Thrift stores in Minneapolis
Thrift stores reward the patient. In Minneapolis, MN that patience currently stretches across 83 mapped shops — 34 of them are charity shops and 49 are independent second-hand stores, so Minneapolis gives you both flavours of thrifting in one trip.
This guide covers every thrift store we could verify in and around Minneapolis (within about 40 km), built from OpenStreetMap's community-maintained data.

What the map tells us about thrifting in Minneapolis
37 of the 83 shops list their opening hours, which is unusually helpful for Minneapolis — thrift stores are notorious for surprise closures. Still, call ahead if you're making a special trip to Minneapolis; volunteer-run shops sometimes close early on quiet days.
21 shops have websites listed, worth a look before you go — some post new arrivals or sale days online.
The Minneapolis thrift circuit
Plot these 83 on a map and the day plans itself: Local Imports on 8085 Old Carriage Court, Turn Style, Ragstock on 1433A West Lake Street, Animal Ark Thrift & Pet Store on 809 7th Street East, 2nd Wind Exercise Equipment, Music Go Round, Nine Lives, and Bearded Mermaid Bazaar. That's the full Minneapolis circuit in one sensible order. 75 more are listed below.
Thrifting tips for Minneapolis
Regulars learn these fast; visitors to Minneapolis can skip the learning curve:
- The book section is underpriced everywhere at Local Imports. Books are heavy, slow to sell, and priced to clear. First editions and out-of-print gems hide here regularly.
- Bring a tape measure at Turn Style. The perfect sideboard is useless if it won't fit through your door. Tape measure in the bag, every trip.
- Ask about hold policies. Eyeing furniture you can't take today? Many shops will hold an item for 24 hours. Ask before someone else buys it.
- Learn your fabrics. A quick touch tells wool from acrylic, leather from pleather. Natural fibres at thrift prices are the whole game.
Good to know
We searched about 40 km around Minneapolis — that covers the town itself plus the surrounding communities you'd reasonably drive to for a thrifting run. Listings come from OpenStreetMap, mapped by local volunteers, so a brand-new shop in Minneapolis can take a while to appear. If you spot one of the 83 that's closed, or a great shop we missed, the fix is to update the map itself — that's where this guide reads from.
Prices at Minneapolis's thrift stores are set by each shop and change constantly, so we don't list them. As a rough rule, charity shops are the cheapest, independents sit in the middle, and anything labelled vintage costs more everywhere — Minneapolis included.
Thrift store listings for Minneapolis: 83 mapped from OpenStreetMap contributors (ODbL). Photos from Wikimedia Commons contributors; individual photo credits appear in captions. Listing data was last refreshed automatically — verify hours before visiting.
