Laura’s House ReSale Store

Wonderful store with a great selection of used clothing, furniture, and more. The volunteer staff are always very friendly, and Laura’s House is a fantastic organization. There’s also a second location in San Juan that’s worth a visit as well, and I couldn’t recommend either of these locations more.

I truly appreciate the intentions that go into this store but their limited drop off hours on the weekends make it difficult to drop off donations.

While I did not find any designer clothes like the other reviews mentioned, I purchased a beautiful wrought iron coffee table as well as a huge glass décor piece here for a very fair price that I am very much in love with!
I love that ALL proceeds to go charity, you can shop and walk away having done something to help the world become a better place, love that!
Service here is exceptional, you feel very welcome.
Tons of easy parking out front, they wrapped my glass well to make it home easily, very much appreciated.
Worth coming back when I am in the area again, you never know what you will find!

One of my favorite resale stores. I can spend hours in here contently browsing. The atmosphere is great, service is super welcoming & friendly, the layout is small & simple, and the hours are good. Nice fitting rooms and the shoe selection is always good; I often try on so many items while shopping here. They also sell jewelry, some of which is beautifully handmade, and so affordable! I’m so lucky to live so close to this shop because it’s so dear to me. Laura’s House helps so many women and children in need and provides awareness & reliable resources for domestic violence survivors. It’s truly an amazing organization and you can tell the volunteers truly care about this cause & the lives they support. Even their resale stores show it. I highly recommend visiting and getting involved!

Laura’s House is such an amazing organization.
I recently had the pleasure of volunteering for an event through them, and was able to really learn a lot more about what they do, what they offer, etc. Amazing.
I have made a few clothing donations to this store, and the staff is always very friendly. I just realized this past weekend there is a door around back where you can drop items off, instead of carrying them through the store.
Store Hours: (I believe the donation hours are the same)
Monday: 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.
Tuesday: 10 a.m. to 8 p.m.
Wednesday: 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.
Thursday: 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.
Friday: 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.
Saturday: 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.
Sunday: 12 p.m. to 5 p.m.
This is from their website:
«Laura’s House Resale Stores supports the Emergency Shelter, Transitional Housing, and Counseling and Resource Programs of Laura’s House through the resale of high-​quality donated merchandise. Your donations will help to fund the powerful programs offered by Laura’s House in turn helping to end the cycle of violence for many individuals, families, and children affected by domestic violence.»
Again, I truly love what this organization does, and I will continue to support them in any way I can.

I have shopped at Laura’s House since it has been open. I love it. The merchandise is. very high quality. I don’t think there has been a time where I haven’t found a treasure. The store in San Juan is awesome! The gals that work at the stores are very helpful and
Nice to see happy volunteers! Love it check it out!

I LOVE checking out the clothes they have there. I love there fair prices & I think there should be stores like this close by Lake Forest-​Laguna Niguel-​Aliso Viejo area where I’m from.

Great resale store. I donate my clothes to this store because it’s for a very good cause.

Reasonable prices, with trendy and unique pieces. The staff is very helpful and the clothes good quality, it’s definitely alot cleaner than other thrift stores I’ve been too.
Sometimes the clothes are a bit dated, but it’s not difficult to find something cute.

Best Resale Store in the OC that supports a worthy cause! Wonderful staff and great selection of merchandise! I always find a fabulous piece to add to my wardrobe!

I love this resale store. The staff and volunteers are always friendly and helpful. They have a fabulous selection of great items. Cute clothes for men, women, and children. It is an enjoyable shopping experience every time I go. This is one of my favorite resale stores and better yet it is for such a great cause! All of the proceeds go to help women and children who are victims of domestic violence, they keep such a wonderful program going. Great place to donate and shop!

I went in here when I had some extra time before work. The clothes didn’t seem like anything I’d wear for someone my age. I like what cause they’re supporting, though. Their prices seemed pretty fair.
I remember it was pretty crowded but the lighting seemed a bit dim? I’ll probably come back in a few months and see if their selection has changed. Thrifting takes some time to find good stuff and I didn’t have much time to dig through the racks the first time around!

I love this store. A. It’s an amazing cause and I love knowing my purchases here help others B. There are always great finds here. I always end up leaving with something. C. The staff is incredibly friendly and warm without being pushy.
This is definitely the type of store you want to keep coming back to, to see new stock and new great finds. I bought a Dolce & Gabbana dress for $ 28. 7 FAM jeans for $ 14. A vintage 70’s sweater for $ 8. I mean, come on! How can you NOT love a place like that?! It is one of those stores though that on one occasion you might find a ton of stuff, and the next you might not find anything other than a bracelet or a book. Either way, it’s a fun place to shop.

Yay! They finally changed the name back to Laura’s House Resale Store! I always come away with at least two cute finds. Yesterday’s haul included a Chico’s blouse for $ 6 and a Ralph Lauren lamb’s wool beret for $ 4. It’s a small store, no furniture, but good prices on quality merchandise. Plus, you know you’re helping a cause.

Very friendly and welcoming on entry. Felt like they were willing to help, not a very large selection on men’s clothing but still enjoyed the environment and friendliness

This place is awesome for used clothing. True thrift store with thrift store prices. Seems like it would be a «hit or miss» place.
Arden B dress= $ 8
Ann Taylor top= 9
Brand new forever 21 blazer = 8
Banana republic cardigan = 10
Express dress= 8
Friendly staff! Was awesome to walk away with that many items for super cheap! I will defiantly be back! It’s for a good cause too! Makes it even better!

Best Thrift shop/​resale store ever! I found this place while on vacation. From the moment you walk in the door you feel like you could be in a high end clothing store that is until you see the price tags. What? $ 6.00 for a pair of jeans that would easily have cost me over $ 150? I don’t know what’s up with that but I LOVE it! I spent about an hour and a half in the store and walked away with 5 pairs of pants for the total of about $ 32.00 including tax. Perhaps its good I don’t live nearby because this store would be dangerous.

I actually visit this store a couple times a week, they always have new things and most. of them are pretty high end. sure, theres a couple things that you would
your average thrift store but then again they have juicy, burberry, michael kors and many vintage coture items. to the people on here who reviewed saying that they wouldnt pay 9dollars for a dress. do you know where the proceeds to this store go? do you now what youre money is doing when you make a purchase? if you dont understand how things work then, yes, please go back to your salvation army or goodwill where you WILL pay more. The local thrifters know how corporate and overpriced both of those stores have become over the. past 15 years. (yes weve been shopping since the old movie theaters and discount records were here).
Lauras house is the best resale store in orange county, hands down. And no, i dont work here :)

A thrift store with actual thrift store prices!
Bought two jeans at $ 4 each and a pair of shorts for only $ 1! Cute stuff too! High end denim is only around $ 20!
Super clean, no funky, mothball/​dirt smell! Friendly staff :)
Definitely can’t wait to come back!

Organized– check
Good Selection– check
Pleasant enviornment– check
Reasonable pricing– check check!
And to top it off the proceeds benefit a great charitable cause helping battered women. How can you not be a fan? Also, a little bird told me that well-​to-​do women from the coastal communities often donate here, which means lots of designer clothing! Woohoo!
I don’t frequent Lakeforest often, but I think I now have a reason for semi-​regular visits!
