This consignment shop has a selection that's a few steps above the standard thrift store, and for designer bargains it can't be beat. The store expands back through a series of cramped rooms (you'll miss the best stuff if you don't wander beyond the front room), with clothes organized by color, making it easy to scope out the perfect black dress. The longer a piece stays in stock, the lower the price drops -- and I've done plenty of double-takes at the price tags here: Calvin Klein coats, Prada sweaters, and Armani jackets all going for well under $100. If that's not tempting enough, you'll also find barely used shoes and purses. McShane's also has another location at 1141 W. Webster St. (tel. 773/525-0211), with a similar selection.
