Community Thrift Shop

439 Ninth Street

​

Since moving to its new location on Ninth Street a few years ago, Lanai Thrift Shop has gained many new fans in the community. With an array of gently used clothing (including a selection of keiki clothes), small household items and appliances, books, DVDs, toys and more, there’s something for everyone to reuse or repurpose.

Many of the items are 50 cents or less, making the thrift shop a great place to score a deal on a back-to-school wardrobe for kids or pick up a few pots and pans. The thrift store also carries and accepts donations of seasonal items such as Halloween costumes and holiday decorations.

“We’re so appreciative of the community and their support of the thrift shop,” said Pastor Dorothy Lester of Lanai Union Church, which has run the thrift shop for more than 20 years. “Proceeds from the thrift shop make it possible for us to put on many youth programs throughout the year.”
