One of my favorite things to do in Central Florida is to go to thrift and antique stores. I stopped…read morein at Sherman's on a whim on a recent trip through Winter Haven and I was wowed. Across two floors and over 1,000 square feet of space they have the most amazing antiques and treasures. Sherman's Antiques has been in business for over 25 years selling their own items and leasing space to other vendors. They also do estate sales and offer a doll hospital, restoring treasured dolls from the past. I couldn't believe they actually have a basement which is something you hardly ever see in Florida where the water table is so close to the surface. I had so much fun exploring their furniture, housewares, glassware, clothes, art, jewelry, holiday decorations, collectibles, and so much more. I especially loved the vintage casserole dishes. Prices ranged from a few dollars to the many thousands. How negotiable they are depends on it it belongs to them or a vendor. On the way out I spoke to the friendly owners about their marvelous collection. It is a curated history of the 20th century. If you love antiques the way I do, add this to your Winter Haven shopping list.

Let me be the first to warn you not to enter this place unless you have time for a proper GANDER, ok? Ok. The store is filled to the brim with goodies and most things are very reasonably priced in my opinion. Lots of small knick knacks but larger items and furniture as well. The two ladies at the front were cute as could be. I'll definitely be back!

I love thrift shops and I'm always up for thrift shopping. So, after driving past this place for…read morealmost two years without knowing it IS a thrift shop, when we finally realized that it is, we we were excited to stop in. At first glance, parking looks completely stupid. It looks as though there are only two parking spots, frequently taken by the employees. This isn't actually the case, though. But we didn't figure that out until months later. Had we figured it out sooner, we'd have been there more often. Now that we know, we will do just that. There's actually a shared lot to the south of the building; it's easy to miss so keep your eyes open! This is no ordinary thrift shop. They've got the coolest, most iconic goodies from eras past. Being an 80s kid, this little shop is packed full of delights I recognize from those days. Toys, old cameras, collectibles, footwear, memorabilia.... they've even managed to stuff an old VW Beetle inside. Rad. Oh and the vintage clothing! Good gravy, it's everywhere! It's perfect for us, as cosplayers. We've found so many pieces for our cosplays here that we couldn't find anywhere else at way better prices than ordering online. Love this shop! Admittedly, my slight claustrophobia creeps up when inside but that's because this place is SO stuffed full of spectacular vintage goodness. Even if you're not in the market for buying anytime, stop in and take a look around.

It's been a minute since I've been inside an actual indoor mall so this was definitely a fun…read moreexperience, but everything has changed, all of the stores that I'm used to shopping at are no longer available so I did leave empty-handed. It's so weird but I guess I have become a custom to online shopping. The mile was extremely clean and not crowded at all on a Saturday evening. I did stop by the Cinnabon place and get I guess something that's kinda new which is the inside of the Cinnabon. It was delicious. I added extra icing. I also sat at the massage chairs and got a massage. I think I still like JCPenney's, but I didn't go inside and of course they have a Macy's . All in all this is a pretty good mall.

No idea when they changed the name to Brandon Exchange. It's been a year I have been here so maybe…read morein that time span. Someone shed some light for me on that name change. Came here bc it was a record low temp outside and we needed to walk our furbaby inside. This is a good place for it and it's dog friendly inside and there were a few dogs walking with their family. Everyone needs to stay warm ya know. Now coming in here, we park at Dillards, and I get the Wonder Years Vibes. Remember that show from back in the day with Fred Savage & Danica McKeller - Kevin and Winnie Cooper I believe. It's the faded periwinkle green carpeting that makes it so back in the day. It has that feel to it, but I know I've seen even more throw back malls. Happy that we can walk inside here with no issues. I don't come here often at all, and I just walk around. They have stores like Apple, Lush, Dicks, Macy's, Blind Tiger Coffee. I really can't remember many, but they had a cool area by Apple with photo OPPs. Kids were having fun playing on the swings. It wasn't a playground just currently a beach looking type set up that was super cute, & Cherry blossom trees on the other side of it That definitely stood out to me. Definitely not a fave mall for me, but nice that it's not too far and it's inside when the weather is extreme.

Stopped by this outside mall as the alternative stop instead of crowded Bonnet Springs Night Event…read more Initially this reminded me of Shops at Wiregrass in Wesley Chapel. I think it's a little bit smaller but similar layout and stores. What I didn't like the most is how dark it was. I don't think that's so safe. It was early enough to where there was at least two more hours of shopping before stores closed yet really dark. It's been about 10 years since I've been here, and it seems to look about the same as that time. They did have a Christmas tree in the center. That at least brightened the place up a bit. The stores off hand that I recall where Bath and Body, Kirkland's, a boutique with country ware, a Thai restaurant, a Vietnamese restaurant, BD's Mongolian BBQ which I was surprised to see, & a Grillsmith. They also had a movie theater and a book store. Those were some of the stores off hand. There were also a handful of empty spaces. The parking was free along the inside of the mall street parking where we parked. The Best Part Was Seeing the Bloom Mural!

Nice outside shopping area right in Lakeland…read more Our whole Fam has a great time here and they have many food options. We did notice on our last trip that there were a decent amount of store fronts now closed, hopefully other will come in soon and this isn't going to be another half full shopping center. We would really miss going here. They have a movie theatre, plenty of food choices from semi affordable to less affordable and a decent amount of stores to peruse through. Most of the stores are your basic chains, but at least you can have a nice walk outside with nice scenery while you walk. They had a huge Christmas tree, great for a photo op. The only thing this place is lacking is for a more trendy or niche/boutique stores that would sell non dept. Store/Mall items. You know something different!!! If you want to have a nice walk about while you shop/eat then check this place out, it's good for a day out with Fam for sure!!!

There are pictures of how the Publix looked in 1940 on the wall opposite the checkout. Proceeds from the sale of items benefits the parish ministries which give food to the hungry, shelter to the homeless, and clothing and financial assistance to those in need. All items are donated to the church and then sold in the store. i was really surprised how large this store is. There were multiple rooms of home goods, books, sports equipment, art, small electronics, holiday decorations, and clothing. They even had wedding dresses. I especially loved the vintage room as soon as you enter where I found the Pyrex casserole dishes I adore. Also in the front of the store is a religious section with new items. During my visit all Christmas items were 75 percent off. Follow them on Facebook for information on new items and current sales.

You're liable to pick up completely unnecessary items that you weren't even thinking about, like this picnic basket. Ask me the last time I've been on a picnic LOL.
