Bargain Box Thrift Shop — Local services in Miami

This is an awesome thrift store find in Miami. First off it is entirely run by The Woman’s Cancer Association of the University of Miami, a volunteer group started in the 1950's. Funds raised from this store go to support cancer research, patient care, and education at Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center and UM Miller School of Medicine. To date they have raised $12,000,000. Since I personally benefitted from this research I whole heartedly thank everyone for volunteering. Membership to the WCA is open to anyone who would like to join.

Parking is pay by app in front of the store. It is almost impossible to find free parking in Miami but it only cost me 88 cents to park here. You will know you are at the right place by the colorful flower mural on the outside of the building created by artist Corey O’Brien. The store recently underwent a renovation with new paint, lighting, and a dressing room. I was surprised by how large the store was. There is a main room you enter with a large selection of clothes and accessories, a smaller room with small appliances and household goods, and a back room with art, furniture, and antiques.

I ended up leaving the store with a Showtime Rotisserie. I have been using one for the past twenty years to make the holiday turkey. Set it and forget it, LOL. The one I have still works but is a little worse for wear. This is a newer model and they were able to knock $13 off the price for me. I saw someone else get $10 taken off a clock from the 1930's. I like how they will work with you on the price. During my visit I saw a gorgeous wardrobe for only $200. In addition to shopping here they will also take your donations. This is such an fantastic organization and one I am only too...

The outside isn't much. If you look through the windows, the dummies are dressed with old lady clothing making it not an interesting store to go in to. The outside also looks fairly small as well. But the inside is very spacious and cute in a way. There is more clothes than anything else. Though with so many clothes it is kinda hard to weave through the clothing racks. Since its a charity thrift shop, everything is super cheap. Highest priced thing I bought so far is a dress which was 8 bucks and even then the lady was kind enough to drop it to 6 bucks. I love it overall. Its convenient and fairly close to where I live, there's fashionable clothing if you look right. And if there's part of a clothing you don't like, upcycle it! Make something old into something hip and fashionable :) One downside is that it closes early, I would have to go on a Saturday to visit the place since on weekdays I always get home after...

Very well run business. The customer service is great and the people who work at this shop are truly wonderful. These are by far some of the nicest people I've ever met and the deals are great. There's a little bit of everything in this store go in often and look so you don't miss out. You can furnish your whole house and wardrobe here for just a fraction of the cost of most stores. They also have a lot of vintage and antique goods for people who look for those things specifically. Give this place a shot and everything does for towards the breast cancer association so it's a great...
