My family and I have been members of Saints Peter & Paul Church for 20+ years myself and my sister attended school here. My late aunt Marie Hammer donated a lot of money to the church in the past several years and attended church daily until she died. My father USED to shop and donate to the thrift store frequently. My father also suffered from a brain aneurysm and two subsequent strokes 2 years ago, when that happen a check bounced that he used at the thrift store because he was intensive care for many months. After he recovered he paid the fine he explained what happened and they allowed him to write checks here again. My father just told me that he was HARASSED by a police officer named John who hangs around there. My father was leaving the store and the lady told him he was on the no check writing list, he said that was a mistake but that he would come back tomorrow to pay for the items anyway. So while my father was walking back to the car to bring the box of donated items he had purchased with a good check back into the store. This police officer named John followed him repeatedly said let me help you carry those items back into the store. By the third time my father said no thank you I dont need your help to a complete stranger who was following him to his car. The off duty police officer John still following my father pulls out his badge and says im going to help you carry those items. My father ignores him as he has not done anything wrong and goes to open the driver side door and the police officer goes to put his hand on his hip like his is going for his weapon. The officer then tries to small talk with him and follows my father while he is carrying the box back into the store. So my father proceeded to rip up his check and said that he will still come back the next morning to pay for the items in cash. They write his name on the box set it aside. The next morning on top of being HARASSED at a faith based charity store they put the items that he had in the box with his name on it away!!!! Talk about Christmas spirit! I pray for everyone who "volunteers and bullies" innocent people at the Sts Peter & Paul Thrift Store. Just sad and disappointed.

This place is HORRIBLE for non whites !!! Yes you read that right. Race is still an issue in New Braunfels Texas. Not only were we NOT greeted when we walked into the place (that was NOT busy) we were followed around the store. BUT the white couple who walked in behind us were greeted very nicely. An elderly Hispanic man was followed as was EVERY HISPANIC in the place. IF YOU ARE OF COLOR DO NOT GO INTO THIS STORE OF HATE !!!!! These are jesus people ??? This place is a joke !!! The volunteers are old prunes who think its the 30s and do not have to be nice. I was followed. I am INSULTED !!! I was dressed office casual. My HISPANIC husband was office casual we drive a friggin 2015 MERCEDES and these old bats followed us ??? Oh honey believe me aint nothing in that place worth stealing. All over priced junk. And if the old man needed a pair of shoes give him the dang shoes !!! Follow him around like hes a criminal. You all should be ashamed of yourselves !!!!! One of the old bags at the desk was talking to another customer who mentioned a lady from Canyon Lake living in her diaper community. The old bag at the desk had a fit because "canyon lake" people were in her facility. Yo, granny stinky butt get a grip !!!!! By the time we walked the store I had 3 of em on our tail. Granted it became a game at one point called jack with the yentas as I could move faster than they could BUT WE WILL NEVER go into that hole of hate ever again. Its so nice to know that good god fearing church people know how to be christ like in their daily activities. NOT !!!!! Over priced Hateful Not friendly Raciest Horrible Nasty Disgusting they ALL need sensitivity training !!! they ALL need customer service training !!! they ALL need a reminder of why the store is there, what the mission of the store is and how to friggin behave !!!!! What a nightmare !!!!! 0 stars !!!!!

When my daughter wanted a little stuffed animal, it didnt have a price tag, the old hags that work there told her they couldnt sell it without a price tag. My wife made an offer and they refused. This made no sense at all. On top of that, they made my little girl cry. Who does that?? They could learn some Christian love and compassion and maybe grow a brain cell or 2.

This re sale store has a large selection of items - clothing, books, knick knacks, toys, etc. Everything is well organized and grouped together. The prices are higher than a regular thrift shop, so its best to shop the sales when they have them. They also only accept cash and checks. Volunteers are friendly.

We have been visiting St. PETER, ST. PAUL Thrift Store for about 10 years. EVERY TIME we have found treasures and the people working there are always nice. We look forward to driving 3 hours to shop and visit New Braunfels.

Honestly this place is a hit-or-miss. sometimes youll find great Treasures other times youll find squat, but overall I like the place. The staff is always friendly and its clean with the restroom accessible.

Great place with friendly faces. I came all the way from Austin cause the price was so good, wide variety of "stuff". I will be a repeat customer.
