Four Infinite Thrift Stores in Minnesota

Four of the Best Thrift Store's in the Twin Cities

Patrick W. Marsh
1. Unique Thrift Store
2201 37th Ave NE, Minneapolis, MN

Unique Thrift Store in St. Anthony, MN is a treasure trove for all your thrifty needs. Here you will find sprawling racks of clothes, shoes, books, almost everything imaginable at a thrift store. The overall clothing selection there is astounding, literally limitless and massive. They also have this severely random electronic section where everything is heaped into piles of old radios, televisions, and everything else in-between.

2. Goodwill
1627 County Road B W, Roseville, MN

Not only do they offer the traditional rack system of an endless clothes inventory like Unique Thrift Store, but they also have the glamorous bins. Any thrifty shopper worth their salt in thrift-ing should be aware of bins. Bins simply put, have a bunch of stuff inside of them. This uncelebrated method of stocking drops the price drastically and typically brand name items sneak through into the maelstrom. They also have an elaborate drop-off system for donations in the back of the store.

3. Savers
4849 Central Ave NE # 3, Columbia Heights, MN

Savers is an excellent choice for all your thrift-ing needs. Clothes are in abundance at Savers, it might actually be there greatest attribute. Their clothes are all well-organized, clean, and presentable. You can find every brand name there, along with extinct old brands which are even more fantastic. Overall if you're looking for clothes specifically, Savers is the place to go well thrift-ing on a dreary day.

4. Arc's Value Village Thrift Store and Donation Center
1650 White Bear Ave N, Saint Paul, MN

Arc's Value Village Thrift Store and Donation Center is a small, independent, and excellent thrift store for all your varied needs. They have clothes, gadgets, toys, and furniture. The store is separated the moment you enter, into two opposite quadrants. One being the more expensive section that involves towering glass cases, the other being non-expensive items that usually fall in racks and shelves.

For all four stores: No trade-ins, drop-offs are welcome, and all four places are of course ultra-cheap.
