Stretching Every Dollar: Why Smart Shoppers Are Turning to Resale — and How EH Treasures Helps

In today’s uncertain economy, more Americans are rethinking how they shop.

Recently, Goodwill Industries International surpassed $7 billion in annual sales for the first time — a milestone that highlights a much larger shift in consumer behavior. Shoppers are becoming increasingly intentional with their spending, navigating inflation, higher grocery and rent costs, and slower job growth while still wanting quality, style, and value.

According to Michelle Meyer, chief economist at the Mastercard Economics Institute, consumers are becoming “far more value-conscious.” Even discretionary spending hasn’t disappeared — it’s simply evolving. People are stretching their dollars wherever possible, turning to resale and secondhand shopping as a smarter way to buy.

This broader trend is lifting the entire resale space, including places like ThredUp and Savers | Value Village — but at EH Treasures, we believe value shopping doesn’t have to mean digging through racks or settling for whatever happens to be available.

It can be curated. It can be intentional. And it can still feel exciting.

Value Meets Sustainability

Smart shopping isn’t just about saving money. It’s also about making choices that matter.

Every pre-loved or vintage purchase helps reduce landfill waste, lowers demand for new production, and supports a more circular economy. At EH Treasures, sustainability isn’t a buzzword — it’s at the heart of everything we do.
