Antique Chic and Thrift
- 3 Salisbury Street
- Contact: [email protected]
- Open hours: Tue-Fri 11am-3:45pm and Sat 11am-3pm
This multipurpose store is full of clothes, kitchen goods, hand-picked gifts and homewares, with things guaranteed to delight and sometimes to intrigue.
Jessica has a Pay It Forward board at her store, for folks who may need a little help purchasing clothes or shoes.
Each card has a prepaid amount on it. If you need, for example, work shoes, and you find a $15.00 pair but you don’t have an extra $15.00 to spend, you can pull a $15.00 card from the board and turn it in when you go to cash out.
She's often finding and showcasing new things, so even if you've stopped by before, come by again!

The Gifford Medical Center Auxiliary was begun in 1906 as the Randolph Sanatorium Ladies Aid Society. They have been running the thrift shop since 1956. The money raised by the thrift shop supports Gifford Hospital, including the Robin’s Nest day care building. The Gifford Auxiliary also awards scholarships each year to area students entering healthcare related fields.
Not only does Gifford have clothes for adults and kids and a wide assortment of kitchen and crafting items, it has a loading dock where you can leave your gently used items that can then be made available for other members of the community. There's a big sign that shows what they do and do not take and Andy is always happy to give you more information.
Gifford Thrift has a changing room and a seasonal collection of items so it's a perfect stop for your Halloween costumes or holiday decorations.

Rumor Has It is the only thrift store in town which has a lot of larger furniture. They do estate sales and cleanouts, and are a good place to go for tools, miscellaneous hardware, jewelry, and quirky antiques.
It's a large space and a good place to root around for various treasures, especially if you're someone into old media (records and DVDs galore) or you just feel like reminiscing over toys from your childhood.
