Thrifty Business has a lot of heart, making it a terrific title to pick up and wind down to. The characters are charming, the variety of items is great, and the laid-back, no-stress experience is something that has been rare in the genre for many years. If that sounds like something you'd enjoy, then I can't recommend the title more!
Thrifty Business is a good game that suffers from occasionally trying to be something it doesn't really need to be. I don't always understand the developers' thinking, but that might also be because I'm not part of the intended target audience for all aspects of the experience. If, however, you're looking for a relaxing and well-made flea market simulator with small puzzle elements, I definitely think you should take a closer look at Thrifty Business.
If you really enjoy organisation, then I’m sure this will be really satisfactory for you. However, if you’re like me and you get a bit bored of doing the same thing over and over again, then I think you will get limited enjoyment out of this game.
A quirky shop simulator, Thrifty Business allows you to let your creativity run wild as you decorate your store exactly how you'd like. It's laid back, though some players might dislike the lack of any real direction.
Thrifty Business is available today on Steam and is currently listed (as of May 18th, 2026) for $11.69 (a 10% discount for the normal price of $12.99).
