As many who know me on here, know I love taking pics of vintage fashions. This is one of my…read morefavorite thrift stores in Indy for that. So many vintage pieces in this thrift boutique. They have an area just for vintage ! A bonus is that next door is Half Price Books with a fashions book area. This is at the intersection of Ditch Rd. and extremely busy 86th St. Don't get it confused with the one near Castleton Mall. Personally I feel the 86th. street one has more stocked albeit narrower aisles. Would post more pics for those that might be interested further.

There was a good variety to choose from. There's also some higher-end items like a Lilly Pulitzer…read morehoodie hoodie for $55. I ended up buying a cute dress from Loft for just $7.99.

Today was my very first visit to Snipes. It is quite a large store with beautifully lined walls…read moreshowcasing all the shoes on display. I was greeted just after I entered, it was a very friendly greeting and I had a bit of conversation with the gentleman, I'm assuming the store manager. This is the first store in Indiana and they opened in November. Prices seemed comparable to other sporting goods stores with an emphasis on the "fashion" aspect of athletic clothing. I went in solely with the intention of checking it out and from what I saw I'd definitely go back.

I found a lot of what I needed (cleaners, light bulbs, candles, air fresheners and towels) for the job. As with other closeout stores, their stock is limited to what they get access to, which makes it a new experience each trip. Some of their selections included food, books, beauty, household and electronics. Sign up for the shoppers rewards for additional savings. The register aisle featured a Mars candy closeout, so I grabbed some gum and a M&Ms sharing size for the plane trip home.

I've been coming to Architectural Antiques for many years to find parts for my vintage projects…read more You can find just about anything here, including the kitchen sink. The shop is a hidden gem on an old farm on the border of Indianapolis and Zionsville on 96th Street. There are three barns filled with amazing light fixtures, antique furnitures and any architectural feature that you can imagine. They have been salvaging these details from homes for decades. You can find parts (door knobs, hinges, crystals, stairs, flooring, glass shades and much much more). Outside, wroth iron fencing and porcelain tubs. Sometimes you have to look through the dust to find the treasures. Parts are fairly well organized - and the staff can help you find something that you are looking for. The buildings are old barns and not easily accessible for strollers or wheelchairs. In general, you probably don't want to bring small children. There is plenty of parking.

Ollie's has been reading my mind as of late. I go in thinking about how I don't need to buy…read moreanything, but then there it is...just thing I've been "needing." Some of my recent fun finds include crochet kits, a planner/organizer that helps with decluttering, and some of my favorite and somewhat expensive chocolates. If you pair the already deeply discounted offerings with saving earned through the rewards program (Ollie's Army), you cannot go wrong! We returned within a few days to gather grass seed, bird seeds and an expandable hose. We always receive great service whether we're strolling in 5 minutes before closing (it happened recently) or in the middle of the day.

Great place to find some heavily discounted treasures…read more They always have a wide array of seasonal gifts and decor especially for Halloween and Xmas. Trees, masks, figures, wreaths , garland , lights, candy, gift sets and more. Also great for certain discounted grocery items ie. (red lobster biscuits, cereal, cookies, $1 spices, chips and drinks) They have a pretty decently priced furniture area as well. They also have great deals on Toiletries, dishwasher pods and laundry detergents. Never very busy and the staff is always friendly too. Check them out for an easy shopping experience, and although they aren't super well rounded as a store the deals and neat finds are worth stopping in.

It was about an hour before closing and one person was gathering carts outside. There was one cashier up front when we walked in. I initially looked around a bit for the item. The store has many many empty shelves and pegs. I gave up and asked the cashier about the ear buds. I was told they were probably on one of the 18 to 20 skidds of merchandise that were still in the back room. This person went on to share that the people working in the back were lazy and didn't like doing stock. Also went on to say that they have had a bunch of people recently quit, that the store manager didn't want to hire anyone over the age of 25 and they had a shoe string staff. Sometimes it's funny how much people share with me. I ended up ordering the ear buds in line, and saving 10$. So win for me.
