J	Jessica Evans on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I've been going here for years. Great selection and moderately fair prices. Support the non-profit thrift stores! Don't go to corporate owned value village, go here!
E	Elisse Hagen on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I'm always able to find a treasure here! Friendly and helpful staff
D	David Thompson on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Two story thrift shop. It can get really busy but great store! Would go back again
E	Entisar McDonald on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Great staff. I would suggest putting the fact that although they close at 4pm, drop off for items is only until 2pm. That fact is in the website, but not so apparent. Would better serve those donating if it was more visible. Thanks
J	Joe on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Yep. It’s a thrift store. I didn’t visit upstairs because my arms were already too full. I bought a wicker ottoman for 34.99 and 5 plates for .99cents each. I didn’t realize until later that the ottoman was missing legs but that’s my fault for not noticing. Had I noticed I would not have paid so much for it. It definitely needs a few washes too. Prices seem high for very used and old stuff but there is a LOT of stuff to dig through if that’s your thing. They have a bit of everything too! Will def go back but will probably wear gloves.
R	Rick Anna on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Bought some things today and Beverly (English accent) was rude, unhelpful and difficult. She made our shopping experience completely miserable. Some people are probably solvers, Beverly is a problem creator.
B	Brad Brad on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Me and my wife went there today and faced some racism. We have been there a few times and never had this problem before. Today we were asked to leave my wife’s backpack purse behind the counter because some sketchy people come in and fill theirs up. I didn’t trust this worker with our valuables so I was going to bring it to the vehicle. As I walked away he made a point of telling me it’s not a “race thing” just sketchy people tend to stuff their backpacks while there. I am a fist nations male. My wife said this same worker came up to her and said it wasn’t a race thing to her too but she then pointed out there are white people walking around with big bags and purse backpacks. She didn’t raise her voice and walked away. We were both very upset but tried to shop but just couldn’t today. They did not deserve our money today. We never called it a race thing, he kept saying it’s not a race thing. It was a sketchy people thing. It was supper embarrassing and hurtful to have this security worker saying loudly to us “it’s not a race thing”
E	Em von Euw on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Best of the best! They take hygiene and personal space very seriously. The staff are always super friendly. The selection is unparalleled. Prices are fair. Change rooms no longer available. Daily tag deals, usually for 50% off. Bathrooms available. Be prepared to wait in line for a few minutes, because everybody loves this place!
