About BTS Thrift Boutique

BTS Thrift Boutique is a charity-run thrift store located in Santa Monica, California. The shop offers a wide range of donated items including clothing, shoes, accessories, furniture, housewares, artwork, books, records, and various vintage and collectible pieces.

A charge labeled “BTS SANTA MONICA CA” on a card statement is very likely from an in‑person purchase at BTS Thrift Boutique’s Lincoln Boulevard location in Santa Monica. Customers typically see these charges after buying secondhand clothing, furniture, or household items, or after larger one‑time purchases of furnishings or collectibles. Because it’s a physical thrift store, amounts can vary widely—from small impulse purchases to higher totals if multiple items or furniture pieces were bought in a single visit.([mapquest.com](https://www.mapquest.com/us/california/bts-thrift-boutique-442689773?utm_source=openai))

If you don’t recognize the charge, start by checking recent paper or emailed receipts from thrift and charity shops in the Santa Monica area, especially around the transaction date. You can also call the store using the phone number listed on local directory listings or on their website to confirm the transaction details and the last four digits of the card used. If the store cannot find a matching sale, contact your card issuer to dispute the charge; they may ask for the transaction date, amount, and descriptor (“BTS SANTA MONICA CA”) and can investigate further or block your card if fraud is suspected.

How can I get a receipt or proof of purchase for a BTS Thrift Boutique charge?

If you need a receipt, first check your physical receipts or email for the date of the purchase.
