I think there is a store I believe it is Gilford or right on the Laconia/Gilford line. It is between the Union Diner and McDonald's same side of the street.

The thrift shop is St. Vincent DePaul and it is on Union Ave. near the McDonalds. My friend donated the contents of her late mother's summer camp last spring and I helped her with the boxes. It looked like they have all types of items there.

I thought there was also one right in downtown-maybe it's not there anymore.

There is a Salvation Army in between Rt 106 and Rt 11A on Rt3 almost right across the street from CVS, going North on Rt3 in would be right after the hospital entrance. The Goodwill is on Pleasant St

Do your feet a favor, buy a pair of hikers of your/her own. You need not spend 2-300 dollars but get a pair so you can enjoy the hike and avoid carrying the person out with sore or blistered feet. I have taken day hikes with Merrill shoes with vibram soles and they weren't expensive and I love the shoes. Llbean also has great options...
Don't buy second hand shoes for hiking mt washington...could become a blistering mistake.
