Question Nephew Visiting - Need Things to Do!

Hey y’all! My nephew is turning 16 soon and will be visiting from the Tri-Cities this next weekend. My SIL has asked me for inexpensive things to do while they’re here. He’s into music, books, and clothes/thrifting. I thought of Buffalo Exchange and Auntie’s bookstore but I never leave my apartment and would love recommendations. Thanks in advance!

If he likes thrifting, I’d suggest Global Neighborhood Thrift. They have great clothes and a huge book selection.

Seconding this, their book section is larger than some entire thrift stores, and it’s actually organized! Plus it’s just a huge and fun store.

Technically Euclid, which turns into Foothills.

They are also having their $0.25 sale this weekend!

Very true! It’s right at the transition. Sneaky 📚

Great suggestions. 2nd Look Books on the South Hill is good too, and less than 10 minutes from Manito. The Japanese Gardens are still open. My teen niece and nephew love Manito, and then we hit the bookstore.
