I am somewhat particular about the way I (don't) like to shop. Grocery shopping is left to someone…read moreelse as often as possible, I find very little pleasure in going from store to store just browsing to see if I can find something to buy, and I typically wrinkle my nose when I end up paying retail for an item second-guessing whether it could be found at a discount somewhere else. More often than not, I shop when I need something. And admittedly, I frequently shop online for convenience and cost-comparison purposes. Unless I am looking for something special... I relish in finding that special little something for friends and family, that item they didn't even know existed that will bring a smile or a warm fuzzy feeling or a hearty laugh. Artifactory, now sharing a roof with Sewciety (perfect match), is such a shop. Only a handful of shops *spark joy* the moment I think of them and this one tops my list! Artifactory has a truly unique selection of very reasonably priced items I am unlikely to find anywhere else and the owners make you feel extra-special because they remember the little details, your likes and dislikes. They have a beautifully curated collection--a blend of local and non-local items--old and new, practical and quirky, unique and creative. My spirits are lifted when I walk through the door. I feel a bit like a I did as a child looking through a favorite relative's hope chest or exploring all of the treasures in my grandmother's home imagining what my home would look like when I got big. Nostalgia and possibilities comingle. And every time my gaze rests on an item I acquired at Artifactory - that vintage map framed on the wall, the 1937 yearbook from the school down the street from my home, my "protest socks" my husband bought me for certain civic matters, or the locally made jellies and sauces that taste so amazing, I am grateful for this little treasure in Downtown Norman. Go visit them and see what treasure you might find! And now in their new location,

There are gifts for every age that will delight, because these fabulous finds cannot be located anywhere else close to Norman. One of the very best things about Artifactory is the owner, Amy. She greets you with a warm welcome, like family, and does her best to find exactly what you're looking for. Great place to shop in Norman!

Love, love this thrift shop, my fave of all in Norman and OKC areas. This shop is organized and WAY…read morebetter quality and selection than any other thrift shop in town, just as nice as the consignment shops like Plato's, but with even more to offer than only teen apparel. The prices are great and they have lots of sales all week. Their staff is super nice and are ready to help any time you have a question, they helped me pick some clothes for my niece. Shopping retail is a last resort for me, so this is my go-to spot. Bonus points to them when I found out they work with churches and agencies in town to gift clothing for free to those in need. Now I can send all the things I don't use any more to them and know it's for a good cause.

Pretty neat little place to go get your fill on junkie and old things…read more This is right off the highway, and near 2 other "junk stores" one of which is owned by the same people who own this one. The one next store is more expensive, but has nicer items. So what I find cool about this place, is its decor and items for the yard, porch, and garden. Metal arches, gazebos, metal animals, clay pots, macrame hanging baskets, garden gates, benches. All sorts of things! Some can be a little over priced, but never fear my fellow "junkies" you can haggle! There are so many hidden gems in this place. Walk in, find Native American decor, nascar, furniture, kids toys, books, old radios, washers, records, blankets, beauty supplies (it may be expired, but hey, DISCOUNT!), tvs, beds, couches, bikes. If it's random, you may find it here. It's really hard to tell you what they have, because it really changes. The store is big enough, be aware, the older women who works there, is the owner. She has eagle eyes and will follow you around. (Okay, that might be why I gave her four instead of five). They accept cash and credit cards. No checks- and cards have a minimum of 10$ charge. Overall, I like this place a lot!! It's cool to walk in and see what you'll find. It's pretty crowded, so if your in a wheelchair, or having to bring a kid in thats in a stroller, might have trouble getting around. Goods are hit and miss- good location. Overall great prices. Four stars!

All their items come from storage building auctions so like the other reviewer said it's hit or miss but when it's a hit it's a good one. Yes the older lady owns the place but I've never had her follow me around. Maybe that's because she considers me a regular! Today's great find was a multimeter for $45 that retails on Amazon for $120. And some Christmas lights that they plugged in at the corner to show me that they worked-before I even asked. What do they have? Books, arts and crafts, kitchen, knick knacks, holiday, tools, furniture, appliances, collectibles, garden decor, office, and tons of miscellaneous.
