Every few weeks or so, I get a friendly email from a reader asking where I go thrifting. And I love answering them. It feels great to introduce new thrifters to my favorite stores, and even better to share regular stops in Dallas to thrifting enthusiasts.
This week, as part of my Thrifting 101 series, I decided to compile all of my most-visited stores into one helpful post. These are stores where the cashiers know my name (or, at least my red hair) - places I stop into again and again, where I find both vintage and new merchandise for myself and my family. I should note that there are many more thrift stores in Dallas that could be added to this list, but I'm only including stores I have been to myself.
Garland (about ten minutes from Dallas):
Garland Road Thrift: 10030 Garland Road Garland 75040 - Highly recommended among Dallas thrifters. Prices are slightly higher than Goodwill's, but you'll find new merchandise from J Crew and Loft among vintage pieces. Don't miss the evening wear section.
Texas Thrift: 1406 W Walnut Street Garland 75040 - The largest in the state!
Thrift City: 1725 S. 1st Street Garland 75040
Salvation Army 1905 S Garland Ave Garland, TX 75040
Dallas:
Salvation Army: 5554 Harry Hines Blvd. Dallas 75235 - Don't miss the special room in the back. I've bought most of my Ferragamos here!
Dolly Python: 1916 North Haskell Dallas 75204 - A fantastic indoor flea market/antique mall/thrift store
Value World: 2223 S. Buckner Blvd. Dallas - Somewhat scary neighborhood, great vintage. No dressing rooms.

Feel like taking a road trip? The town of Sherman is quaint, filled with antique malls, and has some excellent thrifting to boot!
Sherman:
Goodwill Texoma Parkway location: 1836 Texoma Parkway Sherman - 75090 One of the largest Goodwill locations I've ever visited!
