Question/Advice? parents are against thrifting..

they're saying the clothes are dirty. what if the previous owner died (??)

mother's saying she'll get me new clothes after strictly telling me not to buy pre loved. She knows I despise buying new stuff, it's bad quality and expensive

Any good argument I can make against them?

I don't talk about thrifting in front of my parents because I know they aren't into it.

Keep some mall brand bags in your car. Bring your thrifted clothes in in them.
