Ha! Excellent choice on that St Vincent de Paul also. It’s easily one of the best in the area. That aisle you found the watermelon trivets at…you can just sense that’s there’s good stuff buried in there but it’s so overwhelming! Next time check out Flamingo Haven and Riverside antique mall. Also, if you’ve never been to Traders World near Mason I highly suggest in a few weeks when it starts to warm up more. It’s a gold mine of antiques and vintage stuff at the outdoor booths.

    This is the kind of thing that gets me down about the surge in popularity of thrifting, people especially larger organizations think they have the right to charge whatever because they see the virality when they’re probably not even cleaning/mending let alone adding retail value to garments. It gives all of us that are subsistence collectors/sellers who survive off this and actually care (by upping the *value* not just the price) a bad name 🥲

But they have the best vintage selection. St Vinny’s is the best set of thrift stores in Cincinnati. You went to the main location and the outlets. Both fun times and different experiences. Next time you come, go to the St Vinny’s on the west side of those are the 2 best locations with the best selection. St Vincent does amazing work around the city as well. They help to furnish homes who can’t afford to. They have a great mattress program to help people get beds. They have a food bank downtown. Would love to run into you in the area.

      @@KathleenIllustrated- many use “It’s Not A Perfume” as a base cos it makes your fragrance last longer. I want to say it’s mostly ambroxan which people buy specifically for doing this. Oh & at TJ Maxx & Marshall’s you can often find JHAG frag for a steal! Sadly my skin eats frag & even tho I love their scents they don’t last on me whatever way I try😕. Jet 😘🧡

    If you're around Cincinnati again, the Norwood Salvation Army shop is an interesting one. I haven't been in a long time so I can't say what their stuff is like, but the shop itself is definitely Capital-V-Vintage. They're in the kind of place you definitely won't be able to find unless someone shows you where it is, and the clothes are even in an entirely different entrance not connected to the rest of the place at all.
