What are the most popular vintage shops in Alabama?
There’s no shortage of antique, old-school, and vintage shops in Alabama. That being said, some stick out as being a little above the rest in terms of quality, value, and customer appreciation. Some of the most popular vintage shops in Alabama include such gems as J’s Streets On The Canal, in Orange Beach, Angel’s Antiques and Flea Mall, in Opelika, Antique Attic (which is HUGE), in Dothan, and Amy’s Antiques and Flea Mall, in Montgomery. Of course, this list is not exhaustive; there’s no way we can list all the best vintage shops in the state in just a few sentences. However, the ones listed here ought to give you an excellent head start, if you’re planning an antiquing excursion soon.
What are the best thrift stores in Alabama?
Major chains aside, there’s lots to choose from when it comes to locally owned, locally operated thrift stores in Alabama. Some of our favorites include the Unclaimed Baggage Center, in Scottsboro, which is exactly that – unclaimed bagged purchased from airlines and resold to customers in this shop, and the Greater Huntsville Human Society Thrift Store, where profits go to the outstanding cause of helping homeless shelter pets find homes. The Foundry Thrift Store, in Fairfield, is beyond gigantic, offering over 30,000 square feet of thrifty goodness. We’re sure you’ll love it.

Where can I go bargain shopping in Alabama?
You can take your pick of literally hundreds of bargain shops around the state. Of course, your best bet is to start in any of the bigger cities, as they’ll certainly have more options than, say, a small, rural town. However, don’t rule those small, rural towns out – they can hide some legendary thrifting within their city limits. Some of the top-rated shops include places like Ollie’s Bargain Outlet, in Homewood, Bargain Hunt (see, it’s even in the name!), in Hoover, Opelika, and Huntsville, and Dirt Cheap, in Albertville. Of course, that’s not all of them by any means – but it’s a splendid start.
