Shopping Tips

  • Make the most of your visit to Blue Butterfly Thrift Store in Watertown, WI with these insider tips:
  • Visit early in the week — Monday and Tuesday mornings are often the best time to catch newly stocked items before they're picked over by weekend shoppers.
  • Come with an open mind and a flexible list; the magic of thrifting at Blue Butterfly is that unexpected finds are half the fun.
  • Check clothing tags and seams carefully under the store's lighting — quality pieces from name brands turn up regularly and are well worth a few extra seconds of inspection.
  • If you're shopping for home décor or kitchenware, bring measurements of your space or a quick photo on your phone so you don't pass up a perfect fit.
