It's so overwhelming when you realize how much clothes there are here in the US. I am proud to be a reseller and I am proud of those of us who seek our pre owned clothing for our own wardrobes. I try not to buy anything new except undies. There is enough clothes in the world to last a few hundred years!
When I lived in Boston 30 years ago, we always shopped in the Garment district, where we'd buy lots of clothes, we'd always bought second hand clothes, still wear mostly trifted clothes. Love your video, we don't have by the pound here, except for kilo sales but they are very expensive. Even the charity shop are very expensive herein Ireland..
Welcome back to another fun thrift with me video!! I was so excited to be back at the "By The Pound" section of one of my favorite local places in Cambridge!! Be sure to hang on for the haul portion of the video which starts around minute 9! I also have an amazing vintage piece I share at the end (which was a gift from my friend) I hope you enjoy it! ❤️❤️❤️ Lori
I never park in Boston or Cambridge ... I park at one of the T stations in the outskirts of Boston or just a street I know in Chelsea or Everett or Malden I grew up there ... I park and take the T in ... less stressful then driving in cambridge or boston but now I think require masks so yeah I can;t wear a mask so no T for me . I guess I could park in Somerville and walk to cambridge ... I'll need to brain storm that for awhile to see if it is worth going
I've also found Alembika one time with a very unique print and sold well like $60and cog was only $6. Your son Rocko must be on an Outer Banks vibe with the Hawaiian shirts. lol
Fun haul, such an interesting store! My quickest test for mens vs womens pants & jeans is to slip my hand in the front pocket. With men's my hand fits all the way in, while women's front pockets are usually much smaller. :).
That knitted and knotted tunic is absolutely gorgeous!!! It’s so feminine! I will check your closet to see what size it is and the price. I just love how the store is laid out as well! It’s great marketing fir sure!!
@@LorisBostonFound I watch A vogel on youtube menopause mondays and she says after menopause it is time to be kind to our bodies and not to deprive it of food . Our bodies are desperately trying to balance the waning hormone and it can not . She made a great analogy about our bodies during menopause always in a state of fight or flight which triggers the stress hormone coritisol . She is great check her out
I think I’ve been here when I opened a store in Cambridge for H&M but I don’t remember that by the pound thing but back then I had no clue what reselling was. I’m going to have to take a trip there it kind of reminds me of Final Cut except they dumped everything in boxes. It was my happy place I could dig for hours & not even realized I’d been at it for 3 hours lol. I wish it was still opened but sadly they closed the one in my area 😩
I sold a bathing suit at the end of winter last year some people live in warm climates, some people have indoor pools in their apartment complex or people go on vacation and if they are going on vacation the stores will not have summer clothes or bathing suits so people will shop online like ebay or posh
What a cool store! I would love to dig around in there! I hear you on being bummed about the $30 parking ticket. I was rushing to a consignment appointment and saw that "flash" out of the corner of my eye and a week later sure enough I got in the mail a $125 speeding ticket with a picture of me on my way to try to make some money! Grrr! Lesson learned, moving on, just keep thrifting and listing, lol!
I love the Garment Dictrict! So psyched that they are open again. My kids shop upstairs ($$$) and I kneel and dig. 😂 My grandmother used to always tell me to not iron my linen… she said wearing is wrinkled is how people know it’s real. Ha!
Don’t be upset at a $30 ticket, my son got a $180 parking at a very small mall while at a physiotherapist appointment. I would love to go bin shopping we don’t have them , great haul 🛍♥️🇨🇦
Just realizing all the band/concert tees have sensors on them! I bet if you ask they could have taken the sensor off! Things you notice when not sweating to death🤣🤣
You should have grabbed that The Mountain Car shirt for Ryan! Lol Also it's supposed to be a popular brands as well. I haven't found it yet.... What am awesome place! If I ever make it to Boston I HAVE to check that place out! Can't wait to watch the haul! ❤️
That's awesome.. I remember when I was young I would go to this big old warehouse back in the 90's that had piles like 2 story high of clothes. Jeans one side, shirts one, etc.. I would go to the top just so I could play while my nanny would pick clothes so she can resell.
Awww yay...you will be in my neck of the woods! We have three bins locations but I usually go to the Heidelberg location. I do pretty good there! I’m so excited to see what you find in my city!
I am so excited to explore Pittsburgh! My son loves it there. ❤️❤️ I can't believe you have three bins locations, you must have a lot of fun digging! xoxo
I need to get up there and check out the Garment District! Alembika is a great find - I learned that brand from NCI Resale and Jack&Ryan - Hope it does well for you!

The Garment District gets tons of clothing end the end of the semesters from college kids.
@@chrissyb7916 So many clothes in the world
@@chrissyb7916 I grew up in Andover Massachusetts and went to a famous college in Boston :-)
@@karenkelly4385 Yes. I just read an article about the situation in Ghana where fast fashion gets dumped by the cargo ships.
@@chrissyb7916 it's tragic. I am glad to resell and also to buy clothes on the secondary market!

That bomber jacket is from a Japanese kids clothing brand called fith co. Size 140 is about a kids size 10 i think.
"but, I mean, I'm old, so...."
🤣 felt that!
Great video.
Omg, The Garment District has reopened the Buy the Pound??
I'm so excited!
The parking situation there is the reason I dont go there more 😥
Yes, the ticket was such a bummer.
Wow that looks soooo fun! Also your hair looks amazing. Great video!
Thank you Christina! I am so happy this spot is open again!!
STUDIO54 JEANS omgoodness.....incredible
I was beyond excited!!!
Your hair is beautiful, love the color
Thank you so much! I'm loving the darker color! Thanks for watching!
OMG!! Those Studio 54 Jeans!! 💕💕❤️💕❤️
I've been there, back in the late 80's when I used to visit Boston often. I'm happy to know they are still in business. =)
How fun and what a great friend! You look beautiful as well! ☺️
Thank you Lauren!
That's amazing, it's like a ball pit for grown ups!!! Looks so much fun!

Back in the day the clothes were placed in bins. Then some college kids started dumping the bins out until it looks like that's all there is now.

In case you did not know in the Hashtag part that is new on posh there is a unisex hashtag ... I had to go back in the add that to so many listings
Great to know! thank you!
You must make a fortune by thrifting used clothes! Not yard sale prices...lol
What a score with those jeans! I wish we had a garment district
I am one of your new subs! Hi!😄
Hello Quirky girl!! I love your handle!! 😘 Welcome!!
HI LORI. This was great fun
Hi Janie!! Thank you for watching. I loved being in that pit of clothes! lol~
Hello Lori & Kim 🥰😘 You're So Brave Jumping In There Not Knowing What's In There 😫🤣🤣🤣 Looks Like Fun Though 🥳🥳🥳
This is amazing Lori! Thank you for bringing us along !
Glad you enjoyed it Chary! Thanks so much for watching. xoxo
So good to know in twenty years the price hasn't gone up that much ($1 to $2) .
Just amazing!! So glad you filmed and took us along with you! Such a fun treasure hunt! We would LOVE to go there!
I've also found Alembika one time with a very unique print and sold well like $60and cog was only $6. Your son Rocko must be on an Outer Banks vibe with the Hawaiian shirts. lol
That is a great return! Yes he's channeling his inner John B! Although, I'd say he's more of a JJ kind of kid! God help me!
Fun haul, such an interesting store! My quickest test for mens vs womens pants & jeans is to slip my hand in the front pocket. With men's my hand fits all the way in, while women's front pockets are usually much smaller. :).
Wow that place looks amazing! I went to the Goodwill Bins once and it was such a horrendous experience 😵💫😑
Love it! I love pay per the pound clothing! But it always seems to make me less willing to pay up at the regular thrift stores! 🙈😂
So true Rebekah! I find myself scoffing at $5 price tags at the normal thrift! 😂
That knitted and knotted tunic is absolutely gorgeous!!! It’s so feminine! I will check your closet to see what size it is and the price. I just love how the store is laid out as well! It’s great marketing fir sure!!
Hi Lori it's great in Cambridge great shops.and music
I love Cambridge!
I can’t wait to get into the pit with you!!!
Oh girl.... we will need to bring a tent b/c we'll never leave! Maybe we can borrow one from Court 😂
I have those Allbird flats! I wear them everyday to work they are sooo comfy 😊
LOL "post pandemic pants " I read somewhere that during 2020 the average weight gain was 25 pounds
Oh that is a tough stat! I'm definitely battling with a lot of extra weight right now. Time to get focused!

Hello from Tasmania Australia. We don't have bins in Australia Wha wha. How great they are. We do have the thrift shops though.
This looks like so much fun! You found some unique pieces - would love to see more hauls from this place. 👍
Hi Kelly! Thank you! I'm sure I'll be back. I'd love to go on a Friday if they are still doing the $1/pound day!
I’ve sold a couple of shirts from that à la pica brand they were lag and look style
I stopped buying clothes this year and a lot of my clothes are thrifted. I would love to go to this place but just for my self.
omg my idea of heaveeeeeeen!! i bin thrifted at a dollar per item bin place for the first time a week ago it was sooo fun! love it!!
Ha, if that was me, I’d feel like Scrooge McDuck swimming through all those clothes 💰
I think someone else referenced Scrooge McDuck on my Instagram post! lol! I can totally see it!
What a fun thrifting adventure and haul! OMG, those Studio 54 jeans are EVERYTHING!! ❤️
Thank you! I am so excited to list them! They are amazing!
I sold a pair of Alembika a while back for $50! UGLIEST pants I ever saw in my life, lol! But that $50 sure was pretty, lol!
Haha!! Yes! $50 is pretty!
What a cool store! I would love to dig around in there! I hear you on being bummed about the $30 parking ticket.

Ooh, those tickets are tough! Best to just move forward, right.
I love the Garment Dictrict! So psyched that they are open again. My kids shop upstairs ($$$) and I kneel and dig. 😂
My grandmother used to always tell me to not iron my linen… she said wearing is wrinkled is how people know it’s real. Ha!
I thin I love your grandmother... I hate to iron, lol!
I want to make a thrift trip to Boston just to check this place out!!
Don’t be upset at a $30 ticket, my son got a $180 parking at a very small mall while at a physiotherapist appointment. I would love to go bin shopping we don’t have them , great haul 🛍♥️🇨🇦
Oh, I am so sorry...I have never heard of a parking ticket that expensive!! That's robbery!
The pit looks like my inventory room lol. Great finds! Looks so much fun!
Haha Keegan, mine too!! Thanks for watching!
Omg 😂 Please keep that clip of Lucky and put it in every video. It can be your “drum roll please” moment
I swear he does that in every video these days!
OMG All Those Amazing Band Tees 😳😳😳 There Were At Least 5 I Would Have Grabbed 🤣🤣🤣
There was a huge rack full of em!!
Hi Lori! Your hair looks fabulous. I am really enjoying your videos! So much great info. Thank you!
Thank you so much Mary! I'm enjoying the darker shade! I appreciate you watching. xo
Love those Michael kors shoes. I've been cruise shopping. I will stalk your poshmark closet to see what size they are, lol.
Aren't they so cute! I think they are a size 8...I'll list them when I get home on Tuesday. Thanks for watching.
I want a bail of clothes to go through ❤️. Take the Nike Shirt and Bleach Splatter it. Upcycle it 😉
Great ideea!
Just realizing all the band/concert tees have sensors on them! I bet if you ask they could have taken the sensor off! Things you notice when not sweating to death🤣🤣
So true Kim!! By that time we were really toast! 😂
Sundry also sold at Bloomingdale’s.
Don't list the allbirds on Ebay. They're VEROing the listings.
Oh good to know, thank you!
I am buying olive green pants since camo is popular. I am hoping some people don't want to go full camo this fall but stay in that color palette.
I'm with you Theresa. I feel like camo is cooling off a bit lately, bu that olive green color is great!
Those studio54 jeans are great!!
You should have grabbed that The Mountain Car shirt for Ryan! Lol Also it's supposed to be a popular brands as well. I haven't found it yet.... What am awesome place! If I ever make it to Boston I HAVE to check that place out! Can't wait to watch the haul! ❤️
I’m from northeast Ohio used to go to the Pittsburgh bins all the time! Enjoy
We have only one more day and I haven't managed to get there yet...fingers crossed I can go tomorrow!
Can't believe the difference in volume that you got compared to those 3 shirt s.
I know...isn't it crazy!
That's awesome.. I remember when I was young I would go to this big old warehouse back in the 90's that had piles like 2 story high of clothes. Jeans one side, shirts one, etc.. I would go to the top just so I could play while my nanny would pick clothes so she can resell.
I love it when I think “yes, put it in your cart, Lori,” and they go into the cart!
Haha!! I love that feeling when I watch other thrift with me videos too!! 😂
Is it all sizes in this place? I'm a plus size lady. I love coming to Boston from Maine
I saw a lot of plus sizes!
That place looks amazing!!! And I still can't get over those Studio 54 pants!
So amazing Laura. You'd die at this place! I wish you were here to model those Studio 54 jeans! You would rock them!!
Just have to say I love your hair now. New color? Looks great!
Yes! Thank you! New color! I tried to get my fall color back! I was too blonde!
That’s fun! It looks like playing on the ground with friends.
It was a lot of fun!
I was born in Cambridge ( moved when I was 5). I’d love to go there some time!
It's really so much fun! I love Cambridge.
People love Garth Brooks💕
Magic eraser is awesome to clean shoes.
Awww yay...you will be in my neck of the woods! We have three bins locations but I usually go to the Heidelberg location. I do pretty good there! I’m so excited to see what you find in my city!

I am so excited to explore Pittsburgh! My son loves it there. ❤️❤️ I can't believe you have three bins locations, you must have a lot of fun digging! xoxo
Love Pittsburgh and loved this video! Safe travels! ♥️
Thank you! We are loving it here in Pittsburgh, such a fun city!
Are the clothes in the Cambridge store new or used? How about the pit?
Mostly used. 👍🏼
I got Charlotte Brody pants at goodwill a few months ago and they are so nice
I hope they sell well for you! The quality is beautiful!
I love Garment District! Thanks for sharing :)
Yes! It's so much fun. Thanks for watching Crystal. xo
I'm so sorry about the parking ticket!
Thank you Karen, it was tough....good thing we had so much fun shopping! lol
Where do these clothes come from?
You dress so cute for “the pit”; when I do the bins I look like I’m going out to do yard work! Love your finds and your channel!💕🌻
AGREED! I dress like a hobo so I don’t mind if I get dirty! 😂
If I see you out and about in Pittsburgh, I’ll definitely say hi 😊😊
I’m dying laughing over you and your dog… I was laughing so hard my candy fell out of my mouth!
Lori I’m interested in your green addiddas sweatshirt. Are you listing on eBay or poshmark
OhmyGeezz, I would be in Hog heaven 🐸💋
Great fun Lori 🙋🏻♀️your friend is nice to help you
omg I saw they posted about the return of the pound sale but i didn’t realize it already started AAAA
Is the knitted and knotted listed yet? It's adorable!!
Just listed it Shannon. ❤️
Where is this
I wonder why Ryan would have thought.
I think he would have loved it!
Quite a place. But putting DVF in the dryer was risky for sure.
Huge mistake!! I tried to catch it asap!
@@LorisBostonFound Hope it did not shrink too much. Probably poly.
Greek key is the pattern on the UO hoodie
Thank you!
I think I’m going to restart my channel
A thrifters dream!
For sure!
I thought the knitted and knotted top was really cute.
Haven’t been there in years!!!
You should go!! It was so much fun. xo
You are delightful. Wish I could go digging with you! Love a good bargain hunt and friend date! Thanks for sharing
You are so sweet to say that Kelly! Thank you! It's so much fun to dig with a friend!
You look gorgeous Lori! Omg what a thrifters dream! I’m in Cali and my brother is in RI... dreaming of visiting this place. Lol
Thank you Lisa! It was a dream for sure!!
Love, love you, your TH-cam channel, and your Poshmark closet.
Thank you so much! ❤️
Love your hair!!
Thank you!
What a cool place to shop , thanks for taking us along.
Do you wash all the clothes? Just curious
I went into Studio 54 2 times when I lived in NYC and it was so fun.
I need to get up there and check out the Garment District! Alembika is a great find - I learned that brand from NCI Resale and Jack&Ryan - Hope it does well for you!
