Miri : Red Crescent Thrift Centre

This Thrift Centre is huge by any centre. The 3 R Campaign helps to bring in recyclable items and sellable items are sold at very minimal prices on Mondays Wednesdays and Saturdays. Lots of volunteers help out mostly with sorting.

According to Mdm Chiew( one of the helpers here) - people do come in to buy items regularly. And business is pretty good. She is a very cheerful person who welcomes Mirians to drop by.

The Leos of Kolej TDTH Bujang came for a visit and donated some items towards the 3R project. They were led by the Pricipal Cik Hashimah Zen and Mdm Yeoh Ban Keng.

The cashier is busy receiving the cash from the enthusiastic purchasers.

I like this corner in particular. Jeans of every cut and every label!!


It seems that people donate lots of belts and hand bags. So this is a big section .


Lots of good used books can be found here. They are usually sold for 2 ringgit each so one can read and discard...with lots of pleasure.
