I want to first note that Yelp has marked the location for this store completely inaccurate! (It's…read moreactually between Kyrkogatan & Drottningatan), but as to the store I found exactly what I was looking for (a military pack with backpack straps), but it was a little on the pricey side (about $60 USA).

This is the most well stocked true thrift store I've been to in Gothenburg. A lot of other places…read moreare focused on apparel and footwear only but this is like the ones you'd find in North America, donated items and not just apparel. They have some selection of kitchenware, framed art, appliances and a ton of clothing. Each of the floor didn't seem big but they have 3 or 4 floors, we had been walking all day already so I only made it to the 2nd floor and decided today is not the day to thrift hunt. Though I didn't purchase anything from here, I saw some great items that piqued my interest. Just didn't want to carry all over town with our visit. Definitely check them out if you're in the area and are looking for a true thrift shop, though the pricing on some items can be pricy. Employees seemed nice. Just another note, I noticed that the thrift stores in Sweden smelled the same as the ones in the US. Thought that was interesting that the 2nd hand smell is the same. :)

(This is run for the benefit of the Salvation Army's social programme)…read more Myrorna sell only second hand stuff. You can find clothes, books, porcelain, utensils and furnitures etc. This store is large (3 storeys) and very well organized. Very well. I like that they arrange the glass and porcelain items on the ground floor colorwise. Books are around 20 SEK (paper back) and up. Otherwise i sometimes find it a bit pricy actually. (A second hand shirt from Melka at 110 SEK???) Nowadays it is not easy to bargain, they know how to price valuable and sought for items. Which is a pity. If you even get the chance to find them in the store.
