If you've emptied your wardrobe in a Marie Kondo declutter demolition, catch the cheap-priced classic clothing in Adelaide's op shops.

Enjoy guilt-free shopping as your bargain buys support our local charities. Start your search with these top op shops in Adelaide:

Clayton Wesley Uniting Church's Spire Community run programs for our new refugees. They grow flowers, fruit and veg in the community gardens, using the produce to feed those experiencing grief and loneliness.

All funds from the Goodies Op Shop support these programs. They sell quality contemporary, vintage and retro fashion for women, men and children. There are also paintings, books, crockery, children's toys and quirky sculptures.

Goodies Op Shop is open weekdays 10am - 4pm and Sat 10am - 1pm. Visit Clayton Wesley Uniting Church for more info.

Omne trium perfectum is Latin for "the rule of three". At Vinnies, only good things come in threes, with this trifecta Vinnies Ops Shop in the St Vincents Building, on St Vincent St and in Gulf St Vincent.

The Salvation Army is the go-to charity for Adelaide's homeless. Since the Aussie founding of the Salvos in our Botanic Park in 1880, they've offered food, shelter and support for thousands of Aussies every year. Support them with a bargain from the Port Adelaide shop.

The friendly volunteers will give you a makeover from the racks of classy clothing. Pick up eye-catching homeware and bric-a-brac, books, toys and music, then take a nap on one of the new mattresses for sale.

The shop is open Mon to Fri 9.30am - 5.30pm and Sat 9am - 5pm. Visit the Salvos on Facebook for more info.



For over a decade, the funds from Second Chances have given former inmates a second chance as they're released from prison. Second Chances helps break the cycle of crime by supporting them, their families and children as they rejoin our local community.

Pick up quality furniture, clothing, kitchen items, fabrics and jams. Sample sweet treats and fresh coffee during the regular cake sales. Check out the warehouse shop in Richmond for larger furniture, white goods and electrical appliances.

Second Chances is open weekdays 9.30am - 4.30pm and Sat 10am - 3pm. Visit Second Chances Op Shop for more info.
