Local thriftstores really don't get enough love! Garage sales too. Local thriftstores are basically just garage sales open year-round! hahaha. I finally went to Farm Girl Antiques in Milwaukee, recently, after many years of thinking about it. They're only open like 3 days a week for five hours each day. And it was so so cool.

I completely agree! I feel lucky to even have one near me, since the town I grew up in was very suburban and only had a Salvation Army. Garage sale season was one of my favorite times of year though, even as a kid. There's something so fun about sifting through other people's junk. Also, thanks for mentioning Farm Girl -- I've never heard of it but now I wanna go!
