Thriftaholic — Thrift & resale discovery See what’s on the racks before you go. Thriftaholic is a community app for thrifters, vintage hunters, bargain shoppers, and resellers who want a faster pulse on secondhand inventory. What you can do Map — Find thrift-oriented stores around you, pan to new areas, and search for stores in that region. Feed — Browse photos of finds from other people (Premium gets earlier access to the newest posts). Stores — Open a store to see recent posts tied to that location. Post — Share photos of items you spot and help others know what’s in stock. Wishlist — Save what you’re hunting for; Premium can enable alerts when likely matches appear. Scanner — Point your camera at a label or item for AI help with pricing context (free limits apply; Premium includes more scans). Profile — Earn points and level up ranks as you post and participate. Who it’s for People who love thrifting and resale—not generic mall shopping. Whether you’re building a wardrobe on a budget, curating vintage, or sourcing for resale, Thriftaholic helps you discover stores and see what people are finding in real time. Important Thriftaholic is for discovery and community sharing. It is not a marketplace—you don’t buy or sell with other users inside the app. Location is used to show nearby stores and relevant posts. Most features need an internet connection. Support & legal links are available in the app. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ Terms of Service: https://www.morobo.org/apps/thriftaholic/terms/ Privacy Policy: https://www.morobo.org/apps/thriftaholic/privacypolicy/ © Morobo.
