We all get urges to buy new things, with clothes often near the top of the list. Luckily, you can do some good and get your shopping fix at second-hand shops. Sometimes the fit isn’t quite right, but you can perfect your look by altering the clothes. Here’s an easy tutorial on how to hem your own jeans.

Recently, This American Life, brought this story to it’s dedicated listeners. TAL has done many stories I have loved, however this one is exceptionally good. It takes us thru the story of how lots of the tech we use every day, specifically, Apple products, are made and how the people who make the products are treated. It is worth the hour. Give it a listen.
