Riassunto

Shopping is America's number one pastime, but nothing beats the thrill of thrift shopping. The Lowest prices! One-of-a-kind items! Oddities from the past!
Let Al Hoff, a twenty-year veteran of the thrift store wars, tell you why to always check the toy section (thrifts stick the best weird stuff there) or how to try on clothes in the aisle without showing your underwear!
Thrift Score is packed with fun information: Learn the origins of thrift store perennials like plastic dinnerware, polyester shirts, and paint-by-numbers. Get smart about buying used clothes. Discover new uses for previously overlooked items like bowling balls and Herb Alpert records. See how easy it is to gather up common thrift items and throw fabulous theme parties - tiki party tonight! New wave party tomorrow! Marvel at the past folly of dead fads like designer jeans, C.B. radio, and fondue.
