This sounds like a fun activity. consignment shopping, goodwill stores,
and other cast off kinds of places can offer some of the most fun I
think to shopping. What woman doesn't like a great bargain?

Sounds like fun

But buyer be aware!

Go with the idea of being surprised in finding something than looking
for somthing very specific.

Try to know brands and prices some items may not be at a low cost. Some
Brands may be priced close to or very close to retail.

Brands can indicate quality and overall fit on the body.

Ie Old Navy vs Gap vs Banana Republic - same company but Different
quality of materials and fit

Check for stains, rips, holes, and over all how worn is the material
that can affect the price if allowed to barter. Be aware of how it
smells too.

Check to be sure the item hasn't been taylored to fit someone. The size
on the label may not be it's true size. So know your size and lengths
short of trying it on. Or try it on which leads to the next point.

Be aware the item may not be clean. This can be related to how it
smells or how many people have tried it on and it's not washed. Could
have bugs on it too

Check the return policy too.

Jus some points to have when going to thrift shops
