There aren't any "good thrifts" anymore. They're all overpriced with terrible products deranged management and miserable employees.

What are you looking for?

Nothing specific honestly. I just like thrifting.

Oh, hard to point you in the right direction then.

Where do I find old typewriters?

Elmer's Barn, Chicken Barn, those are the places I'd look first. If you're looking for typewriter keys PM me... unless you're the wiseguy downvoting me.

I’ve found great stuff at that Goodwill and the Augusta one. Waterville seems like they have better shoes, Augusta has better books.

I haven't checked out Augusta yet! I'll do that! Thanks!

Somerset Auction Company in Fairfield has a lot of interesting stuff to bid on.

I've never been there, but I'll have to check it out! Thanks!

Nah just love typewriters, thanks.

What town are you in? I just saw one in a travel case the other day in some shop.

Not a fan of Goodwills in general anymore. The Salvation Army in Newport is decent sore. A good ole Mom & Pop with good prices. Few and far between

Down East, but I'm all over for work.

Little bit of a hike but The Willows Flea Market in Mechanic Falls. Honestly haven't been there personally but have only heard good things and the owners are great people.

I don't even know where that is! But I'll check into it. Thank you!

The Habitat for Humanity Restore has some interesting household stuff, no clothing or linens though. I think it was there that I saw a typewriter.

Farmington has 2 consignment stores and a general thrift store. I've scored some decent stuff there.

Was just at Chicken barn. all of three typewriters, all ridiculously high price.

Not really 'thrift' but consignment/antique shops...but maybe you'll find something interesting:

Jellison Trader on 201 Augusta across from the Big Apple.

Elmer's on 17 just before Peasley's.

Stonybrook on 3 in Augusta

Ron Reeds just off 3 in China

Toy Store on the corner of 3 and 32 in China

Fairfield antique mall on 201

Liberty Tool Company on 173 in Liberty

Yeah hence my first comment about thrifts or used goods. These people are delusional. Although it has to be somewhat because the quality of modern goods is so terrible that there will be no reselling market in 10 years. At a business like that, the sellers don't realize getting into it that they're supporting their own business AND an amazingly outsized portion of the renter's business. No one with a booth at an antique mall is making money except the renter.

Thank you! I'll have to take a ride up there to check them out!

Thank you so much! 😁😁😁

It's not a thrift store, but Heirloom Vintage & Antiques on Temple Street has a great selection of vintage clothes at very reasonable prices.

Thanks! I'll check it out!

Why aren't you a fan of Goodwill now? Price increases?

Never heard of it! I'll look into it! Thank you!

It's across the parking lot from the Concourse/Goodwill etc. Down from Cancun, used to be Sign of the Sun. Household items are upstairs, building items on main floor. They have an elevator.

I know that what used to be Sign of the Sun is now a store called Old Soul Collective. Is it in the same building as that?

Hmmm now I'm confused! Pretty sure it's the corner store, I thought Sign of the Sun was there but could be wrong. Not familiar with Old Soul Collective. In that area at any rate!

Too much just crap on the shelves. More often than not the records are just thrown on shelves. Bad corporate Vibe Plus more
