Items are over priced for a thrift store. Ive actually found items for cheaper at a regular store than this one. And there is no return at all, if you buy something for $50 and it breaks in two days, too bad, youre stuck. There are absolutely no returns at all. That kind of risk would be okay if you were saving 80-90% off retail, but here youre barely saving 15-30% off what youll pay for it online in brand new condition with warranty and return privilege. I do like the fact that the purchase supports local community and people in need, but their pricing is just not conducive for that model to be sustainable. Their items would move better if they were priced more aggressively. This store is for people who have no bargain hunting skills, they assume that since it is a thrift store theyre getting a good deal. Not the case here, you can pay almost as much and get a brand new item from a reputable store such as Macys or Amazon backed by good customer service, in case something goes wrong.

I must say I dont understand the good reviews of this place. The prices were horrendous. $20 for a used Nerf gun? $18 dollars for a new sleeping bag with a broken zipper? There also seemed to be a lot of new product (like returns to retail stores that they then couldnt sell) that cost just as much as brand new. I was so excited to discover this place (I knew it previously as Brand Name Deals) and Ive never been so disappointed by a thrift store. Im giving 2 stars because I managed to find a gem or two and one of the employees was really nice.

So.... The prices here are are a little more than one would expect. It appears that they get store returns from big box stores. Im not 100%sure though. Prices are cheaper than the store, but not quite thrift store prices. Its a pretty big store. Every day has a different color price tag that has a discount. Check the item before you purchase, to make sure It works. Great parking lot, lots of available parking.

Prices were reasonable and I like that they have weekly and monthly colored tags that are on sale. I did purchase an item I wasnt able to examine closely in store and later found it was very deteriorated. There is a sign that states all items are "sold as is", so make sure to do a thorough examination!

I read reviews on here with other people saying this store is overpriced for a thrift store. I decided to still check it out because all of the salvation armys Ive been to are great . But they were right way too over priced they had a USED old Kerig coffee machine for $80!

One of the better kept Salvation Army Stores I have experienced. Watch the color tag sales. They have deals on kids clothes and toys every Tuesday at this time as well. Test/inspect any items before buying, especially the ones that plug in.

The selection was good; I just only visit the SA as a last resort because of their shady charity donation practices.

They are asking almost retail prices for often damaged items.
