San Diego Rescue Mission Thrift Store – North Park

This place has become quite expensive. $ 5.50 for a pair of little girls pants. I pay that much for a pair of pants for myself (mom) @ The Goodwill. Other things were WAY WAY over priced.

Pretty good thrift store. Like all other thrift stores this one is hit or miss. The first time I came in, I didn’t find anything of interest, but yesterday I scored some ice cube trays, a tea pot and one of those little plastic silverware holders for 5 bucks, which you really can’t beat. They have a pretty good selection of furniture, clothes, kitchen stuff and other random finds. The cashier was super friendly and did not seem to get impatient as my husband and I looked through countless behind the counter items. All around, a great place that I’ll be returning to soon.

Great thrift store, You need to come and check them out! They have all kind of good stuff, electronics, household, furniture, pictures and frames, movies, lots of clothing and shoes at great prices. Staff was nice, I will be comming back.

Ughhh how I wish this place was closer to home! This place was the best place I could have stumbled upon when wanting to go thrifting. It is conveniently located across the street from the Kobey Swap Meet (Fri-​Sun), so if you don’t feel fulfilled with your swap shop trip, stop by here! They have colored tag/​barb sales priced at 25%-75% off already dirt cheap prices and like today, a 40% storewide sale on everything regular price. Their knick-​knacks section is full of brand new stationery sets, brand new party favors, and even brand new Starbucks retail products for less than $ 2 regular price! Even the furniture is priced somewhat cheaper than what you would find at Salvation Army (and obviously Goodwill at that).
Needless to say, I think this place is a jewel! I am definitely coming back here whenever I am in the area. There is also an awesome, big Salvation Army just down the road (would be #1 on my Rosecrans thrift hop) as well as Goodwill (would go here last, as this is the priciest you’ll get).

Neatly organized Thrift Shop. Actually looks like a store, and not a trash bin. They had a lot of furniture pieces the day I stopped in. I’ll be back to check out the rest of their Record collection, as I was in a hurry when I came in.

I found some good bargains here, and the store was well organized and clean. I’ll definitely be back when I’m in the area!

Came in on Friday and found some really cool items. I love going thrifting here even if I do not buy anything. I like this place and the workers are nice. If you come here their parking is located in the back.

They won’t sell anything without a tag. Paperback books were $.75 which is a great deal, esp if you’re visiting from out of town and expecting a 36 hour Amtrak ride home. Other than that, it was a mediocre thrift experience.

A thrift store is a thrift store thats a thrift store. I got a few awesome scores here (bowtie, file organizer). Like any thrift store, wait, return, and get lucky. A little smaller and dingier than some thrift stores (like goodwill and downtown salvation) but bigger than the ones that keep going out of business.
Cute place, smells like thrift, and hipsters will find some vintage crap to buy for 5 bucks.
Do it!

San Diego Resue Mission Thrift store is clean and unusually organized. A fair variety of everything. Prices seemed decent. I didn’t see anything I liked when I went in, but I will be back!

We wandered in here this weekend during a morning bike ride to get out of the heat for a few minutes and I’m glad we did. I really enjoyed browsing the store. There were several people working for floor getting items in order and the place was pretty well organized. They have a lot of space which means the stuff is well spread out. I never felt claustrophobic or over stimulated like I sometimes can in places like this.
My husband found a few books to put in his classroom and I found a cute bud vase I liked.
The prices seemed reasonable and they had a nice glass wear section that I’d like to come back and check out often.

I like the kind of thrift store where everything’s crazy-​cheap and you wade through piles of stuff for a gem or two. Or for materials you’re unafraid to use in crafting and wardrobe refashioning.
I USED to claim this store as my favorite; they often had 7 for $ 5 clothing racks (and 5 for $ 1 children’s clothes!), plus a bargain basement with insanely cheap dishes and linens and things.
They’re currently under renovation, and have pared their collection down to their finer things. Which makes it a great store if you’re looking for a place that’s done much of the culling for you. But I miss my bargains.
That said… there’s a NEW Rescue Mission Thrift location further east on University that’s even cheaper than the former best bargains at this place! It’s cash only and only open a few hours – M-​F, 10 – 3:30, presently – but the deals are fabulous.

I’ve never found anything there that I liked or that I could use. Most of the items seem pretty run-​of-​the-​mill, even for thrift.
The downstairs area is post-​apocalyptic (and so is the carpeting throughout the store).
The location is great, though. I just wish they had better quality stuff.

Perhaps the best thrift store in North Park?! I’d say so! This place is pretty big– loaded with all the thrifty finds you’re looking for.
This place is especially great for COSTUMES!
Dressin for a Buffet Concert (Hawaiian shirts & grass skirts)= check!
A white trash party = check
80s gear = check.
They also have heaps of furniture at super reasonable prices and a bunch of ‘random’ jems sprinkled throughout the store.
Rescue Mission Thrift in North Park has never let me down :)
P. s. look out for the «freebie» box up front to accessorize any costume!

I can’t explain why, but I just love this place. I don’t come here for the clothes or even for the furniture… just to check out all the housewares the knick-​knacks they have downstairs. Random glass vases? A huge selection of baskets for any variety of uses? Check! I love digging through their collection of random dishware– I picked up a set of five cute blue dessert plates for a buck! And right before Christmas I picked up a whole bunch of incredibly inexpensive and cute Christmas cards too. Take that, Hallmark!
This place is a good size too– not too overwhelming, but just big enough to browse in a good half hour to hour.

For some reason, this thrift store always carries really nice furniture, which would be great but it’s really expensive. Skip furniture shopping and head right back to the racks of $ 1 clothing.
Also, make sure to make your way to the very back where all the paintings are. You won’t find anything you’d want to hang on your walls, but you will find some great deals on some great frames.
