6 Best Thrift Stores in Madison, WI
1. Rethreads
6664 Odana Rd, Madison, WI 53719
This place is really fun! You can find unique and vintage items, as well as your high-end pieces too. Think a classier Plato’s Closet…same store vibes and prices, but you’ll see less Aeropostale and more designer highlights!

this bag almost made it home with me- so summer vintage Parisian!

2. Habitat for Humanity Restore
4207 Monona Dr, Madison, WI 53716
Ahh, home lovers rejoice. If you’ve never heard of ReStores before, they are the mecca for bargain hunters and DIYers.
If you’re renting or not totally into home projects, then these stores may not be for you, but for those that are, they are GOLD. Pure gold, baby.

dream chairs…just weren’t enough! a beautiful marble table!
I love the thrill of the find, plus the prices are insane.
beautiful vintage headboard so many hutches!
Everything from furniture to sinks, leftover paint,
would make a beautiful Parisian fireplace!
3. Goodwill
This will be the most typical thrift store out of the bunch. No designer spotlight and the clothes are more “basic”, but on the flip side, the prices are way cheaper too! If you’re not familiar with Goodwill it’s comparable to a Salvation Army or St. Vincent De Paul.

4. Habitat for Humanity Restore
5906 Odana Rd, Madison, WI, 53719
This ReStore is smaller and has less selection, but still definitely worth checking out. You never know what home/project gems you could find!
5. Pink Poodle
6676 Odana Rd #1012, Madison, WI 53719

I don’t say the words need & have to a lot (as in you have to go here or need to do this), but with this place, I’ll boldly say it: You have to go! It’s an amazing place for fashionistas to find vintage, designer, or just well-curated pieces.
The atmosphere is fun, the selection is insane, and there are just so many goodies!! Prices are midrange to high (it’s an upscale boutique after all), but they do have sale racks that are worth checking out. Plus, it’s right next to Rethreads (#1)!
6. St. Vincent De Paul
6301 Odana Rd, Madison, WI 53719
This place is similar to a Goodwill but I’ve found some of my best gems at this particular location. Have you seen my thrift haul video? You can see some of them there!

I took a picture of the prices so you can get an idea, but I think they’re kinda all over the place. Meaning you could find something for $2 or $40! But stylish people must drop their stuff off here because this place is good!
Happy thrifting to you!!
