Value Village is a chain of second hand stores in North America. I am a big fan of second hand shopping, for clothes and homewares. Part of it is that things are cheaper there, but I happily spend money on other new things. The bigger part is that it is just more interesting. If you go to a "regular" clothing store, you just see a bunch of the same things that represent the fashion of the season. Chez VV you find a much wider variety. The prices do mean I am much more willing to take a chance on something, because if it ends up being a terrible fit it doesn't matter much.
My latest purchase there was some glassware. I have become interested in cocktail making, and have built up an odd assortment of fancy glasses for it, like the ones in the back of the picture below. The small ones in the front I got for tequila shots at the last class of the continuing education Spanish class I am taking.
