Times are tough, once again. But don’t we all deserve a little retail therapy now and then? Sustainable fashion is on the rise and cheap price tags never really go out of style, so here are some of Orlando’s best thrift shops around, in no particular order.
There’s a little vintage funk, a little retro flair and a ton of dollars saved at the register.
Avalon Exchange
745 N. Orange Ave., Winter Park
Sell your threads to an audience that appreciates not only your eccentric style but also your thoughtful sustainability. They’ll give you cash on-site, but chances are you won’t make it out the door with it once you peek around at their incredible selection, so opt for the store credit.

3106 Corrine Drive, Orlando
Audobon’s Owl’s Attic vintage boutique was opened by Brittany Sulser. According to their site, “You’ll see everything from perfect, deadstock pieces to thrashed and beat to hell vintage in our collection.” They have pieces from the 1950s through ’90s, but “our hippie hearts are stuck in the 60’s/70’s.” Credit:Photo via The Owl’s Attic/FacebookOut of the Closet
