I live on the Peninsula so I frequent the Belmont Salvation Army on El Camino, The Goodwill store on 25th in San Mateo, Savers in Downtown Redwood City, but my FAVORITE thrift store is also the closest to me. It's the Thrift Center in San Carlos on El Camino because of the sales (I even put a picture in the tribe photo album!)
What's your fave local thrift store?

Re: Best Thrift Stores in the Bay Area?
Sun, September 18, 2005 - 12:58 PMI need to find some new thrift stores. I have the thrift town in the Mission, but I'm not sure where else to go.... The Bins downtown is a bit of a hassle to get home from without a car... -

Tue, September 20, 2005 - 8:26 AMWhen I was living in San Carlos, it was definitely the Thrift Center. But now that I'm in San Jose, it's got to be the Savers on San Carlos St.; I also like Moon Zoom on San Carlos St. for retro-vintage stuff but they can be kind of pricey.

Wed, January 31, 2007 - 10:57 AMI have found great stuff at great prices at the one on Haight Street, a few blocks away from GG park.
There is another one in you 'hood on Valencia at 26th that I think sucks. I rarely found anything good and prices are too high for what they offer.

Wed, January 31, 2007 - 10:53 AMIf you go to the mission and 17th store, also visit the neighborhood thrift store 2 blocks away.
They are on Valencia and 17th, a few doors down from good vibrations.
