Vernon (again)

Back in the north/central Okanagan and visited a couple of "new" thrift stores, one I didn't think of visiting and one I surprisingly hadn't known about.

On 31st Avenue at 31st Street is the Vernon Pro-Life Society thrift shop.  Not religious unlike the one in Kelowna (Catholic), it is a usual small thrift shop except no furniture.  Paid street parking seems to be the rule here.



At the north en of town on 24th Street at 55th Avenue is the newer store of the Salvation Army.  This medium-sized one is set in a warehouse/commercial space so is quite airy unlike the old shop in downtown Vernon (which has been rearranged).  Prices on some items can be quite high (again, unlike the old shop though they are in the same division of the SA).  Free lot parking.
