The Bay Area has long been famous for its sense of style and its passion for environmental issues. So it should come as no surprise that this is one region that loves to do a little thrifting.

Shopping for vintage treasures doesn’t just save dough, it’s also a great way to reuse and recycle clothing and decor instead of wasting energy and resources on making new stuff. The opposite of the fast fashion trend, thrift shopping is part of a sustainable lifestyle, experts say. It’s also popular pastime with millennials hunting for vinyl, antique lovers and garden variety hipsters searching for cool couture.
