20 Of The Best Sims 4 Thrift Store CC Sets For Realistic Builds

Hey Simmers, let’s go thrift shopping! One of my favorite things to do is spend time in a thrift store, going through the endless racks of clothing and diving into the shelves looking for hidden trinkets or antique treasures. The Sims 4 High School Years expansion gifted us with Thriftea, but to me, it feels very empty and lacks the personality of a real thrift store. With the help of these CC decor items, you will be able to create your own Sims 4 Thrift Store that feels more fun, more vintage, and more real; no matter if you’re going for a more upscale second-hand shop feel or a vintage thrifting experience, there is something on this list for everyone!

Packing Boxes by SimmerKate
