Hospice Center Thrift Store

I had a great experience here. They had a great selection of home décor items. The people that helped me were really kind. The prices were super cheap and a really great value on hand made items. Highly recommend for home decorations

I wrote a scathing review after visiting this thrift store twice. Then I thought, «If I weren’t being righteous and indignant, what would I be?»
So I went back a third time with a smile on my face and genuine kindness in my demeanor. No, the store attendants didn’t greet anybody or show any general signs of care that customers were there, however, they didn’t scoff or growl either. Knowing there would be indifference going in, I decided to greet them with a «Hi, how are you? Beautiful day out, eh?» To which, they happily engaged and it was all good from there. They answered my questions and were very helpful.
Yes, the prices are outrageous, but I was able to find a $ 1 paper hole punch and decks of playing cards for $.25. The book prices didn’t make me faint but were higher as compared to other thrift stores (after the 50% is taken off.) When looking for books, I always have Amazon (used books) up on my phone so I can compare prices. A book I was looking to buy on April 26, 2016 was listed at $.01 (a penny) on Amazon. After shipping and handling it would come to $ 4. The same book was priced at $ 10 on their shelves. Pretty ridiculous. When I asked the cashier about the price of the book, she defended it saying the two women who do pricing should be comparing prices online and they probably did with this book.
The problem is, once people laugh at the insanity going on here, it becomes a joke and word spreads. Whenever I bump into another thrift enthusiast who knows the Santa Fe circuit, it doesn’t take long before the Hospice Center comes up. Eye rolling and venting soon follow. I, personally, always steer people clear of this store because of the overpricing and I wonder how many people have completely written it off? How many customers don’t even bother stopping by anymore?
Even so, when I do stop by, what if I perceived the women working at Hospice Center as seriously dedicated and faithful to their job, rather than uncaring, grumpy, and out-​of-​touch with second hand reality? What if I knew going in everything is overpriced and to not get my heart set on anything?
Seriously though, the kitchen appliances and items here are horribly, horribly overpriced. Go to Kitchenality on Siler if you’d like a little bit more reasonability in kitchen stuff.

An intimidating and quiet environment where you kind of always feel like you’re doing something wrong. One man was told sternly to get off his phone shortly after he answered it. When he was telling the person he would call them back he was again reminded with a, «Sir.» I was aware that the prices would be a little bit higher but was shocked by what I saw. A used H&M dress for $ 60? That couldn’t have cost more than $ 40 brand new. They also had a sign outside saying that they were doing 70% off framed art and 50% off everything else. and then down below in small writing it said «no discount unless marked» or something like that. I didn’t see ONE discounted item inside. This place is sooo not worth the time. It’s a shame.

Insanely overpriced. The manager who prices things is out of touch with what things are worth. Too bad because it is the Hospice organization that suffers. Time to evaluate your management perhaps?

Insanely overpriced. Many items are selling for well over new price, including the Walmart special cardboard frame that normally sells for $ 1, now only $ 12 at the Hospice!

I’m addicted to thrift shopping. Almost all of my wardrobe and home décor is my great effort to save money and still look amazing. This thrift store has some great stuff but I’ve never bought anything because it’s way too expensive. Sad. I understand it’s Santa Fe but these prices are not worth it.

Great little thrift shop!
Lots of everything.
High quality merchandise with very affordable prices. Yesterday they were having a sale on top of the already low prices.
Some cute vintage items mixed in.
Visiting from out of town, I went to easily 10 thrift/​consignment/​vintage stores in Santa Fe yesterday and this was my favorite.
ALSO: just behind this shop (on Baca) is a fun little coffee house and a really fantastic little independent bookstore called Op.Cit. Books.

Nice little charity thrift store in a good location, just a few miles out Cerrilos rd. from the Plaza. I am a tourist who goes to Santa Fe abt twice a yr. and I always stop in here. Good quality clean clothes. For example I have gotten nice knit Eileen Fisher pants for $ 8 here; they would have sold for abt $ 150 originally. Small collectibles area and small case of jewelry. Bric a brac and framed prints and baskets in a small area as you come in the door. small but good shoe area w/​boots also. Mostly womens clothing. Friendly and low key staff volunteers. Door faces back of small center it is in– park in back.
