The ladies running this shop have become more than just a friendly face, they have become friends and seeing their smiles (almost daily) and hearing their laughter brings light to my lunch breaks! In addition to the fantastic women working here, we can always find some new treasure f…

I love this store. I usually go in every Wednesday to see what awesome new things they got in. They are always super nice and helpful! I collect elephants... yesterday when I went in, they literally had aaaalllll of the elephants. And they cut me a deal for the large purchase!

About Have To Have It! Thrift Shoppe

Have To Have It! Thrift Shoppe is a community staple on US-17 in Hampstead where the thrill of the hunt is half the fun. Shoppers come in weekly — some almost daily — because fresh donations mean new treasures every single visit. Our staff goes out of their way to help: they'll track down a specific item you described, cut you a deal on a big haul, and greet you by name before long. From antique silver tea sets and beach decor to barely-used kitchen appliances and a full rack of clothing in every size, there's always something worth taking home — usually for a lot less than you'd expect.\n\nReady to find your next great find? Stop in and see what's waiting for you today.
