But one thing that has come from lockdown is a change in how we all view shopping. Charity shops have reported a massive increase in their sales since retail reopened, and younger people are flocking and queueing outside to get something really unique.

Online charity shop, Thrifity.ie have launched their 'Secondhand September' campaign which is encouraging people to buy pre-loved clothing this month!

James Mac is a make-up artist, best known for his appearance on BBC series 'Glow Up' and he joined Dermot and Dave to explain why he loves secondhand clothing, and how he ended up raiding his mothers wardrobe for something recently!
