Thrift Stores
Visit the original Thrift Store and the new "Store Next Door"for some great bargains!
Located at 424 Fernhill Road, right across the street from the Ag Hall.
Saturdays: 10:00am to 1:00pm, Donations and Shopping (no donations after 12:45pm)
Wednesdays: 9:00am to 11:00am (Donations Only)
* Please read the instructions below before donating!
The Thrift Stores receive donations of useable goods from the community and resells them at affordable prices! You might be surprised at the quantity, quality and and diversity of goods: bedding, appliances, shoes, electronics, canning jars, kitchen ware, books, puzzles, games and more.
The bright new "Store Next Door"has provided an excellent space for clothing, as well as lamps, jewellery, vintage items and antiques and all things children. We believe parents deserve a break, and with some exceptions, youth clothing is priced at $1 per item.
How To Donate
Please note: all donations must be delivered to the new store.
We happily accept goods in CLEAN and USABLE condition. In fact we love those things! Please understand if we can’t accept your donations if they are broken, chipped, ripped or dirty, or if we think we can’t sell it.
We are happy to accept your seasonal items, but we’d really appreciate if you donated them shortly before the season (example – bring Christmas items in October, Easter items in January). Otherwise we need to store them and we are running out of space – even with the new location!
