My top 3 thrift stores in the Indianapolis area

I get questions almost daily about what my favorite discount consignment thrift stores are in the Indianapolis area. I have people reach out that are coming here from out of town, so they're like, what are your top three? I have people looking for specific items or like a specific category of an item. They'll ask me where they should look to find that. Today I want to share my top three favorite thrift stores in the Indianapolis area. It was really hard to narrow down this list because there are so many great thrift stores in Central Indiana. But here are my top three. First is Mission 27 Resale. There are two locations of Mission 27. I personally have only been to the one on Shelby Street and I think the reason I like that one so much is because I found an Alo sweatshirt there. I couldn't believe it when I was looking on the rack. I just moved through so quick and I saw the logo and I was like, wow. The prices were great. The store was big. There's also a coffee shop connected to the store. So that's great. It was clean and well organized and it was one of those places that as soon as I left, I was like, okay, I cannot wait to come back here. Second is Beyond the Thrift. This one's located in Greenwood, Indiana. It's a little bit smaller of a store so it doesn't take as long to browse through all of the items. But I found some really great brands there too. I got a Patagonia vest for like $10. And I got my husband an Under Armour shirt. They had dishes and home decor, lots of clothes for extremely reasonable prices. And I got to meet the owners of that store and they were super sweet people. So that's always an added bonus. Third is Thrifty Threads. Thrifty Threads was big and there were a lot of different items. So if you're going to go there, make sure you give yourself enough time. But they also had some of my favorite brands there. I got a cardigan from Madewell and it's one of my favorite cardigans that I own. They had a lot of other name brand items, like gently used in great condition at really good price points. Thrifty Threads also has a lot of furniture and home goods. They had a ton of dishes and glassware, serving dishes, plates, photo frames, artwork, tables and chairs, dressers and nightstands. I just love when these stores that have so many different items have them organized well. So it makes shopping there so much easier for us as the consumer. I'm telling you, narrowing this list down to my top three was really hard because like I said, there are so many great ones. And if I didn't mention your favorite thrift store, leave it for me in the comments. So I can go check it out if I haven't already. And if you're not in the Indianapolis area, I have a ton of videos on my page about the different stores I've visited, what I find there, what kind of items you can expect. So make sure you check those out. If you haven't been, also, I have an interactive map on my website, wellandworthit.com, that will show you where all of my favorite thrift stores are located in proximity to your current location. So you can very easily see what's around you. And let me know if you have any that I should add. And if you think there's a thrift store where you live that's worth me checking out. I'd love to hear about that too. Shopping small, shopping sustainably, giving items a second life and saving money while you're at it is well and worth it.
