About this Event

🌴 Thrift Away to Margaritaville – Bus Tour 🛍️🍹


Grab your flip flops and shopping bags – it’s time for another Thrifting Bus Tour Adventure! This trip brings together the thrill of treasure hunting and the laid-back vibes of Margaritaville for a full day of shopping, fun, and island-style relaxation.



🛍️ What’s Included:
  • Comfortable, luxury motor coach transportation with room for all your bargains under the bus.
  • Multiple stops at thrift, consignment, and resale shops – from designer clothes and handbags to home décor and vintage treasures.
  • A relaxing lunch stop at Margaritaville, Ft. Myers Beach – sip on something tropical, soak in the island vibes, and enjoy a delicious meal with your new thrifting friends. 🍹🌊
  • Even more shopping after lunch – because there’s always room for more finds!
  • Ice-cold water, snacks, refreshments, games and prizes.



🎉 Why You’ll Love It:
  • Discover shops you may have never found on your own.
  • Hunt for everything from fashion to home goods and rare gems.
  • Relax, laugh, and share the adventure with a bus full of fellow treasure hunters.
  • Soak up Margaritaville’s signature “It’s 5 o’clock somewhere” fun in the middle of your shopping day.

We all have treasures hiding in the closet—fabulous dresses, purses, décor, or kitchen gadgets that deserve a second life. Bring them along as a thrift store donation and we’ll reward you with extra raffle tickets for every item you give.
