Whether you are going to school, a retreat or just hauling stuff around — everyone needs a bag! Backpacks, fanny packs, purses, satchels, weekenders — you name it! A Salvation Army thrift store has a wall, an end-cap or a rack full of these types of bags and more. I always say have something in mind, but be ready for a surprise discovery!

Finding the perfect bag can be a treasure hunt. Some people suggest when thrifting to walk in without expectations but I walk in determined, with a list, but always realistic. On this haul, I found practical pieces and fun, vintage pieces. I was extremely excited to find a crossbody camera backpack by Altura Photo. This is something I have needed for a while, because it’s important to protect multiple lenses. Next, I spotted a Coach purse. This little shoulder bag in a buttery-cream color goes with practically any outfit! Then, the Quicksilver fanny pack is perfect for a short hike with its multiple zipper pockets to hold a wallet, first-aid items or a pocket knife. Not only that, but it’s convenient and hands-free. Finally, this fun, novelty suitcase caught my eye. Sure it might be for a child, but it’s cute, fun, decorative and great for storage!
