Hamilton East and Nearby Op shops
There are a total of seven shops to explore in Hamilton East and nearby. Three in Hamilton East, two in Claudelands and two in Five Cross Roads. See the map link below to see where they all are.
Hamilton East
The three shops in Hamilton East include Salvation Army Family store, the Red Cross Shop and directly arcoss the road is the SPCA. These shops are all within walking distance and are quite small shops. The Red Cross is mainly clothing while the other two have a variety.
Claudelands
Located in Claudelands is the Hospice Shop and Op Shop St Aidans. The Hospice shop would have to be my favourite probably because of the effort they put in with their displays, its also a big store. Though sometime prices can be a little on the high side on this visit I managed to find a few things to bring home. I didnt manage to vist St Aidans this time.
Five Cross Roads
At Five Cross Roads are the Red Cross and the Salvation Army Stores. Both stores are close together, across a parking lot. Both are quite small but they have something to offer to customers lots of second hand things!
