Ok, so I’m driving home from running training tonight and (in heavy traffic) I’m bored. I happen to glance to my right through the windows of the Op Shop (Thrift Store). There’s a manequin in the window, wearing a bathrobe, a t-shirt and a pair of Homer boxer shorts. All second-hand of course.
Wait a second. They’re selling a pair of used boxer shorts?
Folks, is it just me or is there something just plain ECH! about selling secondhand boxers?

I don’t know. It takes a while to get that perfect worn-in feeling on a pair of boxers. Sounds like a great way to get them broken in, without going through all the effort.
Oh, wait! I was thinking about leather boots and baseball gloves. There is a definite Ech factor here.

No way, on the internet they pay good money for used undies!
Nobody has purchased any of mine yet ?

Sota, you made me laugh out loud. I needed that. (Not that YOUR undies are a laughing matter, of course). Thanks for the visit!
Big J, yeah I don’t know if the image of breaking in undies is working for me.

I’m with you, Pete.
I even have some of DS number 1s undies that were never, ever worn, and I can’t bring myself to hand them down to number 2.
Odd … but you’d be amazed at what some people buy.

Indeed. Maybe I can sell mine on eBay…

I know this is an old post - but I thought of you lot!
Just walked past our local op shop … they are currently selling winter weight socks, 3 pairs for $1.00
All paired and rolled up for easy take away!
Yech! *shudder*

Half-price tinia. That’s a great angle!
