I seem to always go on the same day, heard Saturday and Sunday are the best day. Because more people go on Friday and Saturday. I got my friend to sign up! Honestly it has change my closet I love to go thrift shopping but I come home to discover a broken stitch or a stain. I love that before making it to the shwapclub they have been inspected one by one. You still need to check your white because of fondation stains. I have been trying to have a more minimalist wardrobe so I pack a few bag of clothing items and give one to my sister and keep the other one. I love that any items is a credit, purse, jeans, bikini... not every item you will bring will get accepted they have to be in great condition, in saison and have style. They have 6 change room for you to try on before you use your credits. They accept any brand other then ones that have been closed. To make sure things are still up to date. You can pay for a membership or every time you go. The owner is so lovely, she was there to help tonight.

Shwap Club may seem like your average, young, hip vintage store, but don't be fooled. This place is…read morenothing short of revolutionary. How it works: Go through your closet, looking for gently worn clothes, shoes, purses and/or jackets. Like that gorgeous dress you bought on sale at Zara but don't really fit into anymore. Or that neon shirt your favorite aunt got you for Christmas but you never wore. As the saying goes, one woman's trash is another woman's treasure! Bring your goodies to Shwap Club, where a lovely girl will sort through your bag and give you one credit for every item that makes the cut. That means clothes in good condition without holes, stains, etc. Pay $12 per visit or $85 for an unlimited annual membership. Then, start treasure hunting! You can leave with as many items as your # of credits, no matter the type of clothing. The store is neat and cozy, with a mid-century sitting area in the front and curated clothes separated according to category and color. The experience is relaxing yet thrilling, as I never know what I will find. Updating my closet without spending a dime is awesome, but most importantly I'm glad that Shwap Club has made me more mindful of my spending habits, helping me contribute less and less to mass consumerism. It's made me that much more appreciative of our planet.

This is a second-hand/ thrift shop in Verdun that benefits battered and homeless women…read morespecifically. Whenever I have a bunch of clothes, shoes and household goods to donate, I usually bring them here. Run by volunteers, the folks are really kind and helpful. As a consumer, I've found some pretty sweet deals here too. I found a 1960s leather-cased travelling bar, complete with jiggers, martini shaker, strainers and measuring cups. Out of curiosity , I checked on eBay to see the going price, and it went for $160. Here I picked it up for $2.50. Another time I found an unused waffle maker still in its box and got it for five dollars. It's worth it to come here now and again to check their stuff because like I always say with thrift shopping, someone else's junk could be another person's treasure and you just never know what you can find. Plus you're supporting a great cause by shopping here.

Will definitely be back to check it out with a friend

Most of their stock is vintage pieces so if that is your style you will be in heaven here. Personally that doesn't align with my taste but what I loved was the jewelry selection. If you go in the back they have lots of pretty jewelry from Montreal designers and the prices are very reasonable. I would definitely come back here for that.

Alas! A Flea market free of dust! While we have our favorite Antique store ways from Old Montréal,…read moreEcoDépôt was our answer (about a 30 minute drive from Old Montréal) for items being right up our alley with a bunch of good prices. Plus I also get a kick out of finding as many cool items in Montréal (which somehow seem to look and sound classier than the same shiit I can get back home). Covering lots of square footage, EcoDépôt is what it sounds like located in an industrial area off the highway. The first two things I noticed walking in was their Piano and Bill Withers playing. And by the way, the rest of their 60's R&B playlist was cool to hear in these parts. If it's chairs you're looking for- they have variety. Leather chairs? Several. Lamps? Many- plus so much other things. Actually one of the things hubs noticed is how clean items are and don't have years of dust on them! I'm still adding finishing touches to my vanity room and was hoping I'd find a specific stud chair here- but left empty-handed. But I did find a royal blue, metal utility box for CAN$39-which I'll repurpose for some of my items. Service was super nice from Ilene(?). I made the purchase alright, but I also wanted to close on a sweet deal- and EcoDepot didn't bulge. So just remember...there's no haggling here. Although I didn't find that perfect 'je ne sais quoi' piece that I had to have- I came out with something else.

This is a fun place to spend an afternoon looking around at vintage furniture and household goods…read more I don't understand people who go to IKEA all the time when you can just as easily hit the thrift and vintage shops and score stuff which is A) Much cheaper B) Better made, and not the usual Made in China crap C) Unique and one-of-a-kind. Chances are none of your friends will find the same Rococo-style lamp base that you might find here. I collect vintage enameled cast-iron cookware like Copco, Le Creuset, Desco and I found a few pieces here in excellent condition and at a much cheaper price than I've seen elsewhere for the same thing. I think if you have a certain eye for design and aesthetics, you can easily find some stuff here, from kitchen table sets, to old toasters from the 1940's that with a little elbow-grease and watching how-to videos on Youtube, you can easily bring back to their former glory.

Small high end consignment store tucked away on a side street in Westmount. Well curated selection…read moreof designer shoes, clothes and accessories. Everything in very good to excellent condition. Prices are reasonable given the quality of the items, roughly 50% of what they would be brand new, +/- about 10%. No crazy bargains to be had, but if you're looking for a specific item and don't want to pay retail, this can be a good option. My daughter has wanted a Canada Goose coat for a while, but they are around $1000 new. I found one here in excellent condition for $400 and was very happy with the purchase, especially as they had a sale on that day for an extra 10% off. Watch their Facebook page and Instagram for sales and for new items in stock. The only negative I had about the store was that there was a very faint smell of cigarettes but it was not in the clothes so not really a big deal. The lady in the store was friendly and helpful and there was no pressure to buy anything. With the fashion industry having such an environmental impact, I've been trying to buy fewer things by buying quality clothes that will last a longer time and buying consignment whenever I can. Will definitely stop in here whenever I am on the hunt for a new addition to the wardrobe.

I left with a few treasures that I've worn many times already, an orangey-red Marc Jacobs blouse, a 60s-ish pair of blue floral ankle length pants and a gorgeous pleated D&G skirt. They also have beautiful jewellery and accessories. I'm glad in a way that I don't live nearby because I'd be spending too much here! Highly recommended.

Also, if you're looking for something in particular, do not be afraid to give them a ring or inquire via email - Ms. Elaine and the staff will write it down and have a look for you, whether from their inventory or from the new incoming items. A work event was coming up, so i was curious to see if they had a specific style of dress/size - if they don't have it, the store will keep looking. They also are willing to give you great recommendations! :D One thing I appreciate is that ERA really has a discerning eye - the qualities and the conditions of the pieces are immaculate - no holes, rips, stains, or wear are found here!

It was hard to find anything under $20 (even used T-shirts!!!) so that was a little disappointing. The selection of denim jackets was exceptionally impressive though.

However, if you're looking to find unique items at any cost, this would be the place for you!

It really felt like they had everything and that was just for 2-3 aisles out of an entire store full of great items. I would definitely go back to look at the clothing and other items at another point in time but for the books alone, I was very impressed by the value.

I was in town for 48 hours and stumbled upon Eva D while showing my husband around the city. The store was well organized, fitting rooms were spacious. There was also a comfortable couch ( a must for any good store). The staff were friendly and very helpful. We found a great little 1970s dress that was perfect for the weather that weekend; and my upcoming trip to France. I highly recommend!
