Thrifting tips for Manitou Springs
A few things worth knowing before you work through Manitou Springs's thrift stores:
- Ask about hold policies at Goodwill. Eyeing furniture you can't take today? Many shops will hold an item for 24 hours. Ask before someone else buys it.
- Ask when new stock hits the floor at Goodwill. Shops restock on rhythms — truck days, volunteer shifts. One question at the counter tells you when to come back.
- Weekday mornings beat Saturday crowds. Serious pickers go early on weekdays. Weekends are for browsers; the stock is the same but the competition isn't.
- Look behind the front row. The good stuff migrates to the back of the rack. Push through; that's where the interesting things hide.
