Secondhand Provides More Bang for Back-to-School Bucks.
"Bohemian" or "BOHO," one of fall's most fashion-forward looks, is easily recreated on a basic budget by shopping at Savers/Value Village stores. Pull off this fun, flirty look by pairing classic pieces, such as form-fitting jeans or skirts paired with pretty feminine tops and sassy shoes.
This fall, teens nationwide will try to create that BOHO look without breaking the bank. And while parents may not know exactly what that BOHO look is, they do know the value of a dollar.
In fact, according to the National Retail Federation's (NRF) "2005 Back-to-School Consumer Intentions and Actions Survey," parents in the United States plan to spend 8.2 percent less than last year on school supplies and clothes and 77 percent will turn to discount retailers for back-to-school basics. Enter Savers Inc and its 200 Savers and Value Village thrift stores across the US, Canada and Australia.
Savers satisfy fashion-forward teens and penny-pinching parents with more than 5,000 one-of-a-kind items arriving at its stores daily. BOHO, preppy or rebellious, Savers' secondhand prices make finding serious style a cinch.
"They know a hip wardrobe is extremely important to teens-it's their identity, their chance to express themselves," said Gina Cohen, communications specialist for Savers. "With a variety of brand names and vintage pieces to choose from at a fraction of the cost, shopping at Savers is a practical yet stylish way for teens to look great and unique, at prices that make parents happy."
