My Sister’s Charities Thrift Store

I’ve been here a handful of times, twice on their half off Saturdays and I ALWAYS go home happy. Their items are conveniently priced by type of item: All dressed $ 8, all shirts $ 5, etc. and are separated by size. They also have mens clothing and some home items from their Attic store.
On 50% off Saturdays, dresses go to $ 4, shirts $ 2.50… and so on. It gets crazy in there! The store is tiny and FULL of stuff to begin with, add a bunch of deal hungry shoppers early on a Saturday morning and this place can get hectic and crowded fast. I would recommend getting there early for the best selection, however if you arrive before they open, you can expect to wait in line just to get in. That’s how BA this place is!
My biggest tip– do not shop here if you need to try everything on! Their «fitting room» is a storage closet with a couple of screens and curtains, and there is nowhere to hang your clothes. Plus you’ll stand in line forever because the tiny room accommodates like, 3 ½ normal sized people at a time. Just buy the $ 2 shirt and if it doesn’t fit when you get home, for Christ’s sake just donate it again! Proceeds benefit Charity.
Did I mention that it gets hectic and crowded? Expect to be (literally) pushed around. Bonus if you have a helmet and elbow pads, you might need them. Don’t go hungry. Bring your manners and your patience and stay positive: think about the deals! I always score brand name items at insane discounts: BCBG, J Crew, ASOS, Banana Republic, TOPSHOP, Antonio Melani for $ 4?! You cannot find a better deal than that anywhere!
The staff is amazing. I would go ape sh*t working there, but they are all so sweet and helpful, and I think some are even volunteers! Bless their hearts. Seriously say a little prayer for them right now, because they are the real MVP’s. Cashier’s are really quick, and they better be because there are only two of them for the whole store. The last time I was there, a lady went down the line of everyone waiting at the register and started removing all of the hangers from our purchases to save everyone time at checkout.
Last tip: bring cash! If you have cash and a smaller purchase (5 or less items) you can skip the main (LONG) line altogether and pay in cash to the side of the line.
If you don’t mind working a little for a good deal this is the place for you! If you have no patience, don’t care for good deals, skipped breakfast, are hungover, PMS-​ing, or in any other generally bad mood — maybe this is not the place for you…

I love My Sisters Closet and now they have a Thrift Store! Even better, all profits are donated to non-​profits in our community! I posted a picture of the list of where proceeds go.
I was on my way to Goodwill in search of some home items when i had recalled reading about My Sisters Charities Thrift Store in the local paper. I had been meaning to check it out. The place was clean and organized. It’s a small place so it wasn’t overwhelming or daunting to shop. I had to check the clothing items (not what i was there for but the shoes and dresses were calling me) found many name brand items. By the time i checked out i had 4 dresses, pair of shorts, earrings, and a pretty green ceramic vase all for less than $ 40.
This place has won my business. Sorry Goodwill, you’ve been replaced.
