clothes. So, nothing in my closet was fitting well – and I didn’t really want to wear yoga pants to Sunday School. ![]() I do still exercise in an attempt to lose some body fat, but that usually means you gain weight (muscle). I’m at a weight that’s easy to maintain (finally). I’m able to eat what I want and not worry so much about the number on the scale. It’s not bad weight and I’m still in a healthy range. I will be the first to tell you, I’m okay with my weight gain. After baby #3, I was up 10 pounds and wider around the hips…and also around the ummmm, yeah. See, here’s the problem – my clothes didn’t fit. Because if everyone else is doing it, I don’t want to. And of course, because I have some type of Ornery Disease, I didn’t want to check it out. After that, I started seeing everyone talk about it. So, I heard about Thred Up the first time from my friend Angela at The Grocery Shrink. Stitch Fix: Budget Buster or Worthwhile Investment?
