About Us

Tour de Thrift  began while we were living in Maine for 2 years. We decided to document our thrift shopping adventures as we learned our way around Maine.  We also want to include information for folks who may be visiting Maine (it’s a huge state!) and looking for good junk/flea/thrift shopping locations.

The project was called Tour de Thrift and soon caught on and received a little bit of publicity on the Goodwill of Northern New England blog. Several readers of our first blog Second Wind Cabin (now defunct), who were following the project also thought that Tour de Thrift should continue and grow into its own blog with reviews, shopping itineraries, resources and the occasional DIY.

We’ve relocated again, this time to central Pennsylvania. Tour de Thrift continues with a new region to explore and now includes our old home renovation adventures. If you’d like to stay in touch and learn more about what we’re up to join our email list and we’ll shoot you an email if something extra special is happening.
