[quote=Anonymous]I am one of the ones asking for helpful tips/advice from wealthy thrifters. Our HHI is 150k, not 1mil. Here are the things we do: -I shop ThredUp for both myself and my kids. -I shop upscale consignment stores/vintage stores in Bethesda for myself and my kids. -I do not buy used shoes/underclothes/socks. -I do use coupons whenever possible. -I do keep an eye out for any savings (ie. some companies offer deals with cellphone providers, insurance company deals, etc) -We do not buy used mattresses or bedding but I have two gorgeous dining/kitchen tables that would have easily cost $4000 brand new- but I picked out what I wanted and waited for them on CL. I have also purchased some toys and books used as well. -We do go out to eat and my DH and I do go on dates. It's important to us. All of this to say, we're trying. [/quote]
