The first time I came to this thrift store it was crowded and everything was pretty much picked over. Also, I was surprised at how they price their items...how can the average thrift shopper afford $13 shoes when they might as well go to Ross, Marshalls, or Target and buy them BRAND NEW for the same cost? The only way I would shell out $13 for used shoes if they were a high end brand such as Gucci or Versace which cost hundreds of dollars. As far as clothes, they too were overpriced ranging from $6-26 for also used, average name brand clothes that again, I may as well go to Ross, Forever21, or Nordstrom Rack for the same cost, brand new. Sometimes they even sold clothes at the same price or even higher as if they were brand new such as a used Forever21 shirt they wanted $8 for! Absolutely Ridiculous!!! They also sell used fake bags like Gucci, Chanel, and Dooney & Bourke, at ridiculously high prices like $20 for a fake Chanel purse. Poor things, probably think they were real--I feel sorry for the shopper who buys them thinking that it is real. Maybe if Im in town during a not so busy time for them, i will consider looking inside for their books or other knick knacks which seemed like they were fairly priced. However, I really prefer my secret little local small thrift store in which I am always able to find high end items for ridiculously cheap prices--and it is NEVER crowded. =)

ive been going here for years and i use to enjoy going and finding deals...i cant afford new shoes toys and clothes for my kids and myself so i go to the thrift store. Before i could find something decent for a reasonable price but now everything is 10, 15, even 20 dollars and more!..i dont understand its a comunnity thrift store everything is donated!!! i go to buy my kids stuff that i other wise cant afford brand new for less but how is that now i cant even afford used items from a thrift store....this is sad i wanted to buy shoes for my daughter but i couldnt afford them i asked to get it marked down and an employeein the back did it but when i went to pay they didnt want to let me pay less...the cashier was very mean and rude...and the manager and a couple other employees were also rude to me saying that 20 dollars is not a lot but i couldnt afford it and just wanted nice shoes for my daughter after a lot of mean comments i left with no shoes and a sad little girl...overall i would have to say this thrift store is over priced and employess inlcuding the manager should learn some manners and get hearts.

Ive been going to your store for near 3 years, and I really like the "stuff" you have for every need, but today for the first time I have this cashier taking care of me, which was really rude when I ask her about an item that did not had a price, and when she was still attending me, she started talking to this other cashier when I was asking her something. When I was finished paying for my 10 articles, I called aside the manager of the store, and I advise him that he should have some classes about attitude against customers, he was really sarcastic refering to with his "poor" english. I would appreciated if somebody does something about it. I understand that this is a store where you find "bargains", but still is a store where customers deserve some respect. That for sure wont stop me from continue going to your store. Thank for your attention to this. Mr. R

1 issue..... they have two yes 2 colors for blue tags.... one is royal blue and the other is sea foam green... BUt that is the problem.... EVERTHING BUT BLUE TAGS ARE HALF OFF TODAY said over the P.A. system... You see the obvious royal blue tag and every other color... you head to the register to purchase.... and Ya... sorry sir we have two kinds of blue tags... Question? Why not say over the P.A. system... ALL BLUE AND BLUEISH KIND OF TAGS EVEN SEA FOAM GREEN TAGS ARE REGULAR PRICE... This is my suggestion for this otherwise large thrift store.

Greatest Thrift Store find ever! Pool things from contracted cities to only one place! Great purses, must be 300! All day long new things are brought into the large room.Great jewelry, great clothing. Huge selection of great prices for childrens clothes. Each day two colored tickets get 50% off. After two weeks an expensive item will be half off. Large parking lot. Friendly people. Clean environment. Nice selection of furniture. Wonderful staff!

I drive over an hour to get my thrift store fix here. Huge, well organized by item and color, and rock-bottom prices. (Got perfect-condition London Fog coat for about $6, super cute current style dresses for about the same). Also tons of shoes and hats. NO dressing rooms, and if you wear a swimsuit top theyll tell you to put on a real top, so be prepared. And bring lots of cash; its all they take, and youll find more goodies than you think.

High prices on supposedly designer brands. Just to name a few, Banana Republic, Kenneth Cole & Tommy Hilfiger are not designer brands. Remember, its a thrift store, community at that. Although not all the items are fake, I cant believe they sell the fake items at the same price as the real designer items. They shouldnt even be selling the fake stuff. They are pretty simple to authenticate.

I absolutely adore this place. Ive scored true gems here, to name a few a vintage Corey Lynn Calter babydoll dress or a pair of patchworked True Religions. Community Thrift is well-run, clean, and moderately priced. Items range - sometimes the pricers realize they have a hot item and mark it up a bit, but theres always the hope that the ticket is one of the two colors 1/2 off that day.
