Buying secondhand is a great way to reduce waste and extend the lifespan of clothing, furniture, and everyday items. Instead of buying new, explore thrift stores like MINDS Shop and New2U for quality pre-loved fashion. For furniture and homeware, you can browse platforms like Carousell for secondhand finds. Clothes swaps are another great way to refresh your wardrobe without contributing to textile waste—look out for community swap events or host your own with friends. Choosing pre-loved not only saves money but also reduces demand for new production, helping to lower carbon emissions and resource consumption.
