I rarely find anything to fit me in charity shops, but my husband gets a lot of nice shirts at our local favorite.
If it's called an antique shop, not really; where I live, those tend to be full of expen$ive fancy items I neither need nor want. If it calls itself a flea market, sure; you can get a lot of useful stuff in good condition for reasonable prices.
Nope, not always. I avoid those that are religious-themed, or owned by large national chains, because as a rule they have nothing I want to buy. Used bookstores, though, I always check out, and if they're any good I go back again and again.
