I got a porcelain jug for $2, some jewellry for $4 for 4 pieces, and a ginger pot for $1. Plus books. Staff are completely lovely. This is a great shop that's a bit of a TARDIS--it's bigger on the inside. In fact, there is what one of the lovely ladies called "a treasure room" out the back, so don't think it's just the front part, there's this extra bit out the back with bric-a-brac, shoes, vintage clothes and other things. Then near the change rooms, there's another little hidden room, with cushions, sheets, blankets and baby things. Really great little store and this is another must visit again on my op shop list.

This is an op shop that's more than just an op shop…read more I'm incredibly impressed with the ethic of ADRA Op Shops. This one in particular. There is a wealth of goods to buy from here--electrical, furniture, books, toys, pet things, clothes, bric-a-brac--and they also sell non-alcoholic wines and their own honey. But what really impressed me was that they have food for free for those who are in need. By the front door is a large rack, and in that rack, on the day we visited, were bags and bags of fruits and vegetables--all free. We were told that sometimes there are loaves of bread or boxes of eggs or tins of food, all provided by ADRA's staff for people who really need it. I thought this was just terrific, and really showed how important it is for these organisations to exist, to help those people who are in need and may not know how to access supports or have trouble accessing supports. The range of goods on sale too, was great. I did very well here, grabbing a set of 8 etched glasses made in France, and a couple of paperbacks. My friend bought a few items as well. There's a cafe in the shop too, and a bathroom, which can be essential sometimes, on those long, happy op shop days. The shop is just behind the biggest Bunnings in the north, and the staff are friendly, pleasant and polite. Prices are good, and overall, the atmosphere was terrific. Will definitely visit again.

Run by the volunteers for the Lyell McEwin Hospital, this is a hidden gem of the northern suburbs…read more The store is huge and full to the brim with all manner of goods. From clothing to bric-a-brac to electronics to cameras to furniture, there's something here for everyone. They have periodic sales, for example, 50% off all furniture for a week, and the prices are incredibly good. The volunteers who manage the store are friendly and helpful, and more than willing to assist you with your needs. I did really well here, managing to grab a leather (!) recliner chair for $30, during the 50% off furniture week this week. With such a wide variety, even with the long distance drive it took for us to get here, I'll definitely be back. I highly recommend it as a good op shop stop if you're out that way.

Collection of useless brick a brack and used kitchen utensils: check. But there was not much happening there for the ladies! I found one small rack with a couple of frau frau blouses but the dress selection was nil. Where is the fun in op shopping if I can't get a look at a few hideous seventies frocks! And why was half of the store devoted to high wasted voluminous jeans? They did have a good book selection though. Half of the wall was devoted to fiction, and whoever is in charge of that area obviously reads because they had an interesting range of good quality fiction in there.

A pretty average op shop with almost no 'rummage till you find a gem' potential at all. The women's…read moreracks, as Liz points out, are surprisingly bare - and what is there is all of the lower end, lower quality variety. No crazy mu-mus, no unworn Cue pieces: a bunch of cheap brands in OK condition. Yes, it is cheap in cost as well, but that's not why I visit op shops. The men's selection fares better, though the home wares are dated and daggy. There *is* quite a selection of kid's toys which is great, but there are huge signs posted everywhere with "NO PLAYING WITH THE TOYS" splashed all over them. When my 2 year old niece went (quite naturally) immediately to this section and started touching things before we could pick her up again, a very blunt older lady appeared in .2 seconds and asked us to stop playing with the toys (which are positioned on the floor and within children's reach). She was a bit rude actually. I mean: have a heart ladies, they're *used* kids toys! Probably wouldn't go back.

When we walked in we were instantly confused: there was a table of ten ladies enjoying a sit down lunch in the middle of the store. We tried to back away but a lovely lady shooed us toward the clothing racks before sitting back down to eat. We browsed the shelves and edged around the diners and tried to ignore the awkwardness. The clothes were genuine op shop rather than vintage, mostly everyday brands but there were a couple of cute items and everything was in very good condition. In the room next door there was children's clothes and loads of the usual brick a brack. As we went to leave a small child blocked the front door, screaming 'No I don't want you to leave, I want you to play with me!' As her mother dragged her off and distracted her with barbie roller skates the girl muttered 'You're not allowed to leave Adelaide.' Probably wouldn't go out there again just for the clothes but we'd never go if we got invited to lunch.

Sumadi is a bizarre shop. It takes a while to work out what it does! It calls itself a "Vintage,…read moreRecycled and New Boutique", which translates to a second hand women's clothing store that also does some new clothing and accessories. They buy their clothing directly from people who bring in their "too good to throw away" pieces or vintage treasures, then mark it up to make a profit. As such, it's basically an expensive op-shop, though with way better quality clothing, and a range of very quirky styles. It's much bigger inside than you'd first expect, as it goes back into another space, so there's a huge range of clothing in here. It also doesn't appear to be arranged in any kind of order, so you really have to hunt through everything. It's quite a bit of fun! And you could find absolutely anything hiding in the depths.
