AUGUST 2026 BSRI Thrift Stores NEWS:

 At BSRI Thrift Stores as the final weeks of summer unfold, there's something special about stepping into a BSRI Thrift Store. Leave the August heat behind as you browse cool aisles filled with the excitement of discovery. The familiar sound of shopping carts rolling by, friendly conversations between neighbors, and shelves overflowing with unexpected treasures create an experience that's as enjoyable as it is rewarding.

One of the best things about thrift shopping is that no two visits are ever the same. A beautiful piece of furniture, a favorite author you've been searching for, stylish clothing, unique home décor, vintage collectibles, artwork, kitchen treasures, or something you never even knew you wanted—it could be waiting just around the next corner. Every donation that arrives brings fresh possibilities, making each trip a new adventure and every aisle a treasure hunt.

August is also a wonderful time to shop for back-to-school essentials, refresh your wardrobe before the seasons begin to change, or add those finishing touches to your home. Our Calabash and Shallotte stores continue to receive thousands of quality items every week, giving you plenty of reasons to stop in often because tomorrow's treasures may be completely different from today's.

Be sure to take advantage of our August Monthly Sales, with outstanding savings on a variety of seasonal merchandise at both locations. Look down at the bottom of this page to see which categories are 50% OFF this month.  

And don't miss one of our biggest events of the month! On Monday, August 17, we're celebrating National Thrift Store Day with a 20% OFF Storewide Sale, including furniture. It's the perfect opportunity to discover incredible bargains while supporting a mission that makes a real difference throughout Brunswick County.

Whether you're searching for something specific or simply looking to enjoy the thrill of the hunt, we invite you to visit BSRI Thrift Stores this August.

Great Finds. Great Savings. A Great Cause.

Thanks for your support!
