One of the best resale shop finds ever!
Years ago, I thrifted a High School Musical Build-A-Bear. It had no clothing, but the bear had the logo on its paw!

What did I find
Years later, I randomly went to a resale shop and found the High School Musical – Build-A-Bear T-shirt for only $4!
It also had the original tags!
A big full circle moment, considering I recently did a post on customizing a bear for under $10 at the thrift!
Where did I find it
Encore Upscale Resale is a 501(C)3 nonprofit ministry of Southfield Christian.
This resale shop features high-end clothing, everyday brands, antiques, household items, and a section dedicated to children’s clothing and toys. It’s not super expensive, but it’s not a typical thrift store.
They source donations, including clothing items, shoes, jewelry, collectibles, and daily essentials. Proceeds help assist tuition at Southfield Christian School, a private Christian school for young women and men, from Preschool to 12th grade, teaching students the principles of the Bible to help them live prosperous lives, according to their website.
The shop offers daily and weekly sales, including 50% household goods and clothing items.

My experience at Encore
In my opinion, Encore sells more antique and boutique-style finds. I typically don’t shop for clothing there, but their household goods are really unique and fun to search through. I found a teddy bear pancake pan, craft supplies like vintage stamps, and decorative paper.
Where is Encore located?
Encore Upscale Resale is located at 29080 Southfield Road in Southfield, Michigan.
