Looking for a cheap and sustainable way to spice up your wardrobe? ReGroup’s $1 Sale is the perfect place to begin. Held at 955 SE Wilson from 6pm-7pm Fridays and 11am-12pm Sundays, the sale offers an affordable and fun way to broaden your style.
The $1 Sale is a combination of ReGroups donated clothes, shoes, and bags that either aren’t up to par for being purchased at the storefront or that aren’t sold after a while. These items are then sent to ReGroups second location and are dumped into giant cardboard boxes for the community to sift through.
The sale attracts a wide variety of people, whether they’re looking for a good deal or in sophomore Skye Knox’s case, something fun to do with friends. Knox has been going to the $1 Sale for over two years and almost always leaves with a few new pieces to take home.
“There’s something for everyone” says Knox. “And Going to the dollar sale is a good way to participate in the trends but also not create a bunch of clothing waste”
The $1 Sale has given the community an eco-friendly way to purchase new clothes, and ReGroup employee Hailey Liederman finds it hard to shop any other way.
“Working at regroup has made me realize how many clothes there are in the world and how easy it is to reuse them. It’s hard to buy new clothes when there are already so many” says Liederman.
