Op Spot is a map for op shops. It shows you every charity store, op shop and second-hand spot near you — which ones are open right now, and what fellow shoppers have just spotted in store — so a day of thrifting is a treasure hunt, not a guessing game.
It exists because the best finds are invisible, and the charities behind these shops are under-discovered too. Op Spot puts them on the map: good for the wallet, good for local charities, and good for keeping good stuff out of landfill.
