Goodwill’s $800 Used Jordans?!

You won’t believe this—someone found a pair of used Air Jordans at Goodwill for $799.99! Not new, no box, just plastic-wrapped and priced like they’re straight off StockX. Thrift store shoppers are calling out these wild prices, especially since most people go there for deals, not sticker shock. Still, thrifting usually saves you big bucks and helps the planet. Ever found a crazy price at a thrift store? Spill your stories! #Shopping #thrifting #goodwillfinds

Mini Life Vests for Drinks?!

Just spotted: tiny life jackets and hoodies for your drinks—yes, actual clothes for your beverages. They’re supposed to keep your drink cold, but honestly, do we really need to dress up our cans? People online are roasting these $30+ “drinkwear” for being totally impractical and just more plastic waste. If you want to keep your drink cool, a regular koozie or reusable bottle does the trick (and is way better for the planet). Would you ever buy these? #Shopping #consumerism #waste
