Gently used, (if at all) items and older items still in good condition that are avoiding the landfills by continuing its lifecycle.
Who Are We?
THRIFTY FINDS
THE THRIFTY FINDS CATEGORY IS A SPECIAL CATEGORY.
THIS IS WHERE WE FIND PRODUCTS THAT HAVE BEEN GENTLY USED, IF AT ALL, AND RESELL THEM. WE ARE PARTICIPATING IN THE LIVING GREENER PRACTICES AS RECYCLING IS STILL NOT BEING ACTIVELY PRACTICED AS LANDFILLS CONTINUE TO FILL UP AND WE GET CLOSER TO A FULL-ON CRISIS. WE NEED TO FOCUS ON RECYCLABLE AND BIODEGRADABLE ITEMS, SO THE PREDICTION IS THAT WITHIN 18 YEARS, THE UNITED STATES WILL RUN OUT OF ROOM FOR THE WASTE WE PRODUCE.
A FEW SOLUTIONS TO LIMIT OUR TRASH OUTPUT ARE TO DONATE, REUSE, REDUCE, & UPCYCLING.
ANOTHER OPTION IS TO BUY AND USE BIODEGRADABLE PRODUCTS SO THAT, OVER TIME, THEY CAN BREAK DOWN WHILE IN THE LANDFILLS.
