Consigment Shops Embrace the Interwebs

Jan 11, 2012

I do the majority of my shopping online.  This is partly because I work long hours, but mostly because I can always find my size online, I can always find the best price on my item and using eBates, I can earn cash back.  So why would I ever go to the mall? 

Perhaps this is why I don’t spend as much time cruising local thrift, consignment and vintage stores.  I know that there are great deals to be had, but it just seems like such a hassle.  Enter Current Boutique, a local consigment boutuique who posts some of their recent acquisitions online

These Christian Louboutin wedges are calling my name!  Maybe I’ll take a trip to their Logan Circle location and do some shopping at an actual brick and mortar store? (Quelle horreur.) 

Frankly, I think it’s a great idea for consignment shops to post photos of their wares online.  It lures people into the shop and helps you get a feel for what else you might find when you visit.  So is Current the only local shop that’s gotten into the act or do you ladies know of more forward-looking shops?
