I don't think I've ever left here empty handed! I've picked up two leather jackets and a couple of funky pieces of jewelry here. Probably not worth a special trip out of your way but definitely a fun place to pop in if you're in the area. Go for lunch at the Port Bistro or Pasta Guy while you're at it!

Last summer my friend and I set out to hit every Frenchys between halifax and Weymouth in the same day. (This summer we're making a weekend out of it to reach more) Anyways, she convinced me to stop in here. She, like me, is a huge thrifter and said this place was amazing. I hadn't been in years. I was doubtful, but if I trust anyones thrift opinion, it's hers. We stopped in and I was so happy we did! This is up there with favourite Frenchys! Their dress selection is large and varied with sizes and brands. I'm a big dress shopper, so a good dress selection is important to me. Like every other Guy's Frenchys they dump new items every hour. This place is really clean and there isn't a ton of bins compared to other locations, but enough to keep you busy for a while! You can easily loose an afternoon searching through these bins. This Frenchys also has a lot of knick knacks and misc items to rummage through, which I love!

This Frenchys has to be one of my favorite locations in the province. Two to three times a year I…read moretake a day trip to hit up the three valley Frenchys. Coldbrook, Berwick, and Wilmot. They are all located on or just off Highway 1 which makes for an easy drive. For some reason the valley Frenchys have the absolute best selection compared to the Halifax stores. I've found my best pieces here. Land's End, Banana Republic, Ann Taylor, BCBG Max Azaria, and FCUK are just some of the brands I've found and bought. All clothing is priced less than $10. There is a handy price list in each change room and by the cash. There is a definite art to rummaging at Frenchys. Every one has their own style. Some dig to the bottom, some neatly pile rejects, others create towers that eventually sway and collapse. I prefer the one corner method. I chose and corner and work outward to ensure maximum coverage, like one would wash a floor. I can do a bin in five minutes or less. By the time I've looked through each bin and am ready to try on my finds the staff are diligently restocking on the hour. You really could spend all day in the store. In addition to clothing I've found quite a number of good books here. A very nice pictorial encyclopedia of cats in fact. I usually have the most success with the sweaters, tops, dresses, skirts, and blouses. I find the pants and shoes to be quite lacking at all locations. Most times the shoes are simply too beat up and the pants too out of style. The best parts about Frenchys is the selection, the brands, and the constant replenishment. Whenever I take friends along we are both always able to find something, even if our styles are completely different.

It makes a big difference when you're looking through the racks to have a friendly face telling you about the deals rather than feeling like you're in the way, which I've experienced at other thrift stores in the past. There are two floors to this shop - today the second floor was wedding themed, which was amazing. There were also formal dresses, jewellery, handbags and suits on display upstairs - anything you might need if you were going to or planning a wedding. It was fun poking through the wedding dresses and seeing right in front of you how much styles have changed throughout the decades! Downstairs there is a "front" that has racks of clothing and some jewellery and in the back, you'll find some homewares and yet even more clothing. Shoes, winter coats, and kids clothes are back there. The prices at Hand in Hand are amazing!! You won't find any almost-full-price goods here. If the item wasn't priced it was $4, and Friday's are student discount days! (Good to know!) We found an amazing hot pink pineapple print dress...definitely not for me, but one of our friends was so excited to be getting it. This is the kind of thrift store I enjoy being in - it really feels like you could find rare treasures here if you just had enough time.
