Matthew Breeden, aka Breezy, stands in front of a mountain of used clothing at Goodwill on Cockrill Bend.
Note: This episode originally aired on March 14.
Scouring the racks at a secondhand store is a time-honored way to score stylish clothes on the cheap in Middle Tennessee. But the best bargains are getting more difficult to come by as goods are snatched up and sold under a different category: vintage. Sometimes, the markup can be eye-popping, so high-quality clothes or last season’s designer duds are out of reach for thrifters.
The guests discuss the differences between vintage and thrift stores, and who benefits from this popular type of shopping in Nashville.
Also in this episode, WPLN Morning Editor LaTonya Turner talks about resources available to homeowners who might be struggling to hold onto their house.

- LaTonya Turner, WPLN morning editor
- Erin Gabriel, social and digital media manager at Goodwill Industries of Middle Tennessee
- Anita Smith, thrift shopper
