On Saturday 17 October 2026, shoppers can enjoy 50% off across Vinnies NSW Shops and Vinnies Finds, Vinnies’ online destination for curated pre-loved fashion, in celebration of World Op Shop Day.

Whether shoppers are hunting for a vintage statement piece, refreshing their wardrobe, furnishing their home or simply looking for an unexpected bargain, World Op Shop Day is an invitation to discover the joy of second-hand shopping, while knowing every purchase helps make a difference in communities across NSW.

Gemma Presley, Retail Experience & Brand Manager, Vinnies NSW, comments: “World Op Shop Day is a wonderful opportunity to celebrate everything people love about op shopping; the thrill of finding something unique, the affordability, the sustainability and the sense of community.

“For one day only, we are making the experience even more exciting with 50% off across our Vinnies NSW Shops and Vinnies Finds. It’s the perfect excuse to explore your local Vinnies, discover something special and shop with purpose.”

From vintage clothing and accessories to homewares, books, furniture, sporting goods and more, Vinnies shops offer an ever-changing selection of pre-loved treasures. Every purchase gives items another life while helping generate funds to support Vinnies’ work with people experiencing hardship across NSW.
