Video

Here’s the video you’ve all been waiting for!

(watch the video with better quality by raising it up to 1080p)

I went to Curio and interviewed Donna Cody, owner of the store. (Sorry for the bad audio, I had some technical issues for her interview 😦 )

I also went to Mission Thrift, a thrift store that supports Old Mission School. I interviewed Susie Fitler, who has been working there for about 3 years.

Lastly, I had my roommate, Kelsey Laroa(who I interviewed for my past post, Thrift Thrive), make an outfit from her own closet with just thrift store finds.

Thank you to all who made this video a success!

Hope you enjoyed the video 😀

Thrift Thrive

The thrift store industry has been thriving these past few years.

I went to Wilshire Hospice Hope Chest and Fred & Betty’s thrift stores and interviewed their store manager to see if this was true for their stores.

I also interviewed pro-thrifter Kelsey Laroa, a student from Cal Poly 😉
