The Salvation Army Thrift Store @ Shaughnessy St

This Salvation Army spot has a bit of a strange energy - it's clean and spacious but weirdly sterile, like a department store that got zapped into an alternate dimension. You'll find decent clothing deals (mostly women's wear) and a reliable selection of board games and household items. The prices are refreshingly reasonable compared to Value Village, and the organization is decent enough to find what you need. While not exactly a treasure hunter's paradise, it works for basics and seasonal items (they run good holiday sales). Just watch your belongings - I've heard some sketchy stories about lost items here. The huge parking lot is a plus if you're doing a big haul.
