If you live in a gentrified or gentrifying area you may have noticed over the years that some op shops have gone all upmarket with boutique remodelling of their stores. Don’t get me wrong, it’s great to be able to walk around and not breath in musty, stale op shop air while listening to some fairly recent tunes as you swish through items on the clothing racks.
But it’s not nice to be presented with what appear to be retail prices for loads of second hand fast fashion items. If I wanted to pay retail prices for H&M garbage I’d go to H&M or any number of shitty modern ‘clothing’ stores.
So if you see a Noffs, take the opportunity to check it out and you may come away with a new pair of shorts to wear outdoors during your first of many apocalypse Winters like I’ll be doing today.
