The opening of APA! Thrift on Burnet, our flagship location, marked the beginning of a movement. With a hearty nod to the O.G. thrift stores of the past, our Burnet store offers top-quality merchandise at refreshing throw-back prices. Don't let the old-school deals and retro pawnshop mojo fool you though, we have our paws firmly in the now, with ALL of our net-proceeds helping to find loving homes for local homeless animals currently most at risk for euthanasia.
Offering two floors of thrifting bliss complete with nooks and crannies galore, APA! Thrift on Burnet makes scoring that elusive find a legit adventure. Come for the gold-rush treasure hunt, the designer fashion steals, the vintage accoutrements or just the good times and good vibes. No matter what you're into, chances are we have at least a few of them and chances are 100% that your support of the store will give the gift of a second-chance to a loving companion animal here in Central Texas.
Come visit us at 5801 Burnet Road, right across the street from the Allandale Shopping Center, and experience where the magic started!
What's better than thrifting to save animals? How about multiple locations to do it! Opening on the heels of the massive success of our flagship location, APA! Thrift on Oltorf hit the ground running and hasn't looked back. True to APA!'s colorful south-Austin roots, our Oltorf location blends some major old-school funk with a delicious splash of bling. While we might not take ourselves too seriously at our Oltorf location, you can bet we're serious about slinging crazy deals and helping save as many homeless animals as possible.
Located between CVS and ABGB, find us tucked just off South Lamar, one of the hottest drags in Austin. Bask in the our plentiful parking as you enjoy our huge selection of gorgeous and pristine clothing, shoes, jewelry, home decor, kitchenware, furniture, electronics, and knick-knackery of every shape and color. Yet, just when you thought our prices and cause were cause for celebratory daily visits, throw in a bevy of in-store events like dog yoga, clothing swaps and foster-pup takeovers, to name a few and Thrift South might just toe the line of thrifting nirvana. Visit us at 1409 West Oltorf, your one-stop shop for the entire family. Well see ya here!
Broaden your thrifting experience by visiting our newest and largest store at 51st and Clarkson. 51st gives you more than just your average thrift store beginning in the parking lot. Before you step inside the door, check out the murals created by local artists that adorn the front and sides of the building. Once inside you will find that 51st is a lot larger than it looks and you can’t help but feel its unique funky vibe that reminds you to Keep Austin Weird. This location is proud to offer the largest Women’ s Boutique section of all the APA Thrift stores with several selfie worthy vignettes throughout and a staff that loves to chat about movies, music, art and their pets. 51st is also the only location with a season and holiday inspired Staff Picks rack, Vintage Accessories and a Boutique Shoe and Purse nook complete with a comfy spot to sit and try on shoes, take some selfies to share on your social media and large mirrors to check out how your new items look.
Did I mention that the staff here loves their pets? You can view pictures of the Pet’s of 51st, proudly displayed on the wall and in the true spirit of APA, you can meet and hang out with the one and only Bug. Bug is a friendly and lovable cat that was abandoned in the 51st parking lot in her carrier. Adopted by APA and taken care of by the 51st staff, she is the first APA Thrift Boutique Shop Cat. You can find her napping on her favorite
brown chair in Vintage Clothing, lounging under the fake tree in Furnishings or sprawled out on the rug in Jewelry waiting for some attention and a chat. If you drive by early in the morning before the store opens, you may even see her hanging out by the front door waiting for the day's festivities to begin.
APA 51st is an experience, complete with great music, an ever expanding selection of clothing and goods, a staff that supports all that is unique and local to Austin ..........and we like to keep Christmas lights up all year!
