6 Best Thrift Shops in South Carolina!
Thrift stores are not a new concept (literally). But in recent years, second-hand shops have resurged in popularity. Despite selling used items, savvy bargain shoppers swear by thrift stores to find quality dishes, books, gently used clothing (sometimes new with tags!), and other items that can be repurposed to look brand new. The Palmetto State is no stranger when it comes to bargain hunting. Here are the best thrift stores in South Carolina that helps you stretch your dollar further.
