i shop thrift stores all the time, although it certainly does take longer to find stuff.... and true, there is MUCH less available in plus sizes.
i keep hearing "but its USED. someone else put it on!" and "OMG, what if they had lice?" when i talk about Goodwill. they dont seem to GET that the shiny stuff in the mega mart there has been tried on, and on, by a lot of people.... and having read the customer suckage posted by people who work in chain clothing stores..... (shudder) well apparently the clothes in my local thrift store are probably cleaner.
Polyester will indeed kill you ded in hot weather.
