Thrift Shopping.
 

Hi Ladies. Hope I am not repeating my message - replies are rather tricky! I would love to join the Thrift Shop group, and please add me to the list. Husband and I arrive this Friday when we close on our new house in Buttonwood after living in VA for 40 years. I shall miss my VA thrifty friends, but look forward to making new friends who also enjoy the thrill of the hunt. As I do not drive a car very much (glaucoma and macular), a car pool would be icing on the thrifty cake. Hope to meet you'all in person at TOTV breakfast. Sandra

I'm All About Thrift Shiopping
 

We are coming to TV the week of July 18th. We close on the 23rd. I will be willing to thrift shop with the group. I stopped at Treasures and Bargains...loved it And the last time I was there I saw a consignment shop on 301 south of 466A. That's all I know so far.

Another home decor and furniture thrift shop to add to the list:

My Designer's Attic
801 N. Magnolia Avenue
Ocala (352) 369-9300

Hours:
9-5: M, Tues, Wed, Fri and Sat
9-4: Sunday and Thursday

There's also a small room featuring jewelry made by a local craftsperson.

Owner said this was the 8th week they've been open.

I'm visiting TV next month. What is the best flee market to visit within 50 miles?

I am moving to TV on Dec. 2nd- so excited. Renting in Duval until the end of January when our home in St. James will be ready. Everywhere we have lived there have been second hand gently used clothing stores- I was wondering if there are any near TV. Looking forward to meeting everyone.

Yes, there are a few of them around TV, but last weekend a few of us went to Another Look in downtown Leesburg and were very surprised at the excellent condition and great variety of items they had. I bought a wonderful purse that fits my needs exactly and it was only $12.00.... Can't beat that.

When you get here, give us a holler and we'll arrange a shopping trip with the ladies....

There are a lot of consignment shops to name a few: Centsible Furnishings on 441 in Bailee Plaza near Joeys: there are several church ones, ie. St Vincent De Paul on 301; Hospital thrift shop on Old Dixie at end of 466 near 441. There is one in Leesburg on 441 that really nice, can't think of the name of it at this time, but I think it's a great idea to start a blog of them all. We could all add any we know of that are not on the list.

I love thrift stores! Books, purses, things for the home, furniture, you name it. I definitely want in on this list.

Sign me up!!!! I am reading these posts with interest as I love bargain shopping. We close on our home in St. James on Monday and will come down the second week of July. I have LOTS of stuff to buy for our new home and intend to do a lot of bargain shopping from furniture to trinkets. Also need a washer and dryer.
Someone mentioned Second Hand Rose, I qualify for the name also because my name is Rose. Someone else mentioned 'Bargain Babes'.....I think that is short and cute.
Can't wait to meet you fun people.

I to enjoy bargain shopping. Nearlee New on 441 is also a great place for finding treasures, don't let the bus leave without me.

AT LAST!!! fellow kindred spirits who enjoy the thrill of the hunt while thrift store shopping. I have sorely missed those trips with gal pals in Virginia. Please include me in any thrift store shopping adventures. I am no longer able to drive a car, and would appreciate any car pooling offers. :gc:

Did this group get off the ground (or on the bus)??? I have been reading these posts with great interest. Have enjoyed doing this all my life!! Am closing on a house at the end of the month and will be a resident by Spring. This sounds like loads of fun and a great way to find bargains and friends at the same time!!!

How exciting to see so many others that have what my husband calls "an affliction" for thrift stores! In January Renningers has an amazing antique market - it's huge and people from all over the country unique stuff to sell. I think it's three days and around January the 18th. I hope I see you all there.

Where is Renningers???
