Our History

Welcome to AREA THRIFTY ONE, where Shelagh Maben has crafted an inclusive, cosmic thrifting haven in the high desert. Formerly known as Quality Treasures Thrift, Shelagh’s 2022 sci-fi-inspired transformation invites everyone to explore a universe of unique finds.

At AREA THRIFTY ONE, it’s more than just thrifting. Sassy the Seamstress is part of our crew, offering free consultations for alterations and selling edgy handmade jewelry, wind chimes, and vintage collectibles.

Fuel your high desert adventure with LV COFFEE RUNNERS, stationed right here Friday, Saturday and Sunday mornings with gourmet pour-over coffee, giant cookies, cinnamon buns, breakfast burritos, and their legendary tamales.  Pre-order and catering? They’ve got you covered!

Guitar Myk is also part of the AREA THRIFTY ONE family, providing a steady stream of quality guitars and expert repairs for music lovers.
