Be Green, Buy Vintage

Isn't it amazing what you can find shopping vintage? The truth is you're going green by buying vintage.

What are green reasons to shop at thrift or vintage stores? The Victory Thrift Store in Alberta has a brilliant, new green campaign suggesting:
"You can donate items you no longer use, reducing strain on landfills."
"You can buy great post-consumer goods, reducing the need for manufacturing."
"You can re-purpose existing items, creating new uses for old things."
