In 1852 in England, William Booth and his wife Catherine were inspired by the gospel of Jesus…read moreChrist to leave the church and take their ministry to the streets. They abandoned the concept of the traditional church pulpit in favor of preaching directly to the people most in need. Despite the disapproval of the church, Booth took his ministry to the poor, homeless, hungry, and destitute. After training evangelists all over England, the couple returned to the west end of London in 1875 and formed their organization, the Christian Mission. In 1878 while reading the annual report for the Christian Mission he noticed the phrase "The Christian Mission is a volunteer army." William Booth crossed out volunteer army and replaced it with salvation army. From then on converts became soldiers of Christ or Salvationists. The groups message spread quickly and today they serve over 100 countries. The Salvation Army has churches throughout the world called Salvation Army corps but they are probably best known for their thrift stores. When items are purchased at the stores the money supports the Salvation Army's emergency relief efforts and programs. Unlike a lot of businesses the Salvation Army will hire ex felons. Some of the shops support the Adult Rehabilitation Centers which help people combat addiction. When you donate to or buy from the Salvation Army you are helping to support many worthwhile programs. I discovered this Salvation Army store while driving through Pembroke Pines. It used to be a Rooms to Go and the large size of the building caught my eye. As an avid thrifter I am always up to exploring a new store and this location was busy on a Saturday afternoon. Inside was one of the nicest Salvation Army stores I have ever been in South Florida although it still had that distinctive musty odor if you know what I mean. In the front of the store you will find large pieces of furniture like sofas, desks, and tables. Towards the back of the store are racks upon racks of clothes all organized by color and type. The amount of clothes was truly astounding. I feel like they could clothe the entire city of Pembroke Pines. Rounding out the inventory are accessories, home goods, toys, and books. If you were starting out in your first apartment you could get most of what you need here. Some of the things I picked up weren't in the best condition as they were broken or chipped. Take the time to really examine every item before you purchase. That said, if you ae a bargain hunter you will be in your element.

They keep the prices low and their inventory changed from week to week. I've dropped off bags a few times and I've found some nice crystal vases while looking around.

Then they have a service on Sunday where they have a meal together and invite the homeless to join them.

The Mustard Seed Thrift Store is a ministry outreach of the Davie United Methodist Church. You can find it in a small building to the left of the church. The Mustard Seed Thrift Shop is open every Saturday 9 AM to 1 PM. The thrift store is staffed with church volunteers and they take donations while the store is open. They accept and sell gently used clothing, children's toys and clothes, and small household items. Prices are very in expensive, clothing is only a dollar for an example and the church provides clothing vouchers for those in need if they contact the church office. I saw some interesting glass items, some of which may have been vintage. Patient church volunteers were giving a math lesson to some children buying toys. Although on the small side, this is a cute, welcoming store and the prices can't be beat. There are also several other thrift stores in the area so you can add the Mustard Seed to a thrifting circuit in Davie.

There is a scavenger hunt with a prize if you find all the items. You can even buy your beer as you browse. I am sure some people spend hours here. There is limited parking along the side of the building on the street. I am not a thrifter but it was fun to browse Oddballs.

Didn't even know this Goodwill was here. I came to pick up my kid at Off The Wall next door and I stopped here to see what books they might have. I was disappointed when I saw all their books fit on a 6-foot folding table. Usually at the thrift stores I've been to, they have several bookcases of books. It's all good because I found a Ruth Ware book that is on my TBR list. For only $1. I'm currently reading The It Girl by the same author. Hopefully they will build up their book selections. Other than that, they had an abundance of everything else. Kudos on such a clean and organized store all in all.

Beautiful section of glassware, and even mattresses, wheelchairs, rugs and bicycles. Dressing rooms available too. This week was the color red at a 50% off sale on selected items.

They have many bins full of all types of clothing ranging from $3 - $15 for most items. They also have several racks of hanging clothing with price tags ranging from $10 - $40+. They also have accessories like hats, shoes, belts, and more. I was happy to see they have a vintage comic book selection as well. I liked the vintage decor and openness of this place. Open, airy and laid back. There is also plenty of free parking. They offer dressing room areas, bathrooms and a member discount for being a repeat customer. You can purchase vintage and retro clothing in bulk or by the piece. You'll love this place if you grew up shopping Salvation Army and Goodwill. I bought some comic books (4) as a gift for my nephew and a sesshomaru vintage tie dye tee for myself. I paid a total of $25. Not bad. My husband pointed out the large strobe lights around the ceiling area along with a big disco ball in the center of the ceiling stating "I think this place turns into a club at night." Intrigued, I asked the guy working there and he confirmed that starting in January, it will be a hang out spot with music & food vendors. ​ I enjoyed my visit and glad I came here today. Check them out if you're in the south Florida area.

If had enough space, I would have scooped up those sweet ceramic vegetable trinket boxes. Everything was actively arranged and clearly priced. Take your time and look closely. There are a lot of cool things to see and prices can be negotiated. The Flip Side has another store in Ft. Lauderdale on Cypress Creek Road in Ft. Lauderdale.
