Best op shop around. Friendly volunteers, has everything, well organised and easy to find what you need. Fairly affordable prices, love that they test and tag electronics, great furniture and kitchen ware.
Great, big, colourful shop which is fun to browse. Clearly marked sections with plenty of options to browse. More expensive items are in their own section. Other items are reasonably priced. Big book, cd and DVD section as well as clothes and accessories, homewares.
New location for the big and browsable Bro of St Laurence op shop in Brunswick, into the old Mirabella Lights/Travel building on Lygon St. Friendly greeting and easy to browse racks with a room of more designerish clothes and cheap racks of clean undamaged clothes. Found a great book as well. Dress your kid for very cheap. Fun visit in a few light-filled rooms. Jewellery is still well above the usual standard and many choices at this store.
Staff are friendly, it's an op-shop dedicated to helping those who can't afford more expensive stuff. Open to taking in good stuff, reasonable prices. HUGE space, for clothes, furniture, bedding, books, all household things. They were really welcoming and chatty and open.
A fantastic op shop with a massive range of clothes, books, furniture, kitchenware, antiques, beds and more. The staff are friendly and are happy to help you out. Whether its looking for something or helping you carry a larger item. Expert tip: There are toilets at the front of the shop that few know about. The door is covered with posters so it looks like a wall. But take a closer look and you'll find toilets! Now you can double your op shopping time without having to leave in search of toilets. The kitchenware is sorted by colour which is pretty helpful. Sometimes this section can be chaotic in other op shops. This grouping makes your search more bearable. Feeling tired from shopping? Head out the back of the shop and turn left for a great cafe, Lucy Locket, that makes awesome coffee. Or, theres Gelobar, Woodstock Pizza, New York Minute Burgers and lots more out on Lygon St.
