What do you do when you've come to the beachside town of Victor Harbor for the weekend and it's grey and drizzly? Go op-shopping and garage sale-ing, of course!
My first stop on the Friday afternoon was the Terrific Trio - Vinnies, Salvos and Whalers Emporium. They are situated more-or-less three in a row, so you can go bonkers! The Vinnies and Salvos are quite upmarket and I have made some great additions to my wardrobe over the last few years thanks to them.
The ADRA op shop is open Tuesday, Wednesday and Sunday and is a gigantic warehouse of homewares, furniture, clothing and other delights. (And remember, the Da Loop preloved clothing shop is open 24 hours!)

This weekend I found one garage sale and I am sure I would have found more if I had spent less time eating and drinking and more time looking. I'm in Victor often and I see many garage sale signs. Check out this gorgeous wool and acrylic vintage top I picked up from a great sale on the January long weekend. |

The grey sky mustn't have been much of a deterrent - the town was bustling (I heard the Coast 2 Coast Tuna Tournament was on, and from experience fisherpeople aren't put off by foul weather ... ) and there was a line-up at Klaus' Hot Dog stand. But I still get the sense that something isn't quite right in Victor - Greenhills Adventure Park, we miss you! Rain or shine, you always gave us a good time. R.I.P.
