I was amazed how many people were outside of this place on a weekday so I stepped in. They had some sort of half off sale for their clothing items. I found some pretty nice stuff in here, much of it brand new, even. There was a flat screen TV for $ 150. If I really needed one I probably would have picked it up. There are a lot of nice elderly women working as employees in the store. They are helpful and very friendly. I would have to agree with the other reviewer that the items in this store are overpriced. They try to pawn small sales off such as «tax-free» weekend. I feel that this place is very much ran like a business and these ladies have their act together. You feel a bit pressured to pay full price for the items even though I would usually think that negotiating is part of the experience for these types of stores. You can put your name on a mailing list for their new sales. I think this is a good idea as it is less expensive than estates sales, although still not the best of prices for resold items, and you don’t have to drive to a new location each time. I probably won’t be back much but the items I did get(a paintball gun and some leather folders) were decently priced although more expensive than the chain thrift stores.

Giving this 2 stars pains me so. It is lovely that all these wonderful ladies donate their time to this charity thrift store. They give the money to various charities around town. This is awesome and I commend them. Unfortunately, their inventory is well… not cool. The items are nicely arranged, but the items were super overpriced. I saw a piece of art pottery priced $ 175. The price of that piece should be $ 65, tops. Even at a real antique store. There was a few other antique-ish items that were priced way out of line. This is my side business, so I know values of stuff. Even the old household junk was over-priced. I really wanted to like this place… I just didn’t see one thing I wanted to buy.
