This thrift store has an okay selection of clothes and other things but mainly you should check out…read moretheir boutique. In the small selection of random coats, shoes, and handbags in the boutique there is some amazing finds! There is easily designer goods hidden in between the random goods. They have a wide variety of China and home decor that looks fresh out of a garage sale but some of it's cute. It can be s hit or miss depending on whose volunteering.

A very reasonable & inexpensive resale shop!…read more There is lots of glassware, GLASS! It is towards the back thru an open door. There is chairs, rocking and still. Washing machines, pillows, picture frames, children toys, shaving clippers still in the box. The clippers looked as if they were donated wholesale, it is a whole plastic bin of it. The clothes are not so hot! Mostly older clothes for elderly people and it is pretty packed together. Laminator machine, for $15, vintage projector $5, playstation controller&cable $3. The books are 4 for $1. A mannequin might greet you when you walk-in or the owners terrier. I didn't much of a greeting or talk from the owners themselves. The parking is on the side of the building. It is parallel, not very wise if you want to turn around and leave the way you came in. I saw a couple of people trying to do that. Lol! If you have trouble you can always drive behind the building to leave. Fishing gear does go fast here! A very affordable resale shop in Galveston always taking donations for good cause!

very unique selection of clothes and accessories for that occasion when you really want to stand…read moreapart from the crowd. The owner is the best! she will help you as much as you want, or leave you to browse if that's your preference. everything in this store is a one of a kind piece.

On Postoffice Street in the heart of Galveston is a rare gem of a retail establishment aptly named…read moreTHE EXPERIENCE. Owners, Cayenne and Concho, (AKA Kelli Holmes and Don Hendrickson), have created an eclectic mix of Art, Apparel, Accents, and Accessories, all made by Texas Artisans and presented in a cool vibe slightly reminiscent of a retailer in in the Village of NYC during the 60's and 70's. Cayenne and Concho have sold my art for the past 5 years here and at a former location in ETX. This place is very unusual and lots of fun to explore, especially if you are looking for an eclectic experience outside of the similarities most retailers offer in most stores today. Cayenne, a creative powerhouse, makes a lot of the offerings herself, including a line of clothing called Filly Pepper. The clothing line is recycled form vintage and current pieces on which she paints, tie dyes and sews into one of a kind wearable art. She also creates decorated hats and jewelry as well as very unique 3 dimensional assemblage pieces filled with humor and complete originality. If you are in Galveston, don't miss this rare establishment. I guarantee it will be an EXPERIENCE.
