The multi room refurbished warehouse…read moreis filled to the brim with new and lightly used clothing and household items (for other thrifters it reminded me of Pop and Bernat Mill Antiques) each room was organized, clearly labeled, and well lit. I also like that they had a donation ticket kiosk at checkout , where you could pick a tag and that food pantry item would be purchased for a Rhode Islander in need. The employees I interacted with were pleasant and efficient. The prices were on par with other competitors. They also have an off street parking lot directly across the street from the warehouse. This business fills up quickly (they have a waiting line outside when they hit capacity) with patron, so my best tip would be to arrive early, so you have ample time to browse all of the different sections of the warehouse.

Wait isn't king though. Didn't like that they overcrowded the pictures and frames so much that it was very hard to see what was there. On the plus side, the furniture was in good condition and priced to sell at very low prices.

Or, what about realizing that you have a complete and utter love for all things reclaimed wood? Eyeballing things you definitely don't need? Then, you're my kind of people, and you belong at MINE. This great little off the road second hand store is filled with great finds from all eras, and will definitely have your mind in overdrive of home improvements and DIY's. From hooks to paintings from artists unknown, to records, dolls, dishes, and chairs galore. This is a great way to spend an hour or two by just poking around and thinking if you need this or that. Prices are a little higher than most, but overall, a pretty decent selection. Wonderfully friendly owner - so ask if you're looking for something in particular!

A treasure hunt with charm and value…read more Penny Wise Consignment is one of those places where you walk in "just to browse" and somehow leave with a bag full of finds you didn't know you needed. The shop is well‑organized without losing that fun, treasure‑hunt energy that makes consignment shopping so addictive. Clothing, accessories, home goods--everything feels curated enough to be worth your time, but still priced like a true local gem. What really sets Penny Wise apart is the staff. They're friendly, patient, and genuinely invested in helping you find something that fits your style or your home. There's a sense of loyalty and community here--you can tell regulars come back not just for the deals, but for the people. Inventory rotates often, which keeps things fresh, though it also means you've got to be quick if you spot something great. A little more space or updated displays would push this place into five‑star territory, but honestly, the charm is part of the appeal. If you love good value, unique pieces, and a shop that feels like it's run with heart, Penny Wise is absolutely worth the stop. Enjoy

There are great dresses for summer time and amazing cashmere year round. I recently got a cute dress for a wedding and received so many compliments on it. I always go there for baby shower and children's gifts, too. It's a perfect place to pick up a gift for a friend, of any age.
