A great selection of antiques and fun knick knacks from the past. We spent a good 45 walking around the store before we finally selected a couple things to buy. We wished we had brought our trailer with us so we could have picked up some furniture. Kijiji is still cheaper but this is all conveniently in once place!

We love poking in antique shops and other places that offer unique items. Frugal and Company is fun but small. It doesn't seem to specialize in any particular area but has a bit of everything. Clean, appealing display of product (not too cluttered). Not a "stand out" stop but, if you're in Picton or nearby already, it's worth a 15 minute stop.

This place is fun, fun, fun! There is definitely something for anyone who has a fetish for Pyrex, vinyl or comics, and anything else you can imagine. This place is packed with people non stop
Ended up buying a retro Kathy Winkle place setting, a couple Nancy Drew books and a 1960's Life Magazine all for under $40. Not bad....not bad at all. Worth checking out for sure. Though they open later in the morning, they are usually open later into the evening long after some of the other shops have closed.

Don't get me wrong, I thoroughly enjoyed walking through the shop, and checking it all out, it's like a museum.
But, as soon as I saw the "Please don't try and negotiate our more than reasonable prices" sign, I knew they were going to be high, and they are. They're are asking premium retail prices for what they sell, and I knew I wasn't going to be spending a dime there.
Drive around the countryside for the day and you'll find more than your fair share of antique stores and markets that are more reasonably priced, you'll just have to look a little harder for what you want.

What a great find! Walking in the doors of their new store is liking walking back in time, actually, it's like walking back into many different times. There is so much to take in and explore. Definitely worth spending the time to slowly go through the place as there are a lot of hidden treasures just waiting to be discovered! There's also an artisan soapmaker there with some lovely soaps, creams and bath bombs plus other stuff. Very cool.
Highly recommend this store and the shopkeeper is a hoot!

Frugal and Company located on Main Street in the heart of Picton, ON, is a great place to visit and turn back the hands of time. An eclectic collection of vintage and art deco treasures will bring back memories of a time gone by. Tastefully displayed with new finds arriving daily, Frugal and Company is well worth a visit. Prices are very fair and if you are really lucky it might even be a surprise 'Frugal Friday' when the fruendly helpful owner of this fascinating and fun store offers a nice discount. Don't miss a visit to Frugal and Company next time you are in Picton!

Some interesting items available. A cross between upcycling and nostalgia. Glad I stopped in and checked it out. There is even an old school pinball machine for usage.

Could not stop smiling when I dropped into this funky shop called Frugal & Company on Main Street Picton. Totally cool! I loved the vibe and the eclectic mix of old and funky. Cow skulls, advertising signs, suitcases and rotary phones, just to name a few of the goodies they carry. Will definitely be dropping in there to shop for Christmas.

This is a store on Main St in Picton, ON. It is full of vintage items – like an antique store but they don’t look like one. They also sell locally made dessert/food stuff - we bought chocolate macaroons and they were decadent. The staff is fantastic and extremely friendly. I bought a 1951 Coca Sign that was in pretty good shape. This is a fantastic store to go into. A definite on a Sunday afternoon.
