I contribute significantly to this store. It is the cleanest, neatest, most orderly thrift store I have every seen. They always display items seasonally, and group the items in sets--items that naturally go together. What I do, is ring the door bell and donate my items--all quality and some expensive items, then I walk around to the front door and spend more. Animals of all kinds--wild and domestic--are my cause. This is a pleasant shopping experience and preferable to sorting through much that is truly junk--this store does not put this on the floor. Animals get the short end of the stick in our society--but beyond that, it is the nicest thrift store I have ever been in.

Been coming in here for a long time, it is sort of like an antique store because I have seen the same thing in here for years. The place is HUGE and has a great amount of things to look through in each department. Although neat and organized, the prices are RIDICULOUSLY HIGH!! There are no .25,.50 items everything is $1+ even small kids stuffed animals. Like WTF? Staff is very friendly each time we visit. I used to buy VHS tapes for $1 here but they are no longer needed. I wish they had better prices because I have seen so many things I would love to own here but am not willing to pay the price.

Love this shop. Visit to see what is new weekly. merchandise moves quickly. Furniture good quality. Tons of clothes and glassware and home decorations. I teach and have found great things in childrens corner. Shelves of hardback books too.They continually play a variety of music from the past! An entire area is for music alone. Very spacious with friendly staff. If you are setting up housekeeping you MUST shop there! You could easily set up a kitchen, fill your walls with art and find a couch, TV entertainment unit, etc. AND help the animals!

Ive donated to them before, but never actually went inside to see what its all about. Since its located in an otherwise completely bland strip mall, I figured I wasnt missing much. I wasnt surprised when I went in and the front area was so small (the higher end stuff, like jewelry) but when I went to the back portion I was stunned! SO MUCH STUFF!!! And everything is beautifully laid out and organized. I didnt find the prices all that high, and I love the fact that the proceeds help animals. This place is a keeper!!!

This is a terrible thrift store. Extremely expensive. The staff treats the donated items as if they had to pay for it out of pocket. The staff is rude, especially to kids as they yell at them for having the nerve to touch their donated, used toys. I realize the proceeds from this store go to help fund the animal shelter but at their prices Id rather buy the merchandise new and write a tax deductible donation directly to the shelter.

The store is MUCH larger than it looks from the outside and has a great selection of merchandise. But, I find much of it to be overpriced--particularly the clothing and assorted items for the home. I collect Portmerion china and there was one piece there--priced close to what I might pay new on sale. No thanks. I have donated items here and the staff seems nice to deal with.

I dont love this place. But its interesting and worth stopping in. When you walk in, youre overwhelmed by the sense that youre about to find something awesome. Then you walk out with a couple ok things after spending a whole hour rummaging because you dont wanna take a huge thrift shop "L." I was appalled that old-not "vintage" band T-shirts were selling for $10. Weird.

As other reviewers noted, prices are a bit higher than at other thrift shops. But the quality of the goods is excellent---when is the last time you saw clothes marked "Made in USA"? I got a wool dress-up/dress-down sleeveless dress for $15 (!) and a hand-knit wool sweater from Uruguay for $12. As for the prices---its a CHARITY, and the proceeds all go to help the animals.

All items priced below retail. Some new some used. All quality. Purcased some art frames, acrylic paints, oil paints, and two canvas for under 25 dollars. Any artist know thats a goo buy. Highly recommended to other needing new, used, antique, and fine furniture or collectibles.

Well organized, clean, immense thrift shop. Looks like a small shop front, but the rear area is cavernous and climate controlled.. Back room is divided into many specialty shops. Large Book and Music sections, and lots of Pottery, Kitchenware, and Glass.

Prices are much higher than the other thrift shops in the area and I see the same stuff over and over again. They used to have a wider selection of higher quality things and better prices, but not any more. However, the staff is always friendly.

Fantastic selection of books and movies for such an amazing price! The staff is super friendly and its very easy to navigate through. Plus, a large portion of their proceeds goes towards animals. Big plus in my book!

This thrift store is way overpriced. I tend to see the same items all the time - not much turnover since prices are so high. I prefer shopping at Life4Animals Thrift Shop in Gaithersburg...prices are so much better.

Surprisingly good! Ive never had luck with their clothes, but their other sections are amazing, especially the electronics (and, my favorite, the cleverly acronymed "museum of obsolete technology").

Surprisingly large store with a ton of second hand items. Clean and organized this is one of my favorite thrift stores, i just wish I lived closer. Go there and get a great deal

Ive been going here for more than 10 years and they are wonderful. I take my friends and they love it, too! It is the most beautiful thrift store in MC.

Bigger than it looks. The store expands in the rear of the building a lot. Some cool stuff inside. Mostly nicknacks less clothing which I like.

This place is huge and very well organized. There is a lot to look through but its pretty expensive for a thrift store.

The technology exhibit in the back of the store lets you get hands-on with high-tech of yesteryear.
