This was never my #1 thrift store in town but boy have they gone down hill. I used to love to get kids clothes here. Now they are selling used Carter's baby shirts for $6 not exaggerating. $12 for several used granny nightgowns. They don't even do color of the week anymore so the racks are so full you can't even browse. I assume most people just see the price tag and walk away. Hope management changes again soon for the better.

This used to be a great thrift store. Prices used to be on point with discount "color" tags. I have no clue if it is just this location, new owners or managers but WOW. The prices have went up drastically. A bra was $14.99....some shorts were $18.99. Saw a Fried Cotton tee used for $9.99.This is stuff that is used and donated to them. What happened to reasonable prices? I saw a few things but I could get them at the store cheaper. Don't waste your time unless you don't mind paying almost full price for something. Just saddens me cause this is where I used to meander on my lunch break but no way am I going anymore.

It’s an okay thrift store. I’ve found some nice things here before, but the prices at this store are getting to be a bit high for second hand items. The customer service could be much better. When I was in the store today, they turned off the lights 10 minutes before closing time to force customers to leave…

This was once my favorite thrift store. They’ve changed their pricing, and there is no longer any discount, to any non-furniture items. $30.99 for used shorts, sports bras, leggings, etc.. that you can buy new, for the same price, even less, or a little more. Sometimes you can still find a few items that aren’t insanely overpriced, but it’s not really worth coming anymore.

$10 for a used tshirt? There is a reason the store was empty on a Saturday and the racks were so full you couldn’t look through them.

Amazing place! Very clean and well organized. The people who work there are absolutely wonderful. We found so many quality things at awesome prices. I really enjoyed my visit. Looking forward to keeping this place on rotation.

I absolutely love shopping at this thrift store! I am very shocked to see some reviews saying how unwelcome and disappointed they were with those that work at the store. I have never had a bad experience here with the employees. In fact, I have always had a very positive experience at this store and the staff is wonderful to chat with. They also have some great items at great prices and even have discounts of 50% off or 99 cent items based upon colored tags (clothing only). Love this place and highly recommend to check this thrift store out!

I find myself shopping here at least a couple times a month, and I always end up walking out with some great stuff. Like other thrift stores, you’ll find the best “treasures” if you’re able to visit them frequently. Some clothing is overpriced (closer to vintage than regular thrift prices), but they will give you half-off on items they’ve had for 2 (I think) months. Lots of other good deals - 25% off for students, $0.99 clothing rack, half off days for certain clothing tag colors, etc. They apparently receive A LOT of donations, so the store is sometimes a bit overstocked (maybe that’s why some reviewers say it’s messy), but to me this just means they have a large, ever changing selection. My only real quip is that they’re not always accepting donations from the public (probably because of the high volume they receive from other sources).

Very good selection of lots of things. First time that I've seen a thirft store that's organized. Yes not perfect but you can get down the aisles. I can spend hours just looking at things

My wife and I have shopped here plenty of times. We bought a brand new queen size mattress and couldn’t have been more pleased. It’s even more comfy than our other mattress. The store has great prices, wonderful customer service, and the best selection of new/used name brand clothing.
