    I've gotten really into bargain hunting lately, I usually do it at home but I'll be in town during the week, just wondering which charity shops should I look into?
    Any particularly good ones or hidden gems?

    Thanks :)

    There arent really any good ones in the city center tbh, I find the best places are towns outside of it like Dun Laoigre and Bray. Depends what youre looking for tho

    I live in Bray and I find them awful... I'm looking for things like dresses but at the moment I'm on the lookout for a nice big hat :)

    I've heard Oxfam has a nice one on Main Street in Dundrum.
    Hope this helps. :)

    Theres a good few around George's Street, heard good things about the ones on Camden St. Worth a walk up from Georges St to Camden st for a look.

    There's one on Capel Street called the goodwill thrift shop. I've never been in but from walking by the window each day there seems to be quite a lot of cool stuff in there.

    Also there's a big oxfam one just off Parnell Street but I think that's only furniture

    I have been in there - usually looking for books myself. I didn't see anything much different to any other charity shop. On the subject of charity shops - the Capel Street Goodwill Thrift Shop doesn't seem to have any affiliation to a charity, or did I miss a poster somewhere?
