                              A Unique & Affordable Thrift Boutique

A refreshingly unique and affordable shopping experience. A secret that the rest of the world is missing, but, not for long…

 

  The Green Door is first and foremost a place for folks to come looking for deals on good used clothing. It’s also a place to find STUFF you won’t find anywhere else. It’s a place where you can go and have fun, especially if you are a bargain shopper who would like to get in on a good deal without having to mortgage the farm. We carry men’s and women’s brand name clothing, footwear, purses, home decor, books, and much more.

 

  Did you know that Americans throw away 12.4 million tons of textiles (clothing) each year? Now you can look at this two ways:

 

  1. If you’re going to throw away your clothing anyway, you should be buying gently      used clothing in the first place and save yourself a lot of money.

  2. Instead of paying $87.50 for a new Ralph Lauren shirt at Younkers, why not

     buy the same shirt (okay, okay . . .someone else may have worn it already) for a       TENTH of the price?

 

   At the Green Door, the Big Ticket Items are in the twenty dollar range. You can get suits and coats and sports jackets and lamps and lamp shades all for well under twenty dollars.

 

   The drive out to Mt. Vernon on the old Lincoln Highway from Cedar Rapids takes under 15 minutes. You can’t even drive from one side of Cedar Rapids to the other in the same amount of time, and the drive’s rural scenery is beautiful. After you’ve experienced The Green Door, Mt. Vernon also has many small specialty shops and wonderful restaurants. 

 

Come out to the Green Door for a shopping adventure you won’t forget.
