New2U Thrift Shop

Located on the grounds of SCWO (Singapore Council of Women’s Organisations), New2U is a volunteer-​run thrift shop that sells pre-​loved clothing, books and a small range of other items. All the stock is donated, and the funds are channelled to SCWO’s activities, which include a legal clinic and shelter for women in need in Singapore.
The prices are ridiculously low, and, while it requires a bit of time to weave through the mess, you can leave with some terrific finds. I once found a full silk tank with a beautiful print for only SGD 2. They also sell used rollerblades, and I was able to get a bundle for SGD 5 a pair to donate during one of my volunteer trips.
The best part, of course, is that you’re contributing to a great cause while shopping.
However, they only open for limited hours each day, and they are closed on weekends. This makes it inaccessible for most, but it’s well worth the trip if you’re willing to sacrifice your lunch hour to do a little digging.
