The Delta Hospital Auxillary Thrift Store in Ladner (4816 Delta Ave., Ladner, BC) is definitely old school when it comes to how they do business. And it shows, their shop is always busy. Located in the quaint fishing village known as Ladner, this thrift store (located in two separate store fronts side by side) has a wonderful selection of clothing, housewares, books, some furniture, collectibles, sports gear, tools, electronics and so much more. And, everything is priced to sell. Here you can actually find many different items under a dollar and the clothing has fixed prices that are extremely reasonable.
As a result of their prices being so low, their stock is constantly changing and many of the locals visit the store at least a few times a week to see what new items have come in. They cater to all ages and the friendly volunteers who run the store are always eager to help. I also appreciate how well organized they are and how clean everything is. The atmosphere is quite fun and I can’t help myself but want to buy something. This last time I found a really nice white long sleeved Tshirt for $3. It looks quite new and fits like a glove.
Every month they also host the Collectible’s Sale where they will bring out a terrific selection of some of their better pieces that include collectibles, antiques, silver, china, vintage clothing, retro housewares, etc. Although the prices for these sales are a bit higher, they are still priced to sell. Well worth checking out! Their next Collectible Sale is set for September 30th 10am to 3pm.

As a loyal long time customer I have slowly noticed that the so low prices have increased considerably in the last month or so. some times double what the have been in the past. As a mom the toys were my selling point on coming to the store from another city but, now the are the same as value village prices. Old school prices maybe should be reviewed
Hi, I agree. I have noticed that many local thrift shops are starting to become more “boutique” like and increasing their prices substantially. I hope that this is just temporary and that they will get back to being old school with their pricing so that it becomes a win win for everyone.
I agree with you both here, we have been going to this thrift shop for a long time, and slowly its become much more expensive then before – last visit they had a stuffed toy horse for $4.00!!! I politely told my daughter it was to much. The Tsawassen location is even worse!
