Second-hand
What is second-hand shopping?
Second-hand shopping is buying and using products that were previously owned by someone else, rather than buying brand new items. This includes things like clothing, furniture, electronics, books, toys, and loads more.
Buying second-hand lets you get quality items for much less than buying new. It also helps the original owners make some money from stuff they don't use anymore by selling it on. This creates a win-win situation for everyone involved.
By giving pre-owned goods a longer life, second-hand shopping cuts down on waste and reduces the need for new materials and manufacturing, which is great for the environment.
Choosing used over new helps both buyers and sellers get more value from items, keeping them in use for longer instead of ending up in landfill.
