It isn't really hard to find cool, not new stuff in this town. This is a pile of clothes from Crossroads, lots of fun and cheap too. Plus a used CD from Everyday that I wanted to pass along to someone else (where burning wouldn't do) and, my personal favorite- a pile of stuff from the library. I am a big fan of the library- why accumulate stuff when you can just get it on demand?
Crossroads shopping does bring up one question that I think I don't want to know the answer to:
This super cute shirt was at Crossroads, but still has the tag on it, as things sometimes do there. What do I do? Clearly in this instance I bought it- but technically it is new. When I try to justify it, I think, the point of not buying new is partially to not create demand for new things. So in theory I'm not doing that by not buying it from a regular store which would then have to restock their inventory. But Crossroads has to restock too, they just do it mostly with used stuff. I think I'm probably in the wrong here- what do you think?
