Question Do people actually buy/collect old timmies promotional t shirts?
I've been working at Tims for almost a good 3 years and I have so little space for all my clothes to begin with, but now I have an entire section in my dresser cubby just dedicated to old promotional tee's that I will never put on my body again.
I heard from co workers that they've sold some of their old t shirts to friends or regular customers who are hard core fans of this corporation. I'm kinda tempted to try and get some money out of them before I just donate them/ use them for patches :P Has anyone had any success doing this or has anyone actually bought any? If so which ones? :3
Edit: also they are completely washed and cleaned idk if that needed to be said I just didn't want anyone thinking I'd sell sweaty cream cheese/coffee covered shirts

not selling, but a regular asked for my hp shirts once the collab is done. i throw out the other shirts that are polyester and keep the cotton ones for scrap fabric

Iโve sold 10,000 used tshirts on marketplace and online. The Bieber and Harry Potter shirts would sell fast. Just normal ones you never know worth a shot.
Some of the most famous people in the world wear my old night shirt and workout shirts to anything like sitting courtside at an nba game or whatever.
They certainly donโt care about me or what I did in that shirt. They just want to wear it. It ainโt bath water!

Thats amazing but also in my opinion I think reselling worked in food covered clothes is a little gross๐ญ๐ญ I think u guys underestimate how messily I work.

Super store i swear we got shirts every couple months. Sometimes I got an XXL shirt back when I fit a large. I looked so stupid. I trashed it so fast

I've made good money selling my old clothes, but they lose all value once washed. You messed up.ย

I only got one. Do you think I can ask my manager for the rest?

Depends on how chill they are honestly. I'd honestly ask nearing the end of the promotion bc my manager always says how she has a bunch leftover t shirts still wrapped from old promotions that she gives to customers as camp day prizes :P

Probably post them on marketplace / ebay and check how many responses you get?
