The municipality of Delta is a weird entity. Divided by Burns Bog, it has tonier suburbs to the west (Ladner and Tsawwassen), and a less-desirable neighborhood called North Delta to the east, which borders of Surrey. West Delta is home to 4 thrift shops, two each in Ladner and Tsawwassen.
There are two in Ladner. On Elliott Road where River Road ends is the Finds Children's thrift. It's a small shop, apparently very well-organised, that has children's clothes and toys. Free street parking.
On Delta Street between Bridge and 48th Avenue is the famous Delta Hospital Auxilliary's thrift shop. This shop has grown to occupy 3 shop fronts in a strip mall, one for housewares, one for clothes and one for furniture and fine wares. Well-staffed by volunteers, it is very neatly organised and has an apparent high turnover of goods. Fine items are saved for a collectibles sale every few weeks that reportedly draws in big crowds and lines. Prices appear to be very good. Very busy small strip-mall parking out front but there is free street parking available.
Down in Tsawwassen, one finds two thrift stores on 56th Street. On the west side between 16 and 14B Avenue is Delta Hospice's Hospice Cottage thrift shop. Medium-sized, it has a good collection of goods which can be of quite high quality. There's always a display of fine china collections and sets. Lots of other items too and fairlu well-organised by the volunteers. Very reasonable prices. Parking lot.
Across the road between View Crescent and 12th Avenue is the Delta Youth Support Link shop. This is a small shop so has a limited number of items. Neatly-organised, it has the usual assortment. Very reasonable prices. Strip mall parking.
