2012 Mini Cooper S. I can fit 2 overflowing cart loads of stuff from the bins, plus a little more. I don’t normally buy large items. I did once fit a miter saw with the stand attached in it (the lady I bought it from was shocked). It gets amazing gas mileage and is super easy to park just about anywhere. If I happen to want to go back for something bigger we do have a truck.
I like to go when the sale color changes, my GW it’s Sundays, my local mission thrift store is Tuesdays, Salvation Army has everything half off on Wednesdays. I also drive to the next big city to go the the upscale Salvation Army Boutique where they send all the better brands, everything is half off on Wed and discounts for items go up every week, based on the date it was put out. BW bins recently raised their prices but it’s still a great deal, they don’t do sale days there. I like to go in the morning on weekdays, there’s only other sellers but the sellers that go that early sell at flea markets and stuff, so they pass up a lot of stuff that I go for like vintage clothing. Since I live in Oregon, thrift store shopping and vintage clothing are very popular. While it makes for competition and higher prices, there is sooo much out there that i have no trouble finding stuff to sell. I have a ridiculous death pile.
