About us

📚 Welcome to the Thrifty Professor! 🛍️
#professor #cancersurvivor #thriftaholic

Where academia meets adventure… and fun finds. By day, I’m a college professor, shaping young minds and grading papers with questionable grammar. By night (and weekends), I reduce stress by going to garage sales and thrift stores on a noble quest to rescue hidden treasures from dusty shelves and give them the extra credit they deserve. (Pun intended...)

This store is a mix of curated gems, retro oddities, and the occasional “Why did someone donate this?” masterpiece — all handpicked with a keen scholarly eye and a thrifter’s heart.

💡 Why am I here? Because teachers don’t get the pay they deserve… and coffee isn’t free.
💵 Your purchase reduces my need for therapy, helps purchase supplies for students, and maybe even a little extra left over for a much-needed occasional vacation. 🏖️

So go ahead — browse, buy, laugh a little. Let’s turn preloved into reloved… one quirky find at a time. 🧥📦✨
