I am sure that the money is going to a good cause, but come on! The stuff was way over priced for the quality. The place is a large junky looking building with the smell of dirty socks. Okay, for a good price and good quality, I can do that. The people were all friendly. I was greeted by every employee that walked by me and asked if I needed help. Lots of happy chitter-chatter. Good customer service. I looked the things and stuff room. Lots of things and stuff that I do not need. I found a dirty ottoman for $15! Ouch! And a dirty (okay, grungy) 80s couch for $300. Whoa! The clothes are plentiful. The clothes are one price per type. My fave, jeans, are always premiere dollar-o. I think $7. I did not find a single pair of cool, hip jeans for $7. not even close to cool and hip. Lots of the norm: Gap, Calvin Klein from the 80s, Old Navy, Mossimo, No Excuses. I did not even find Sears and JC Penneys level of jeans. Many were dirty, ripped in not so cool spots, a zipper was broken on one, food and body stains. I found a pair of Salvatore Farragamo shoes a super narrow for $30! Ouch! And a fake Gucci for $45! I walked out with only a couple of jeans on my charge card. A big disappointment. I LOVE a great thrift shop for a great cause with reasonable prices. Not here. The employees are nice enough, though.

I like this place. Ive been a few times and Im always able to find some great deals. Ive found lots of vintage shoes and accessories and even some small furniture pieces for under $5. The good things go fast, but its in a decent neighborhood and I always see Mercedes Benz parked in the lot. Always busy with old women shopping for random things. There is a lot of things to look through, but always worth it for me.

Excellent collection of Jewelry, and womens clothing. Mens clothing is decent and children selection is rather small. Great selection of glass wear, brass and silver! Standard collection of used furniture, lightly dinged but every now and then a beautiful piece with light use comes along for a great price! Staff is very friendly and not to mention daily sales!!!!

I used to love coming to Boysville to shop for treasures. The staff is always nice and the store is organized well, but I have stopped going as often because their prices are just getting too high - specifically the kitchenware. Even as a collector, I refuse to pay $30 for a vintage pyrex bowl that is really worth about $10. Please stop over pricing your Pyrex!

I used to shop here before. now i stopped because their prices are way too high. id rather shop at tjmax or ross for almost same peiczs as theirs but brand new things instead. my msg to them: stop raising prices, and remember its a thrift store. dont take too much advantage of poor customer people

Hands down, you need to visit. I found great original art pieces!!!! Much work to please the eyes here with staff being on top if that and giving a very nice set up of items. Much pride and thought goes into its appearance! We ran into director at Bill Millers where hr stopped to talk with us.

Best thrift store in SA. High end brands at amazing prices. Hit or miss like every thrift store. One downside is that if something isnt proceed then you have to wait a day to get it priced. Boo. But they have a punch card and a great selection of books and clothing. Obsessed with this place.

Very pricey for a thrift store, even non-nasty brand items seemed too high. It is laid out well, and very clean, though. I didnt find the workers particularly friendly or helpful. I wont put this on my regular thrift store route.

They have really clean the place up had Christmas in July and all the craft stuff that my daughter could ever want great prices in there forever and all the all the profits are donated to Boysville great place to find treasures

Easy to find. Polite service people. Clean. Donation drop off ends at 5. Store closes at 6. However if you ask nicely at the counter, they will let you drop off items small enough for the girls to shuffle to the back.

By far, my favorite place to shop. I have been going for over a year and I always find a great deal, I just love the crazy ceramics and copper jewelry they have.

One of the managers was so wonderful and gave me a good deal on magazines for my art students. I will definitely be back.

This is a "non-profit" thrift store - with very high prices!! Wont be going there to do my "thrift" shopping!

Lots of good stuff. Well laid out, great prices, no nonsense. Almost feels like home, or a library, at least.

A great thrift store with reasonable prices and regular used goods from the 70s and 80s.
