Animal Humane – Thrift Shop

Way over priced. Sure it’s for a good cause, but seriously people you get this stuff for free. The prices are close to what you would pay at a retail store for new items. The store was cluttered and hard to navigate. They need to clear some stuff out and put realistic prices on their USED stuff.

This will be a shop in my regular rotation. The items were higher quality than other thrift stores, the prices were decent on most of the items, and there were quite a few unique items.
Unlike most thrift stores, I did not think their furniture section look like a bunch of stuff that needs to be thrown away. They had at white (!) upholstery couch on display that actually looked clean enough that I wouldn’t be embarrassed to take it home. Unfortunately, that same couch was priced $ 200. I noticed too-​high prices on some other furniture, as well. It would definitely be Worth finding out if they have a furniture sale day if you are shopping for furniture.

I donated a small bag of clothes today. By mistake I left two brand new dresses in the bag that I had just bought. I went back not even 20 minutes later and they could not find the bag I offered to help look but they would not let me. I think they set them aside for themselves. I went out of my way to donate to them just to be ripped off. I really wanted to help the animals but will have to find another animal charity to support. This will be the last time I ever shop there or donate. There prices seemed pretty high for what they were selling.

Row, row, row your truck, up the thrift store row. Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily, life is good for sho’.
Hey, if you’re gonna get thrifty, why not support our furry friends while you’re at it? I love this place. I bought a terrific coffee table here, ten bucks, and I’ve made about ten almost-​buys. You know what I’m talking about? «Yeah, I definitely want these dinner plates. Love these. Except for… Well, okay, I don’t love ‘em. But they’re… almost perfect. I’m buying ‘em. I’m… Wait. I should come back. But maybe they won’t be here when I get back. They’re only six bucks. Six bucks, DUDE, buy ‘em already. But I’m not… Well, okay, just wait. Wait. Hold off. Come back tomorrow.»
It’s a bigger space, but certainly not huge, big enough to feature some solid couches, tables and other furniture, but nothing extensive. Interesting, somewhat overpriced art. Good clothes, nothing special, mainly for the ladies and kids. Shelves of knickknacks, with some good stuff for your four-​legged besties, like floor cushions. Daily discounts on colored tags, so pop ‘em. A really solid option when you only got twenty dollars in your pocket.

I found a Big Boy coin bank from the 60s for $ 25 here. WHAT!!! Yeah, I pretty much had to buy it. This street is loaded with thrift stores. I bookmarked this one the day before when I was just aimlessly driving around Albuquerque. It caught my attention that it’s for a good cause. So, I came back and bought something.
Nice furniture, housewares and whatnots but, limited on the clothing.

This is an amazing thrift store! Don’t shop at thrift town or any of the other places on Menaul. It’s a very big thrift store and the prices are exceptional. When I was there all shoes were on sale for $ 2.50 from $ 5! Also purple and peach tags I sale 50% off. What a steal! Very nice modern clothes, furniture, and misc. I think the stuff here is of nicer quality because people are donating nicer stuff here for a cause. But the prices are still super cheap! Go here! It’s amazing!
