Socks
If they are in the original packaging, you can buy them with no problem at all, but don’t take a chance on socks at a second-hand store. They are a breeding ground for odoriferous bacteria and, sometimes a wash isn’t enough to get rid of them.
2 thoughts on “7 Common Items You Should NEVER Buy at Thrift Store”
I thought it was a law for a used store to sell a mattress without having it treated – like Goodwill and such plus they also do wash all the clothes that come in before putting them up for sale. I didn’t give it a thought as they items always smell nice and clean, never have seen dirty clothes sold at the used stores. At a garage sale, that is a different story. The dog toys and such, dishes, etc can go through the dishwasher on hot to disinfect them.
