Value World

There would be 3 Value Worlds that I know of, one right here, a humongous one in Taylor and the newer of the 3 is over at Ann Arbor. This very one is the best of them all. The other 2 is usually a hit or miss, but for some reason, I usually find something to purchase here in this store every time I pay it a visit.
If you want clothes and gently used branded items, sometimes you get lucky here. Even new out of the box items can be found as well if you have timing and perseverance in your hand. I usually come here because of their book selections. They’re dirt cheap and are usually in pretty good condition. There are also house wares that are in gently used condition. So if you’ve recently just acquired a place and in need of some plates and glasses, this is the most cost effective way to do it. Some of the things are so nice and in awesome condition, I even boxed them up one time and gifted them at a house warming.
Whatever you can think of, you might be able to find it here. If you’re crafty, there’s unlimited potential to all of the things you can find here. It’s not the cleanest out of all the resale shops I’ve encountered. Although the sense of accomplishment you feel when you find a nice item is superb.
People love a bargain, and there’s no better bargain than here at Value World. This as far as I’m concerned is the best thrift shop you’ll find anywhere in Metro Detroit. Come through, you’ll never know what you’ll dig up.
You will never experience life by standing still.

This place is interesting, Ive found some great Tee’s here, by Drifter and Diesel for a couple bucks. I hardly ever find jeans but its worth a look, as I’ve found some great skinny’s made in the usa by Fallen, really great vintage blazers, Hugo Boss dress shoes, Ugg clogs, Ecco drivers, and even a brand new luggage! Btw, great find @ Jenee, I hope you still have that cape thingy? There are some great finds at this one, its always hit and mis tho. You just never kno. If you’re really interested in something and its marked too high, talk to Anna, she might work some magic for you. She’s normally very nice.

This store is not the cleanest and the ceiling even leaks when it rains. Some of their items can appear dirty but I think it’s because they have fallen on the dusty floor at one time or another. Some items are overpriced simply because the store noticed a name brand. However, there are some gems here but you have to commit to spending a couple of hours inside to find them. Be prepared to dig.
I have found cute outfits here (some brand new) but again, I spent time digging through all of the crap peppered in. I have also found some unique jewelry (real silver too), and a brand new paper shredder for just a few bucks. My best find was a unique cape looking thing from the 70’s. My bf spotted it and thought it was cool. Off the rack, I thought it was kind of ugly. He forced me to try it on and I fell in love. It was $ 13 which seemed high since it appeared older. It was so different than anything I had seen though so I bought it. It gets better!!! I took the cape jacket thingy to get dry cleaned. The dry cleaners offered to buy it for $ 150. Apparently, it was vintage couture and possibly a runway item from the 60’s/70’s and after it was professionally cleaned, it was in excellent condition. I kept it and couldn’t be happier.
All in all, I like this store. Yes, it has it’s downfalls and yes, there always seems to be very obnoxious children running about but if you can get past the crap, the goods inside are worth it. Oh, and they send out ½ off coupons to area residents every couple of months. Keep your eyes open for this magical coupon that comes with your junk mail. ½ off your total bill.
Final note, this is a great place to get dog blankets. We get new blankets for our dogs every couple months instead of filling our washer/​dryer with dog hair. They have an endless selection of quality and cheap blankies. Your pooches will thank you. :-)

This store has been there since I was a little girl. Lots of clothes, brick-​a-​brack, shoes, toys, etc.
I like shopping at thrift stores and realize they just are what they are. This one is a little stinky. I’ve stopped in to see what bargains I can get and have left simply because the line was waaaaaaay too long.
I think they have coupons in the News Herald offering half off your entire purchase.
Make sure to check out the purses. Those people only pull certain brands and will leave a $ 500.00 bag on the shelf and pull a $ 100 Coach bag.

Value World as it’s called now is a great place to bargain shop. Just be prepared to spend upwards of two hours finding decent clothing. I try to avoid going on the weekends and directly before Halloween as those are when it is busiest. Keep an eye out in the NewsHerald for the coupons they occasionally put out. All in all a great thrift store catering mainly to your clothing needs but you can also find bric-​à-​brac, kitchen utensils, dishes, books, and records on the cheap.
Pros: Cheap clothes, good selection for everyone, great for vintage finds
Cons: No dressing rooms, no returns, must spend a good amount of time searching for what you need, very busy on the weekends.

Don’t shop here on weekends unless you like rampant children a lot, that’s first and foremost.
This is a great place to buy Halloween costumes, back to school clothes or a formal dress on the cheap. There’s clothes for everyone here, whether you’re skinny, fat, tall or short… they’ve got it… somewhere.
This place is all about searching. Bring a friend, split up for a half hour then meet and see what goodies you both found!

This is where I get all of my $ 1.90 button downs yo! Thrift store that sells everything by gender then color. Two other locations that I frequent. Stay away from this one! It’s mine!
