I have been waiting for an app like this for so long! Amazing resource for finding secondhand and charity shops not only in your local areas but when you are travelling too. We recently used the app to find places to shop while on holiday in Devon.

Amazing app

Tii

Downloaded the app and it’s been an instant life changer when thrifting! It allows you to learn about charity shops and other users’ thrift finds as well as interacting with reviews and being able to level up! Definitely recommend.

Informative

Love this app, gives you lots of information, you can see what others are buying and thrifting. You can also find other car boot sales, charity shops etc, when using the map tool. Top app.

Great app!

My wife & I love charity shopping, car boots and the like and this app is great! There were a few local spots missing but I’ve been able to manually add these and they’ve gone live within a day or 2 so really quick!

It finally exists!

I have searched for an app like this so many times over the years and it finally exists: a place to find even more places to buy second hand and vintage! It’s great for locating second hand hubs around different cities.

It’s a need!

Perfect for finding all sorts of shopping options through gandee, especially since I recently moved to a new area. My favourite aspect is the calendar so I can check what events are on, on any chosen day. Thank you

AMAZING
