Scrap Thrift

Jason Crawford

They always really cool stuff and great prices. I never leave empty handed

Huge thrift store with a variety of items. The books section alone is worth the visit, and they are organized by genre so it’s easy to browse through. They have a clean bathroom and weren’t too busy when I went. Definitely my favorite thrift store in Durham.

Prices seem to be going up as is the trend with many thrifts, and the sale colour wheel no longer applies to clothes (which you'd think they'd want to move faster) and some jewelry, but they're still miles better than Goodwill and bargains can be had if you look - and there's plenty of square feet to search! Whether you're looking for a vegan cookbook, some DVDs of your favourite show that's off Netflix again, or a nice blouse for a job interview, chances are you'll find it here. Where Scrap Thrift really shines is in the staff, always keeping shelves stocked and as tidy as possible, answering questions, and keeping checkout lines moving as well as they can. The checkout staff are a particular benefit to Scrap, with warm welcomes and a keen memory for regulars. I always appreciate a heads up to check out freshly restocked books when I walk in (though my remaining bookshelf space disagrees)! It can't be easy keeping a space this size running smoothly and I hope management appreciates the positive impact of the employees who represent the business in-person to the customers.

Most items here are incredibly overpriced, especially the books. The checkout line moved very slowly and I had to ask for my receipt because I wasn’t offered it. There is a large selection, but I’ll probably just stick to goodwill for more affordable things.
