There's just something about an Op shop that brings out the treasure hunter in all of us and Melbourne is filled with these wonderful Aladdin's caves.
There are many reasons people love Op Shops.
Perhaps you like to Op Shop to save money or maybe to feel good about recycling and that you are doing your bit to assist the planet, maybe its a love of all things retro and fashions from a time long ago.
Or my personal favourite, perhaps its just the treasure hunter that dwells within many of us looking up and hoping to find some lost artefact that turns out to be worth a fortune on eBay or through a dealer.
Whatever your direction, Melbournians love our Op shopping.
Where do you go to find Melbourne's best op shops?
We would love to hear from you.

To get the ball rolling, here's a few of my special Op Shops I am particularly fond of:
If bigger is best you must visit the Savers Op Shops where their motto is "The recycle Superstore"
Click
here for a locations list of Savers stores.
Another chain store is Vinnies.
Read what Erica has to say about their
Ringwood store.
Click
here for a locations list of Vinnies stores.
The Lost and Found Markets promise, fashion, bric a brac, art,books and records plus more. They now have two locations 1-5 Perry Street Collingwood and 511 Lygon Street, Brunswick East. Click
here for website.
Some of the best op shops I find are in more affluent communities, seriously they dump brand names as quick as they name drop.
To get in with those that know, try "The Op-Shop" at 143 Canterbury Rd, Toorak.
If rummaging in piles of stuff is more your thing, try Alkira at 3 Thurston St, Box Hill.
For those that really love a bargain, try the 1$ opp shop in the Mountain Gate shops, Ferntree Gully, where everything is $1.
Rewind - is a blending of old and new treasures. Located at 151A Lygon St, Brunswick East.
For great designer labels - try
The {also} fabulous Op Shop - 328 smith St.
If you prefer to look by location (check the Savers or Vinnies link above) but also:
Here's some Op Shops for
Mount Eliza .

Mornington Peninsula .
The

As an alternative option, if you don't wish to drive yourself around and find these Op Shops, perhaps you may like to take a unique
