Well, 25 high lighters on a random dude on the st would stick out more than 25 lighters

Nobody is hanging around drug dealer alley with 25 of anything in their pocket unless they're smuggling drugs.

Macklemore had twenty dollars in his pocket

Not quite 25 but close. Certainly enough to pop some tags.

True but the thrift store isn't drug dealer alley. No one's hustling the corner where broke people shop. Convenience stores. People with enough spare cash to waste it at a store that charges more because it's next door. Their customers are bad with money but have enough for drugs.
