THRIFTY SISTERS OFFERS THE AREA A TREASURE HUNT O ne of the best things about thrift stores is finding treasures. This is why most of us enjoy shows like “Antiques Roadshow” and “American Pickers.” We also like going to yard sales and antique shops. You truly never know what you are going to find! In Scotland County there are two women who refer to themselves as the “Thrifty Sisters.” They are not related but they have one big thing in common – they both own a Thrift Store. There is some crossover in the items they carry, but each store has a main focus of items and both ladies love to help their customers find whatever they are looking for. The 15/501 Thrift Store is located at 11081 John’s Road, just a mile outside the city limits of Laurinburg. Liz has over 2000 square feet of items ranging from Bicycles to antique farm equipment. She has a large selection of electronics and other household items as well as a variety of clothing for the entire family. Her outside area has tables available for rent so that you can set up and sell your own treasures. Re-Planted Thrift Store is located at 303 Atkinson in Laurinburg. Connie has 1,500 square feet featuring ladies clothing and other household items but the big windows in the front of her store has her main focus on her plants. Her plants come with care instruction cards and even if you think you can’t keep plants alive she is there to help. Follow her on Facebook to keep up with all of her specials. While in Scotland County, take the time to visit each of these lovely ladies to see what kind of treasures you might find, or maybe develop a green thumb with a little help.
