Pehea e kūʻai ai i nā mea nani Vintage ma nā hale kūʻai ʻo Thrift

Ua lilo ka ʻōlelo hōʻino ʻia o ka hale kūʻai maʻemaʻe o ka hale kūʻai ʻōpala a i ʻole nā ​​​​wahi kahi o ka hale kūʻai i lalo a i waho.

ʻO ka ʻōlelo aʻoaʻo maikaʻi ʻo ia ka launa pū me nā limahana o nā hale kūʻai āu e kipa ai. Ua ʻae kekahi kākau ʻōlelo iaʻu e ʻimi i nā pahu mea hoʻonaninani ma mua o ke kūʻai ʻana iā lākou a waiho i waho ma ka papahele. Hōʻike mai kekahi iaʻu i ka wā e loaʻa ai iā lākou ka nui o nā mea nani i hāʻawi ʻia.

E ʻike i ka wā e loaʻa ai i ka hale kūʻai kā lākou mau mea kūikawā. Hoʻokahi hale kūʻai ma koʻu kūlanakauhale he 30% ka uku uku ma ka Pōʻakolu. E noʻonoʻo i koʻu lā kūʻai!

I kekahi manawa e hoʻokomo ka luna hale kūʻai i ka nui o nā mea nani i loko o kahi ʻeke plastik a kūʻai aku i ka ʻeke no ke kumu kūʻai paʻa. Inā loaʻa iā ʻoe kēia, e nānā pono i ka ʻeke e like me kou hiki - ʻaʻole ʻae ʻia ʻoe e wehe iā ia, a he nui nā ʻōpala i loko, ʻo ka hapa nui o nā mea kūʻai ʻole, a he nui nā pahu Mardi Gras plastik. Ua kūʻai au i kēia mau ʻeke i kekahi mau manawa, a he mea leʻaleʻa ka hoʻokaʻawale ʻana i nā mea āpau, akā ua hōʻeha wau i ka hāʻawi ʻana i ka hapa nui o ia mau mea i kahi hale hānai no nā hana hana. Ua loaʻa iaʻu kekahi mau ʻāpana maikaʻi loa ma kēia ʻano, akā ʻaʻole wau i manaʻo he kūpono maoli ka manawa a me ka pilikia.

ʻO ka hapa nui o nā hale kūʻai waiwai he pahu aniani kahi e mālama ai lākou i nā mea ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi. E noi e ʻike i nā ʻāpana hoihoi iā ʻoe, a e nānā pono iā lākou. E nānā pono i nā pā kahi e kau pinepine ai lākou i nā mea liʻiliʻi. Ua loaʻa iaʻu kahi kāʻei kāʻei kālā ʻAmelika ʻAmelika, me ka pōhaku turquoise i loko a kau inoa ʻia e ka mea pena, e kau ana i loko o kahi ʻeke paʻa zipa ma kahi pā. Ua kūʻai au iā ia no $2.80 a kūʻai aku ma eBay no $52! Ua ino loa ia, aka, ua poni au a nani.

Me he mea lā he nui nā wati i kēlā mau hihia. E makaʻala i nā kope o nā mea hana kaulana, a kūʻai wale i nā inoa inoa āu e ʻike ai. E hōʻoia i ke kūlana maikaʻi o ka pūʻali a ʻaʻohe ʻōpala ma ke aniani. ʻAʻole paha e hana ka wati, no laila e hoʻolālā e hoʻolilo i $5 a i $7 no kahi pākaukau. Inā kūʻai ʻoe no ke kūʻai hou ʻana, e ʻoluʻolu e hoʻokomo i ke kumukūʻai o kahi pākaukau e ʻike ai inā pono ke kūʻai ʻana i ka wati. Loaʻa iā ʻoe kahi manawa ma laila - ʻaʻole hiki ke hana ma hope o ke kau ʻana i kahi pākaukau hou.

Ke kūʻai nei ʻoe i nā mea nani no kāu hōʻiliʻili ponoʻī a i ʻole no ke kūʻai hou ʻana, aia kekahi mau mea e ʻimi ai i ka wā e nānā ai i nā mea kūʻai waiwai.

1. Kūlana, kūlana, kūlana:

E ʻike ʻoe i nā ʻano mea nani a pau i nā ʻano kūlana āpau. E ʻimi i nā mākia haʻihaʻi, nā pōhaku e nalowale ana, nā mea metala i pau ʻia, a me nā mea ʻōmaʻomaʻo ma nā leo gula. ʻAʻole hiki ke hoʻomaʻemaʻe ʻia ka mea ʻōmaʻomaʻo. E hāʻawi i kēlā. E nānā i ka paʻa o nā hoʻonohonoho pōhaku, a inā ʻaʻole, e makaʻala i ka ʻāpana - pono ʻoe e hoʻopaʻa iā lākou. Inā haumia ka ʻāpana hiki iā ʻoe ke hoʻomaʻemaʻe. E lawe mai i ka loupe a i ʻole ke aniani hoʻonui ikaika i hiki iā ʻoe ke nānā pono i ka ʻāpana.

2. Ua pūlima ʻia ka ʻāpana?

ʻO ka inoa ma ke kua o ka pine a i ʻole ke apo pepeiao, ma ka puʻu o ka lei a i ʻole ke kūpeʻe lima, a i ʻole ma ke kiʻi pepeiao ka "hōʻailona" o ka mea hoʻolālā. Hiki ke ʻoi aku ka waiwai o nā ʻāpana i hoʻopaʻa inoa ʻia ma mua o ka mea i hoʻopaʻa ʻole ʻia, akā he nui nō hoʻi nā "nani i hoʻopaʻa ʻole ʻia" ma waho. E ʻimi i ka inoa, a inā he hōʻailona kope, ʻo ia hoʻi, ua hana ʻia ka ʻāpana ma hope o ka makahiki 1955. ʻAʻohe hōʻailona - he ʻāpana waina maoli paha kāu. E ʻimi i nā helu 925 ma nā mea waiwai kālā - ʻo ia hoʻi, ʻo ia ke kālā sterling, a inā pololei ke kumukūʻai, loaʻa iā ʻoe kahi ʻaihue.

3. Haw:

He paʻakikī ke kau ʻana i ke kumu kūʻai ma nā hale kūʻai waiwai - ʻoi aku ka liʻiliʻi, ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi, ʻoiaʻiʻo! Ke ho'āʻo nei au ʻaʻole e hoʻolilo ma mua o $3 no kahi pine, kūpeʻe lima, lei a i ʻole nā ​​apo pepeiao. Hiki paha iā ʻoe ke loaʻa i kahi mea kupanaha loa i ʻoi aku ke kumukūʻai, a inā manaʻo ʻoe hiki iā ʻoe ke loaʻa kālā mai ia mea, a i ʻole makemake ʻoe iā ʻoe iho, e hele a kūʻai. ʻO ke kānāwai maikaʻi no ke kūʻai ʻana i nā hale kūʻai ʻai ʻai, penei: Inā makemake ʻoe akā ʻaʻole maopopo, e hoʻonoho iā ʻoe iho i palena, e ʻōlelo i $5. Inā ʻaʻole maikaʻi loa ia, ʻaʻole ʻoe i waho. E like me ka mea i ʻōlelo ʻia, ʻike hou aku kekahi poʻe limahana hale kūʻai e pili ana i nā mea nani, a e kūʻai aku i kekahi mau ʻāpana kiʻekiʻe loa no ʻoe ke kūʻai aku a loaʻa kālā. Akā, ʻoi aku ka liʻiliʻi o ka huli ʻana o nā limahana ma kēia mau hale kūʻai, no laila ʻaʻole ʻike ka mea kūʻai aku i nā mea kūʻai aku.

Ma hope o ka Kalikimaka he manawa maikaʻi ia e ʻohi ai i nā mea nani Kalikimaka. E hōʻailona kekahi mau hale kūʻai i nā mea hoʻomaha no ka hoʻopau ʻana iā lākou, mālama wale nā ​​hale kūʻai ʻē aʻe no ka makahiki aʻe.

Makemake au i ke kūʻai ʻana ma nā hale kūʻai waiwai - e like me ka pahu kokoleka a Forrest Gump, ʻaʻole ʻoe i ʻike i kāu mea e loaʻa ai. ʻO kēlā me kēia huakaʻi he ʻimi waiwai. ʻO kekahi mau lā he slim pickin's, akā he mau lā maikaʻi loa. I nehinei ua loaʻa iaʻu he 10 ʻāpana no $15 - he mau ʻāpana kālā nui, a he jade paha kekahi ʻāpana - ʻaʻole wau maopopo.

E hoʻomau i kāu kūʻai ʻana i kāu hale kūʻai. E ho'āʻo e hele i waho i kēlā me kēia pule, a ʻike i ka wā e loaʻa ai i nā hale kūʻai kā lākou hoʻolaha kūikawā. Hoʻopuka ka hapa nui o nā hale kūʻai kaulahao nui i nā mea kūʻai hou i ka lā a pau, hoʻihoʻi hou kekahi mau hale kūʻai i kekahi mau lā. E ʻike i ka wā e hiki mai ai kēlā mau mea, a e hele koke i laila.

E heluhelu i nā puke e pili ana i nā kāhiko lole, a e lilo ʻoe i ʻike, no laila ke kūʻai aku ʻoe i nā hale kūʻai kūʻai ʻai, e lako ʻoe i ka ʻike. E leʻaleʻa me ia, e ʻike i nā limahana o ka hale kūʻai ʻai, a hoʻi mai ʻoe i ka home me nā mea nani nani i nā kumukūʻai nani.
