Annie Laurie’s Antiques

Great antique shop. Lots of fun things to discover. Very retro finds.

Quite possibly the best shop in Cape Girardeau! Overflowing with vintage treasures. Take your time to stroll through and slowly uncover all the wonders offered here. I spent over an hour just browsing the displays. All are carefully arranged for your viewing pleasure. Room after room this shop is filled with relics from the past. They offer everything. Clothing, accessories, nicknacks and furniture at beyond reasonable prices. Living in NYC spending $ 6 for two tomatos is the norm, I have become accustomed to paying top dollar for just about everything. I was in shock at the prices. Only $ 10 dollars for that prefect condition 1920’s linen hat, $ 15 for that beautiful1950’s dress… How can this be??!
That being said, by the time I finally reached the dressing room my arms were overflowing with treasure. Picture a little child rummaging through a toy store (a smile from ear to ear) picking up things as she goes, arms so filled she can barely see where she is walking.
(They do offer baskets for this very reason)
I ended up purchasing so many items I am now in search of a UPS store so I can ship it all to New York. I’ll be going back tomorrow for round two just to make sure I didn’t miss anything.
Part of me doesn’t want to tell the world because of my own selfish hording reasons. Mine mine all mine! But something must be said because this store really is a jem. Shhhhhh through… Let’s just keep the secret between us.

This is not to be missed. It is the most unique experience I have had in an antique store. Well worth your time.

One word: KITTY!
This place is the bomb when it comes to antiques. We were passing through Cape for a lunch break and decided to check this place out — and I’m so glad we did. Annie Laurie’s is in an old funeral home in the charming downtown area of Cape Girardeau.
Packed with very reasonably-​priced items as far as the eye can see: glassware, vintage kitchen stuff, lamps, wall art, furniture, you name it.
Oh, and there is a cat named Dan.
Laurie (owner) is very friendly and helpful.
