Snag @ Second Story

As the saying goes: “One man’s trash is another man’s treasure.” Thrifting is one of the best ways to discover cheap and quality gems, whether you’re looking for second-hand clothes or used appliances.

Among the many thrift shops in Singapore, Snag @ Second Story stands out with its $3 concept. Yes, you read that right, everything in the store is going for $3.

For the unacquainted, Snag @ Second Story functions as an extension of Thryft, a local thrift store that gives a new lease of life to pre-loved books and clothes. The main difference is its $3 concept, and customers get to snag old book titles and vintage clothes from Japan.

Located at Duo Galleria, Snag @ Second Story welcomes shoppers with a clean and well-organised environment, where clothes are sorted according to different sizes. Book choices also range from self-help titles to young adult classics like Nancy Drew.

NGL, I was sceptical when I first saw that each piece of clothing cost just $3. But, it turns out that you can uncover “treasures” like branded windbreakers and jeans in good condition. 

The best part? Snag @ Second Story brings in clothes from Japan, so you’re pretty much almost shopping at districts like Shimokitazawa and Nakazakicho without even booking a flight.

Furthermore, the shop restocks weekly to ensure that customers get to shop from a fresh batch of inventory. No worries if you miss out on a book that you’re planning to get ‒ you might just happen to find it the next time you visit them.

Beyond the environmental benefits that come with thrifting, the thrift store goes a step further by contributing 50 cents to charities for every item sold. This means not only do you get to shop at an affordable price of $3, but you also help to reduce waste and give back to the community.
