I used to make a special effort to get to this lovely op shop on the other side of town…read more Now I find their prices match the big commercial op shops so it's not worth bothering. If you live near by you can probably afford to shop there and they do often get quality stuff so it's worth checking out.

With a chapel-inspired shaped door, this op shop is fantastic with prices and good stock. Rows of wooden racks displaying women's clothing, men's clothing, kids clothing and vintage tops are aplenty. I spotted some pretty evening dress shoes, most going for under $10. Am sure most ladies can relate to how expensive shoes are nowadays. Expect to find lots of Mummy groups here as they dive into kids international brands, such as Pumpkin Patch, Esprit and Gap, all going for great prices. I spotted plenty of vintage furnitures and stunning bric a brac pieces. This has got to be one of the cheapest op shop in the city. Bring a bag or two to stock up at your next visit. Caution: Highly addictive!

This is one of the surprisingly smaller Salvo's op-shops in Adelaide…read more Plenty of clothes to suit an older demographic and ridiculously cheap prices - $6 for a dressy business shirt? Yes please. If you're in the market for a wedding dress you'll also find yourself in luck here. The window displays and visual merchandising is quite impressive with plenty of fancy shoes, handbags and accessories on show but unfortunately they are limited. There is a super limited selection of furniture and homewares which I was surprised about as I thought there'd be a stack of old Campbelltown nanna stuff to bag. Staff are friendly and overall if you're in the area this is a peaceful little shop worth perusing for basics, business and a small selection of second hand.

The best place to park is probalby the shopping centre near the Commonwealth, Australia Post End as the road out the front can be busy. I was a bit rushed on this visit but while I was having quick look did notice a few designer lable's in there. The shop was clean & the clothes were well presented and clean which is important when you are scounging for that bargin. I will be back soon!

Oriana was so helpful and obviously really enjoys her job as we worked together mixing and matching to find 'the look'. I can honestly say, as a boy who grew up with two older sisters, I have never enjoyed playing dressup so much. Hire or buy, prices are very reasonable.

I had a couple of big garbage bags of clothes in my hands as I tried the door; realised too late…read morethat they were closed when I saw the volunteer mouthing from behind the counter, "We're closed" and read the sign. Fair enough, they were. I looked at the bins that are usually placed outside for out-of-hours donations, wondering if I could put them in there instead - maybe she was about to move them outside? I had packed my donations with care, expecting to put them in the bin, thinking it was unlikely I'd get there before 4pm after a day at work. The volunteer looked irritable as she marched to the door and opened it just wide enough for her to reach through and take the bags. She didn't look me in the eye and made it clear that I was out of order by grabbing them from me roughly. I thanked her because... Well, force of habit. I am very disappointed in this interaction. I will not be dropping my donations here in the future.

Really gone down hill. Used to have a great selection of stuff and really friendly people…read more The store seems to empty now and seems to only be concentrating on womens fashion, the well curated library of books is gone and what they had left was terrible, arranged badly and just uninviting. Seems to be all different people now and the staff there were talking loudly about really inappropriate stuff made us very uncomfortable.

Range is large and varied, with a good selection of interesting furniture and shoes. The staff here are absolutely lovely, some of the nicest you'll meet. They're very helpful and friendly, and very understanding about disabilities and motion impairment. The store has EFTPOS and credit card facilities too, which is very useful. Overall, every time I've been here, I've bought something. This is a great store with great staff and a great selection.

For such important operations I need a vast selection of possibilities to hide my true identity and look fashionable. Needless to say, if I had to buy outfits and costumes new all the time I would need more than a spy's salary I can tell you! So my best option is the Salvo's on North East Road at Windsor Gardens. They have all that a spy needing a wardrobe change could ever need, and many options for fancy dress or just a vintage look if that is what floats your boat!

There are a number of Op shops on North East road, and The Red Cross Super Store is one of them…read more Usually I would try to point out some reason why I go there over other local options, but there really isn't any. It is just an OK store. Occasionally they stock some extra furniture that you wouldn't find elsewhere, but the last time I visited the range was mighty thin. I also didn't find anything new to add to my extensive spy costume collection. Such a shame, I was looking for something that would pass me off for a North Eastern Mongolian Yak Herdsman....I guess the search will have to continue.

Those shoes became too worn for me to wear again last month, and I will spent the rest of my God given days searching for another pair. I also found here a yellow jumper with Humphrey B Bear on it: it had all the creepiness and charm of the Television show. Sadly the jumper has gone missing; perhaps Humphrey reclaimed it without my knowing. Do not discount this as just another op shop, oh no. If you have a good eye, and luck on your side, you too may stumble upon magic boots, or similar.

Sally's Seconds is attached to the Salvation Army next door (get it... "Sally's"?) and is jam-packed with all manner of clothing, toys and bric a brac. Because it's kind of tucked away and unassuming looking, Sally's can often be overlooked by bargain hunters and thrift lovers, but don't make the same mistake! I've found some amazing (and super cheap) stuff in here. On my last visit I scored a brand new kookai top for $5, an amazing retro set of '70s tumblers for $8, a lovely tin with geometric designs for $2 and I was tempted to take home "The Bill" board game for $2 but somehow resisted. Being in Norwood, the stock is generally of high quality and good brands, and I find it's rotated quite quickly as well, so you can come in for a weekly browse and find something new. The lovely ladies behind the counter are always a pleasure too!

Oh dang, what a shame. This should be so much bigger than what it is…read more I was actually quite surprised with this store. Right in the middle of Norwood you would think that there would be a bunch of stock and some really good finds. I would say that Norwood is more of the upper-middle class area, so generally thrift stores in these areas have great gear to get your hands on. But, this one is just lacking in a lot of areas. This thrift store is small and separated into three rooms. I could see a large storage area at the back, maybe this is a staff area? Shame they do not use the space to expand the store. There was minimal clothing, books, crockery, etc... The staff also did not welcome me in the store like they do in the other Salvos stores. Such a let down and something that I like about their stores. Good customer services and generally helpful in most of them. Oh well... maybe I caught the staff on a bad day. But, I probably will not be back.
