It offers a taste of luxury at a fraction of the original price.
On Reddit, the Thrift Store Haul subreddit is full of incredible finds from stores worldwide.
Recently, one user shared a picture of a pair of designer shoes they picked up for just $14.
The off-white satin peep-toe high heels had a large, crystal-studded broach on the front.
Badgley Mischka made them; a brand that sells shoes for over $100.
The brand is widely known for its bridal shoes and many commenters said the shoes from the thrift store appeared to be part of that collection.
After some research, the shopper found out the heels retail for around $250.
“Looks like they were worn once and they fit me like a glove!” wrote the shopper.
“Felt like Cinderella for a second!”
In the replies, one user wrote: “Awww I wore these at my wedding! They’re a great shoe, wonderful find!”
Another added that they had spotted a pair of similar Badgley Mischka heels “at a rack store” for only $35.
This person most likely meant Nordstrom Rack, which does have several pairs of shoes from the brand on sale.
A pair of strappy, heeled sandals are on sale for $43.98, marked down from $215, and available in three colors.
Plus, a pair of $255 pointed-toe pumps are on sale for 60 percent off, bringing the price to just $101.97.
TWO OF A KIND
Most avid thrifters will tell you that it’s worth your time to scour the shoe racks at second-hand stores.
One TikToker explained that their greatest thrift find came from the shoe section at a store.
Aaron Navarro (@aarnvrr) said he found a pair of New Balance USA 993 shoes.
The gray sneakers was a bit discolored as its once-white shoelaces had turned beige over the years.
“You won’t believe what I found at the thrift,” Aaron wrote in the on-screen text.
“They were hiding from me a bit.”
Aaron had to reach all the way to the back of the bottom shelf to grab the shoes, which appeared to be hidden by another customer.
“They need some work, but for $4, they’re worth (it),” they said.
But The U.S. Sun found listings for the shoe style on eBay for upwards of $200.
Another shopper found three pairs of sneakers at a thrift store, including one that resells for $100.
