Fin's Finds brings thrift style to Cedar Rapids shoppers
Owner Fia Joseph moved back to the United States and opened Fin's Finds on First Avenue East, expanding from earlier thrift roots. The showroom changes constantly with new items, 12 staff, and a mixed pricing approach from full price to 50 percent off as items age. Consignors number about 425 with no appointment needed for drop offs, focusing on quality over quantity to maximize quick sales.
