It is easy to get discouraged when it comes to buy items from thrift shops. This is majorly because there is almost never a guarantee that you will buy something good even if that has been the case for you previously. And no one wants to place stakes on luck of course. This reality is true in many parts of the US, not least Vermont.
To make things worse, the effort that goes into finding out the few reliable places is so much that most people simply do not have that time (understandably). What this article does then is share with you these shops now that I personally can afford the time since it is my job to research.
Beyond the names of the shops, I have also included herein their opening hours, contact information, and addresses so it should be easy for you moving forward.
