One of the best feelings is the adrenaline rush when you find a hidden gem in a thrift store. Combine that with an “all-you-can-take” concept and you get Therapist Thrift Shop’s Fill A Bag event where shopaholics get to chase that high of treasure-hunting.
From now till 30th September, savvy thrifters just need to pay $10 to receive a bag that they can fill with as many things as they can. Here’s how you can get your hands on these pre-loved goods for a steal.
Update: The event has ended a day early, on 29th September 2022, due to overwhelming response.

From now till 30th September, Therapist Thrift Shop is hosting a pop-up event in conjunction with Wink Wonk Shop that lets thrift shoppers fill a bag with as many items as they want for just $10. There are clothes for men, women, and children in sizes ranging from S to 4XL. Plus-sized items are also available at their store in Bukit Timah.
If you’re lucky, you might score apparel from brands like Zara, Puma, Adidas, and Nike to add to your thrifted wardrobe. Aside from clothes, there are also accessories from footwear to cutlery up for grabs in the store while stocks last.
Based on what some shoppers have shared on Instagram and TikTok, it’s possible to fill up a bag with 15-20 items. And compared to their usual prices of $2 or $5 per item at the thrift shop, you’re getting clothes and accessories at nearly $0.50 per piece, which is a massive difference in value. We stan a good bargain up in this house.

The trick is to pack your items as compact as possible. This is where tutorials on folding clothes come in handy. Plus, you’ll be able to take that knowledge and use it when packing your luggage for your year-end travels.
Therapist Thrift Store has held similar events in the past, with this being the fourth edition of Fill The Bag that they’re hosting. At $10/bag, it’s a lot more affordable than in previous months when bags cost $15-$18.
