I'm new to thrifting. I don't know where the price point on used items should be. My inexperienced…read moreopinion is that the clothes and book prices are great. The store is huge. It was formally CVS located in the Lucky supermarket plaza. Rows and rows of clothes! There is a reasonable selection of plus sized clothing as well. I had no expectations. I was just browsing and ended up picking up a few items. I was hoping for a better selection of accessories. That inventory was lacking.

It's nice to have a Savers in town. While I personally have never found anything I liked there,…read moreDevon found some nice leather boots, so I know good things trickle in. The prices are aligned with goodwill, and the workers there are helpful, like their spirit hasn't been broken, which is nice. Their donation system is real hassle free--you literally just pull up and see the big green bins, and toss your stuff in there. Find an employee near the green bins and they'll give you a 20% off coupon. That's it! No selling or anything, just dump your stuff and get a coupon.

They have a huge selection of clothes, with a smaller selection of furniture and other household wares. We also stopped by to donate some things.

The space is well laid out with various sections, making it easier to browse. Really cute vintage shop with nice owners and unique selection of items. They even had old school board games!

I love to go thrifting and while many items are marked up, I take my time and find some treasures…read more Salvation Army had 50% off green tags, unfortunately almost all the items I bought were blue tags. It gets hot and there are no fitting rooms, so you have to wear something light to both keep cool and be able to try on clothes. There's also a no return policy which is kinda upsetting since there's no fitting rooms to try on the clothes. The space in between the racks is good, so two people can pass by without bumping into each other.

I've come here before and I didn't sift through the racks to really find treasures, but I did find some frank sinatra records on a previous trip that were priced at $1.50. This past weekend I took my time and really lucked up. Everything was under $60, and I live for a half off sale. After getting some of these items cleaned they will be gifts for my mom. Gotta love treasure hunting

I was walking around Alameda and was waiting for my takeout lunch order to be ready at a nearby…read more restaurant. I fell into this intriguing Antique store on the main st. of Park Ave. It has 2 levels of pretty much anything ranging from Furniture, clothes, knick knacks and various things which are anything that constitutes as " antiques". I had bought a Hockey Jersey which has the infamous Friday the 13th villain but definitely in mint condition never worn. Sports memorabilia and Throwback jerseys and hats. The cashier was super friendly and helpful. It has something for everyone and also has reasonable prices.

Every first Sunday you can find some hidden gems at Alameda Flea. From DVD, VHS tapes, rustic…read morepaintings, clothing, rugs to beer steins - there is no shortage of items. However, the parking situation can be quite tedious when arriving after 10am. The entrance fee varies based on the time you come in, with the most expensive being when they open at 6am ($20). My family and I got there around 11am and it was a $10 entrance fee. They do allow re-entries so long as you get a handstamp before exiting. Today was my first time visiting and I was taken aback by how pricey a lot of items were - especially the clothing. Many were priced higher than new items. The food vendors present were underwhelming. We had Donna's Tamales and it was quite bland and overpriced. They charged me $18 for 2 corn chili tamales. My husband and I had hoped to find some items for our new spot, but left empty handed. Not sure I will be back for how marked up the items were.

Even knowing this it felt like I should have worn a thicker jacket. The kids and wife were freezing and we had to get them used sweaters and a blanket from vendors on site. It's a curated selection of antiques, vintage good, and clothes so it will be more expensive than traditional flea markets. They have foods on site on the right side with normal items like coffee and breakfast burritos all the way to ube waffles and fried chicken. There are some treasures here if you are willing to go digging: -Near the front was a lady that had preserved bugs that were mounted in nice displays or frozen forever in blocks of acrylic. These are locally made and some of the species I haven't seen before preserved and available for purchase. -Seaglass and antique glass merchants. Saw two of these guys and liked the odd rainbow patina for glass that has spent decades in ocean water. -Japanese wood medicine boxes, these were decorated with old stickers and looked so good for storing items. They were 40-70 each and were priced well below market value.
