This is the most amazing store. It is located in a non descript plaza off of University and Sample…read moreRd. I attended the church in this plaza once but somehow missed this fantastic find. I was on my way to the new Nordic Bake Shop, another must visit when I spotted their sign that said vintage, one of my loves. Walking into the store is like stepping into a museum except you can buy anything. Amazing treasures await around every corner. They carry furniture, art, sculpture, clothes, and accessories. The jewelry made me salivate. After talking with the owner Karen for awhile I was persuaded to try some silver rings on and of course I ended up with two of them. I have been wearing the heart shaped one every day since my visit. I asked Karen what the oldest piece in the store was and she was a wooden cabinet from France dated 1730 that comes with a ghost! The owner Karen is a sweetheart. I had the best chat with her. She will buy your old jewelry and gold. The jewelry collection here has so many interesting pieces, I really had to hold myself back. When you are looking for that special something that no one else has, pay them a visit.

This is a true antique shop with lots of vintage jewelry, furs, clothes, and accessories, plus…read moredecor items. You would not expect it to be here. The seedy plaza is almost entirely empty and looks quite run down with lots of open places for rent. And it's no where near other similar stores or shops, either. Inside is like coming into a hidden treasure trove. Lots and lots of very interesting items to look at of all sorts. Of course, with today's current super high gold prices, the high end jewelry is (high) priced accordingly. There's a lot of Asian pieces of jade, snuff bottles, and the like. Many display cases are dazzlingly full of shiny baubles and beads. Even the costume jewelry is ogle worthy. In the back of the store are the minks -- stoles, jackets, and full coats plus a separate rack of other types of fur outerwear. You may recognize your mom's or grandmother's or great aunt's stuff here. Then there are the fancy dresses -- with beads or spangles or rhinestones, etc. And there's accessories as well... I'm sure a store like this would be packed with customers on Las Olas in Fort Lauderdale or say Worth Avenue in Palm Beach. Of course, there, the rent would be astronomically higher. This is the kind of place great for browsing and if your pocketbook will allow, a great place to treat yourself to a special birthday or anniversary gift.

They were in the process of rearranging items and shelves, so it was pretty hard to navigate. We did try to see what we could while there. In the back of the store are racks of clothing. You had to squeeze between the racks to see anything. And on the racks the clothing is jammed together. They may have some bargains here. They have a bit of everything -- especially bric a brac -- and anything else you can think of. But it is challenging. Prices seemed reasonable. So come with patience and if you're looking for something specific, ask the staff so they can put you in the right direction.

I always love exploring a thrift store so I was delighted to discover Vets Thrift. It is next to…read morethe Presidente supermarket in the Towne Shoppes of Margate along 441 before Sample Rd if you are heading north. According to their website and name they donate proceeds to veterans. How much or what charities it does not specify. They accept your donations or you can shop their store. The inside is a bit cramped but I am convinced you can find gems if you really look. I quickly spotted some vintage Crestone Buttertree stoneware plates from Japan that have become very popular on Ebay and with collectors. They also had a few pieces of furniture, books, collectibles, household goods, toys, and a lot of clothing towards the back of the store. Prices on the few items I checked seemed very reasonable. There is a Family Thrift, Women in Distress, and Goodwill nearby so with this store you can have a nice little thrift outing. Thrifting helps the planet by reducing and reusing while also saving you money. In in this case it is helping veterans too.

I like how things are well organized and not all over the place. There's a huge selection for clothes, men's and women's. They had so much. Come prepared to take your time to go thru everything. This isn't the in and out thing unless you came in for something specific. Prices were okay. They also had new items, still in packages. I only interacted with 1 employee and she was very sweet.

I've been to this store twice. The first time I only bought a pair of shoes, and the second time I…read morepurchased quite a few things and most were affordable. I think this is a cute little thrift store HOWEVER.... There was an item that I was extremely interested in and I asked for a better price. The owner told me she could sale the item for $10 more, and since she could, why would she sale it to me for cheaper. Instead of trying to retain a good customer she doubled down on not being willing to negotiate. For this reason alone I'll never go back.

Odds and Ends is a good name for this store because there was a lot of random stuff.

Most things were disorganized like the mountain of linens in the back of the store. I don't know why they don't fold some of it and try to make it look presentable. Aisles are very tight and several times I had to wait for people to move because there was no way around them. Nothing was marked with prices but I didn't see anything even worth asking about. Anything that looked remotely interesting had a chip or crack in it. After a few minutes of browsing I knew this wasn't the place for me.

After waiting about 20 minutes in the 7-items-or-less checkout line, cashier Noemi refused the sale claiming there was "no price" despite the visible handwritten $5 marking. What was more frustrating was that she took the item from me, brought it to the back to the manager, then returned without the item and both refused the sale. The item was already damaged and labeled AS IS, so the refusal made little sense. Very poor communication and customer service experience, especially after the long wait. Disappointing experience over a $5 item that was clearly marked. Not coming back again.

I read reviews of the business but the rudeness on top makes it almost unbearable. Don't try to use a buggy, there is not enough room. The clothing is packed in racks so you really struggle to see anything. I would not come back because I never need anything that bad to go through that again.
