What is an Op Shop?
An op shop (short for "opportunity shop") is an Australian term for a charity-run second-hand store. Also known as thrift stores, charity shops or second-hand shops, op shops sell donated clothing, furniture, books, homewares and other goods at low prices. All proceeds go to charitable organisations.
Australia has a thriving op shop culture, with major chains like Salvos Stores (Salvation Army), Vinnies (St Vincent de Paul Society), Lifeline and Red Cross shops found in cities and towns across the country. Many independent community op shops also operate in local neighbourhoods.
