Cause For Paws Thrift Store

We like to hunt for treasure in thrift stores and Cause for Paws is one of our usual stops. We’ve found some pretty neat things here for our home. Always some sort of discount running based on tag color so be sure to check the board when you enter the store… they sometimes have a bonus discount if you say a certain phrase or do a little dance!
Best of all the money helps care for and provide adoption services for furry faced cuties, lol.
They have household goods, furniture, clothes, books, sporting goods, and much more in a well organized and clean location

Unfortunately a lot of the prices I saw were very high for a thrift shop. For example, a women’s t-​shirt from Kohls at $ 5.99. I’m pretty sure you can buy new on sale for close to that price. It’s a shame because the store’s cause seems very good. I enjoyed seeing the adoptable kitties they had in the store.

I like going in here but really rarely find anything. Their prices are high-​think set of used dishes priced at 28.00 or used hallmark ornaments at 4.99EACH! I normally have a kid with me and they dont have kids stuff except for a few stray toys once in awhile. I was going to get my DD a pair of USED store brand boots-​not winter, just like fake ugg tye, but they were 10 bucks for used generic boots. Too high for me for used kids shoes. She did find a few t shirts for a few dollars each, but some of their prices are just too high-​especially on household items.

This is a decent thrift store. Clothing is organized very well and they have a large amount of plus size clothing. Everything is individually priced, including clothes. Personally I was taken aback at some of the clothing prices. For example, they wanted $ 5 for an aerie t-​shirt covered in pilling, $ 8 for a h&m sweater, and $ 12 for an Old Navy dress. I know that the money is for a great cause but still I think these prices were a bit unreasonable for a charity thrift qshop. There is a pretty good selection of vinyl and books. They also carry more furniture than most thrift stores. Honesty the best part of the store was being able to see and play with the kittens that are up for adoption.

This is a huge thrift store where your purchase helps animals, and where you can also say hello to adorable kittens while you shop. I think that in itself is a great reason to go.
Oh, you wanted to know more? Well, okay. This place has everything from clothes and books to large appliances. Some of the prices are slightly high (we bought a large picture frame and it was $ 10), but not terribly unreasonable. And there were also five kittens in the middle of the shop, one of whom was obsessed with the shiny buttons on my coat. They all seemed more interested in playing with each other than in going home with any of the humans, but our cat would never forgive us for bringing a kitten home, so that’s probably for the best.

Oh my gosh! this place is huge and they have tons of great stuff… I browsed around for a good two hours and found some great deals! who needs to spend tons of money when you can find great deals at a great thrift store, for a great cause!
Staff was super friendly and helpful.

The store is very organized and neat but their prices are a bit high especially on the used electronics. Some the prices were pretty close to retail. I noticed that some clothes with tags still attached were overpriced too. I saw a Mossimo (it’s a Target Brand) dress for $ 13 today. The retail price on the tag was $ 24. I got turned off and left. Thrift stores are supposed to have deals that keep you coming back!

Cause for paws is a great place for a great cause. I have gotten a lot of items out of here and paid next to nothing. I got a hand painted oil painting out here for $ 20 took it to an art gallery to have it appraised turns out its a $ 300 painting. I got a bowling ball set with ball, bag, and shoes for $ 15 turns out a similar setup would have cost me near $ 100. You can find a great range of things at cause for paws and they are putting out new stuff everyday

Just moved to the area and found this place on my quest for awesome thrift shops! This was my first find so have nothing to compare it to but I found an awesome little side table to revamp! The pricing is just right and they have a good sized area for furniture and nick nacks, which is what I usually look for. Only negative was the overwhelming cat smell and hair on items because I’m a little allergic.

Lots of great items here for everyone! We’ve shopped here loads of times and everyone there is always super helpful and friendly. The only bad thing if say is with animals there sometimes the smell gets a bit overwhelming if they are short handed, but it’s hard to have stinky animals if people adopt them ;)

This place really reminds me of an expensive hipster store. It’s got good prices on everything and everything is well organized and hung neatly. There’s cool music playing and a very relaxed atmosphere. It’s definately a thrift store geared towards younger people. This place had a huge amount of furniture. I mean a MUCH larger selection than most places. Check it out!
Didn’t have what I needed specifically but I would come back in a heartbeat!

Great find. Google Maps pointed me in the wrong direction driving over, but I’m not going to ding Cause For Paws over Google Maps’ problem.
Clothes selection? Phenomenal. Lots of items with the tags still on, everything super-​clean and organized. Nice sporting goods selection and good on vinyl too, for the audiophiles out there!
Staff was just the right amount of helpful — friendly but not overbearing, and honest when I was trying to figure out if a short-​sleeved Ann Taylor sweater with the tags still on was right for me or not. Had a great conversation with the clerk checking me out — showing my phone with a picture of my cat on it got me a 15% discount. They normally have kitties in the store, but they found their forever homes yesterday, so we chatted about that, too.
Also, new specials — Monday’s Ladies’ Day, Tuesday’s Mens’ Day.
I will absolutely be back, after getting two pairs of pants and a skirt and spending less than $ 10 total. Feel like singing «Thrift Shop»!

A great find right outside of Downtown Raleigh! LOTS of clothes and some relatively trendy items (must be donations from NCSU or Meredith.). What I was most impressed with was the amount of goods which includes a decent amount of sporting goods, household goods, furniture, and LOTS of old board games! Went in expecting to see a whole bunch of pet supplies but unfortunately that was somewhat scarce. Prices are decent — shoes $ 5 – 10, clothing ~$ 4 – 8.
Does accept credit card!

Cause for Paws is a great thrift store. The staff is super rad and I even spied a huge pride flag hanging in the office area while I was shopping. Anyplace that loves gays and animals is gonna get my support. Today while wearing the skirt I got there the last time, I found myself hollering like Oprah Winfrey at a cool vintage school girl bag I found there. I mean like this: «Isn’t this FAAAABULLLOUSSSSSSS??»
This place is organized, friendly, and the prices are fair.

This is one of the best thrift stores in the Triangle to find clothing. Some of the clothes aren’t as cheap as GCF and Salvation Army, but that’s because a lot of items still have the tags on them. Everything is well organized. On top of it all, the money goes to a good cause. If you like thrift stores, this one is worth checking out at lest once a week.

I really like this place, I love what the $ goes toward, and I have found a few things in there that were very useful. On one occasion I found a really nice chair for my office, another time I found a vase from Tonala Mexico.
The workers in there are VERY nice !!!

Well organized thrift store that helps dogs and cats. It goes towards a great cause.
