DAE remember when thrift stores felt more like treasure hunts?

I was browsing a thrift store last week and noticed all the clothes were sorted by color and brand. It made me think how it used to be a messy adventure where you never knew what you'd find... like a real hunt. Do you think thrifting has lost some of its magic with all this organization?

Notice how you don't bump into strangers digging through the same messy rack anymore. That random connection was part of the find.

Funny, always thought the quiet was better for shopping (you know, no elbows in your way). But that actually makes me miss those weird little moments now.

The quiet makes you realize, like @martinez.miles said, that those bumps were part of the charm we took for granted.
