St. Vincent de Paul is practically legendary in Los Angeles for being one of--if not THE--biggest thrift shop in the city. If you're a thrift shop junkie, this place would be your playground (although I would highly suggest extreme caution when picking through the as-is pile). So what do they have? EVERYTHING. From clothes to tableware to furniture to...cars? (Yes). Furniture here takes up a good part of the floor, and I cannot stress this enough: Dirt. Cheap. A friend of mine picked up two chairs that looked like something straight from Paul McCobb's studio...for $35 a pop.

We have two St Vincent's ("Vinnie's) way up here in rural N.Cal. Although it's not THE Vinnie's of LA fame it's still pretty amazing what you can find there. Why it seems to bring a better quality of thrift i'll never know, but I'm still glad for it. (Oh!, and they have amazing pick up service too!) staciaD in N.Cal on Sep 10, 2007
