Hainesville Thift Store

Decent selection of collectible items. Art and some vinyl. Clothes all seemed from the 80s, a lot new with tags. Generally overpriced, like they already priced according to the internet… I prefer a true thrift store that makes treasure hunting fun. I also like to be greeted, so when two people were working and no one said hello it bothers me enough to not return.

At first, I thought, typical thift store– thousands of coffee mugs and baskets. But wait!
An ART section? This place actually had these beautiful photos of europe you see at all the arty suburban shows for a fraction of price. Bright greece days, soothing Italian sunsets. You name it. They were marked $ 50 and $ 70 dollars but the sign said 2/​$ 18. GO get them right NOW.
The pictures being there set my mind a wandering– did the dude who did them DIE? Did he bring no name coffee to his suburban art show instead of Starbucks and get banned, never to sell to yuppies too lazy to travel and take their OWN pictures?
It was enough to make me explore more and then I discoverd the … SHOT GLASS section! Someone was thoughtful enough to think of the hard drinker’s needs. I felt… warmed by their kindness.
Theres clothes and shoes. You know how I feel about those, a long section of nice jewelry and a unusual selection of cartoon character glasses from the 70 and 80s. One’s like Pepples’boyfriend Freddy or the «Georgy and the Pirates».
In all, a interesting shop if you’re in the hood.
