    The thrifts around here don't smell bad. They just have bad merch.

    Now estate sales, wee doggies, they can stink to high heaven. There have been many homes or estate sales I have been to where there is a robust pungent aroma that is gag worthy. I always have a tissue close by. Worst was a hoarder house, best items I ever found, worst stink I ever came across.

    As long as it smells like money. I love the smell of old attics for some reason, despite a dust allergy. Really old houses develop a scent of their own. What gets me is tobacco; I can handle dust and eau de outhouse, but tobacco smoke in quantity sends me right out the door.
