I like to go Thursdays in particular because the good stuff is not yet rummaged through by the weekend shoppers. I only had $20 with me but still wanted to check in. The pink capelet was so cute and feminine for $7 but cheapy acrylic so no. This $17 mid calf length wool jacket was amazing!! Bell sleeves, pockets and a hood!



I would have got it but I found $5 mens loafers (below) and if you do the math, I didn’t have enough for both. I stick by my choice, the loafers are perfect! I also got this very cool oversized oatmeal sweatervest (below as well) for $7. Better pics of these items will follow as they are living in my closet. ![]()
P.S. The expression on my face in these pictures I quite find hilarious, so somber, lol. I should be smiling wide after those amazing finds!

Hi Adrienne,
In Vancouver there is a bunch along West Fourth, North Van Salvation Army is good, Wildlife Thrift Store and any other Salvation Army I like. Also Gastown has a few good consignment and vintage stores. On Granville downtown Used and True Value Vintage. Hope this helps.
