Thrift store recommendations in Austin, TX

I'm taking a trip to visit my college bestie in Austin in May. I'll have 2 days to explore on my own (when I arrive and the day I leave) because my friend has to work those days. Her fiance is lending me his car bc he works from home so I'll have a way to get around.

I've been wearing secondhand clothing only since ~2020 and only wear sustainable/thrifted clothing, so I'm SO excited for Austin because I've heard the thrifting scene is incredible there and I've never been.

I've tried to do a lot of research on TikTok and IG, but I just feel overwhelmed by all the options and can't tell what is actually good vs what is just instarammy/influencer stuff. So I thought I'd ask on Reddit because I feel like it's where the real people are at lol.

I'm mostly looking for clothing because I'm traveling from AZ and prob won't be able to take furniture or home goods back on a plane.

I'm looking for:

1-2 vintage-focused stores (can be high quality/designer or not! Just vintage vibes/genuine vintage stuff not just stuff that looks vintage).

1-2 'thrill of the hunt' stores with affordable prices and where you can find some really cool stuff

Anything else, locals or people who are familiar with Austin recommend for thrifting/vintage shopping. It can be slightly outside of Austin, too! Thanks, all!
