Has anyone found ABDL or any High Absorbency Briefs at a Thrift/Discount or Goodwill store? I seem to get bad luck, usually I see Attends low absorbency
, Tranquility ATN or unmarked brands in clear plastic. Has anyone had luck?

I found 3 unopened packs of ABDL diapers at a thrift store but they were L and I swam in them. $10/bag. Threw them in the trash on a purge as is the case with many of us. Just recently found 28 XL Goodnites for $3. I know they’re not high absorbency but it’s taken a long time to check the shops.

Yes same, usually I'll be driving and looking for thrift stores but it depends on if there are any it varies around here.

I was at Goodwill in Plymouth, Indiana I found 2 Northshore Black Underwear purchased them for like $5 a pack I believe I went to check out not making any eye contact with others, the cashier was nervously scanning it and asked "Oh are these for you or nursing home" I uncomfortably said Nursing home. It was a long embarrassing transaction. I have not gone back to that Goodwill again I should have gone when it was not busy. But thanks for sharing your side..

I rarely have issues checking out. The ABDL diapers got a very quick, almost unnoticeable glance up and then moved forward with the checkout like nothing at all. This last go around with Goodnites got a sudden pause and a Quick Look of shock from an older lady. She said “oh! Both of them.” Then proceeded to check out. Kinda glanced up like she was thinking of saying something but yeah I have a go-to “my nephew is in town”. I was concerned because I know a lot of people who shop at this thrift store because you get so many good deals. Almost get stuff for free. Hence the 28 Goodnites for $3.

I recently found some Sunkiss diapers at my local goodwill store amongst the junk diapers that were there.

I have also found Goodnites there in the past.

But mostly the lower end diaper/generic pull-ups that really don’t appeal to me.

The lower end diapers in L-XXL is what I seem to find. I imagine that someone didn’t take care of themselves or had a chronic illness that prevented them from staying active. So they got fat and had to wear larger sizes.

Same here, I have not found sunkiss at thrift store yet. I usually see generic store brands or medical

Thats similar to what I say, if someone I know see me at a store, I say it's for someone else. I usually try to go to thrift stores that where I am not likely to see people I know.
Around me in NW Indiana I look at goodwill and when a someone is in same aisle as Adult diapers, I'll look at my phone and then grab the pack when they not looking and check out. That's only when it's normally busy I do so.

I seen those too, my goodwill lately just have a lot stock of S or or Huge sizes, but sometimes there be a M/L of something generic. People donate diapers in bulk usually one size sometimes.

One time when I bought diapers at a thrifts store, the cashier assumed they were for me so she told me that sometimes they have sales. It was very awkward, because it caught me off guard. You're from NW Indiana? I grew up there, but moved across the country years ago.

The shop I found the abdl diapers told me they have 1/2 price diapers sales every so often. It was about a month later when I was buying another type of diaper.

I have over the years donated more than my fair share of test diapers from the full spectrum of the medical grade adult diapers (all white diapers). We target specifically Assessed Living Facilities for any packages that are not open and Disaster Relief Groups for the packages that have been opened.

I avoid providing to reseller.

I found three packs of XL ABU all white diapers. Two sizes too big for me but the oversize thing actually worked out well in the end! Got all three packs for under 20$ and felt like the luckiest man alive. This was at a goodwill near Minneapolis

Yup, been here and born here NW Indiana! Speaking of the thrift store, the guy checking me out at Goodwill when I bought two packs asked is this for someone at nursing home? I said yes, made me uncomfortable especially the while he was taking to get the transaction done.
