Go to Diversity Thrift buy all the stuff, it’s all on sale
Changes are coming to Diversity Thrift and they need to make room, so there are major bargains to be had.
Bargain hunters rejoice. Diversity Thrift (1407 Sherwood Ave) is expanding but before they do that they need to clear up space. The easiest way to clear up space is by having other people haul it away. To help folks haul the most amount of stuff they’ve reduced the prices of nearly everything.
There’s a big sale going on right now at Diversity Thrift, the excellent LGBTQ-run thrift store connected to Diversity Richmond. But it’s not just any old sale–it’s clearing the way for big improvements. The store has been in need of some basic structural renovations, and the sale will help clear the way for Diversity Thrift to get a new floor.
The sale itself ends Friday, so you will need to hurry down there if you want to take advantage of the prices on offer. With books marked down as low as 10 cents, furniture starting at 50 percent off, and all clothes for sale for $1-3, this is really a bargain hunter’s dream. You could do a lot worse than to head right over there as soon as you get off work.
For the next few weeks, Diversity will be undergoing some changes. The store will be entirely closed from September 2 through the 5th, as the remaining merchandise is moved out of the store. Diversity Thrift will then reopen as a pop-up boutique inside the Diversity Richmond event hall, located on the other side of the building from the thrift store space.
The pop-up shop will open September 6 and remain open through the 15th, at which time it will close again in order for final touches to be made on the Diversity Thrift space, and for the merchandise to be moved back. The store will reopen in its regular location, complete with a brand new floor, on September 19.
