Some days it's the usual suspects with sneakers and sunglasses... and other days, it's little bursts of magic. We always stop by the sweetest lady who sells fresh fruit--her plums? Chef's kiss. Five bucks a bag and worth every cent. But what I really love are those Friday/Saturday vendors who come out of nowhere with tables of old, random treasures. No rhyme, no reason, just hidden gems priced like it's 1994. That's the thrill of it. It's not fancy, but that's the charm. People are out, chatting, soaking up the sun--it's just a really nice vibe. Definitely worth stopping by if you're in the area. You might leave with a bag of fruit, a vintage trinket, or just a smile.

Thrift adventure on a large scale! This is a pair of large shops on their own campus off the main…read moreroad. One shop is all clothing, nicely organized in an airy, bright space with dressing rooms. I'm a weird size, so I didn't linger, but in general, selection looked "nice," more consignment-store style than down-and-dirty thrifting. The other shop is simply made of awesome. The main area is a pleasant selection of furniture, linens, and "better" decor. Then there's The Little Shop off through a doorway, which is crammed with so many bargains, experienced thrifters will whimper. This section has all sorts of things (toys, decor, china, useful household stuff). These are paid for separately from the main store, and you find out the price by asking. Prices turn out to be low. It's much more compact back here, so don't bring a huge handbag and do pick up a shopping basket if you start seeing temptations.

Writer Friend lives for thrifting. She had been trying to get me to go with her to check out STS…read morefor a while. Well, she got the chance, and dragged me through the shelves, stacks and racks one morning. I will say this: you really need to know what you're looking at, and it's general worth. There are a few gems hidden among the dross, so it's important to be able to tell them apart. WF found a couple of candlesticks, that looked the same to me, and each priced at $3. She looked at both, picked up one, and explained that one was pewter and probably worth $50-$100, and the other one was cast aluminum, and not even worth $3. It seemed that these difference were all over the store; similar things priced the same, with one being a bargain, and the other being a waste. One thing that I didn't appreciate was one of the old ladies shadowing us while we made our way through the shelves; she was always within a few feet of us. Maybe she wanted to be close by in case we had questions, but it made me feel like a criminal she wanted to catch in the act. When we finished exploring this room, we headed over the other one, which was primarily clothing and textiles. WF was looking for curtains that she could repurpose for another project. This room was bright and cheery, as opposed to the other one, with windows covered and few lights. The clerk in this area barely noticed us when we walked in and didn't leave her seat behind the desk the entire time we were there - she didn't even respond when we said "Good morning!". We didn't last long in here, since there was nothing WF saw that met her needs. If I had more room, and a better grasp of antiques, I may come here more often, if for nothing else than to find those hidden bargains and resell them on eBay. Right now, with limited storage and a hatred of dusting, I'm just going to limit myself to browsing.

Loved this place! Stopped by yesterday because I was meeting up with a friend and we went through…read morethe main store and the Annex. For those who haven't been in a while, they've been renovating. The main building is now just the main floor and basement (basement is bright and cheery, not quite finished yet, though). The second building is across the way and the entrance is located across from the All-American Valley General Store. The prices vary from insanely good deals to pretty darn expensive. And some of those expensive pieces need some reno loving. Mostly reupholstering for couches/chairs and refinishing hard-wood tables. The annex holds the clothing, books, house nick-nack pieces and personal accessories. Display doors can be challenging to move but don't need the help of a sales assistant. There are some really great prices for the random pieces that find their way into this store. I'm looking forward to coming back to this store. Friendly staff, interesting pieces and beautiful displays should make the trip out of town worth it!

Nice eye for decorating and using space wisely, SAC staff! I've bought a lot of things from here, often finding hard-to-find gift items. They almost always have something along the lines that I'm searching for, and are also surprisingly reasonably priced. I could seriously spend the whole day perusing around this store, if time permitted. It's like stepping back in time, only upon leaving the store do you remember what calendar year it is. Great place to shop for antique or vintage ANYTHING!

The owners are very knowledgeable and even on their by-appointment days, if you call ahead with a specific need, they'll make sure to help you with your request. I am not allowing myself to buy too much else or I'd spend far too much time in the other side of the shop--if you're looking for one-of-a-kind items for your house or refinished/renewed furniture, though, that's something to definitely check out.
