Industries International, which operates more than 2,000 second-hand
stores across the U.S., said sales have increased nearly 7 percent
over the first nine months of the year. More specifically, she said
store managers in New York City — the epicenter of the Wall Street
meltdown — were noticing new faces in their shoppers' midst lately.
Another discount avenue that is growing in popularity is sample
sales, where fashion companies aim to unload excess goods at deep
discounts. They have traditionally been held in cities like New York
or Los Angeles, but a number of companies have emerged that now do
the same thing online.
