Thrift Stores near Wells, ME

“The Ditty Box is a great little thrift shop! Though the shop is in a relatively small space, there is a good selection of clothing and dishes in particular. There is a small games/puzzles section (one of my personal favorite thrifting categories!) and a fabric section with EXTREMELY reasonable prices for my fellow aspiring sewers out there! Another huge plus: they even have a *Free* section with a variety of odds and ends! I got a wireless mouse (which hopefully works) and a JFK portrait (which I intend to hang up somewhere confusing to mess with my fiance) in the free section on my visit today!My favorite personal observation of this store is that they are incredibly generous with pricing; if an item has a preexisting tag on it they default to the lower of the tag prices, which is really nice. Even at Goodwill they'll charge you $5.00 for an item that clearly had a $0.50 price tag on it, so I really liked that they err on the side of caution when pricing items. The people who work there are also apparently all volunteers working with a local church (a "Congregational Church," no immediately recognizable denomination that I can tell; just wanted to add that for anyone whose decisions may be affected by that). Everything on the bag in my added photo only cost $12, and I got 3 books, a LOT of good quality fabric, a (hopefully functional) wireless mouse, a framed picture, a ship model kit with the building pieces still in sealed plastic, an embroidery kit, and a small sewing pattern! Feels crazy just typing it all out!Anyways, The Ditty Box is definitely worth checking out, and they will definitely do you right when you shop there!”

“AMAZING place! Tons of treasures at the best prices you’ll find. The two women working were so sweet too. We loved this place so much, can’t wait to stop by again next time we are in Maine!”

“Such a cute store! Tons of things! My coworker came here looking for things for our salon Sage & Ivy in Kennebunk, we'll be back! There's something for everyone !”

“This is hands down the best habitat for humanity restore I have ever been to. The staff are fabulous and the selections are always so thoughtfully displayed. Obsessed.”

“Please note that Outta The Box's hours change seasonally. (Generally 10-3pm in the off season and 9-4pm during spring, summer, and early autumn.)

Hours on Google Maps may not be accurate. Please visit the website for current information.

A full disclosure — I work for the organization that OTB supports. However, even if I didn't, I would still love the store: The volunteer staff are very friendly. The merchandise available for sale refreshes quite often. The pricing is very reasonable for a second-hand store. It's worth stopping in and looking around!”

“4 stars for pricing since they're higher than the average Goodwill/Savers. I kinda expected way lower since it's a church store.5 stars for organization and presentation. Staff was friendly too. Small store with mostly clothes. Some household, games, etc.”
