Best Thrift store in Canada

A	Arturas Visockas on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Its not the first time I come to this store and buy 10-20 books. This time the cashier asian lady was so mean when I asked for any discount, she said all prices are very good and no other discounts possible. I know paying for a book 2-5 dollars is not much. But its not a thrift store pricing. When you spend 30-40cad each time, you expect at least something. I give 2 stars because book selection is not bad.
W	Walt65 on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ We like this store and visit it regularly when shopping on Hastings Street. Prices are generally fair, lots of books that are well organized and a good kitchen section. Plus there's great music playing at a just-audible volume and friendly volunteers. And finally, it's helping VGH and UBC hospitals so it's a great cause. Glad we have this place in our community.
T	Tony W on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ First time coming by, I thought it was a decent store to look for stuff, similar to that of salvation army and spca thrift stores. But for the VGH. Lots of parking at the back, there is also a lot of places you can choose to goto eat, Mexican, Thai, vietnamese, pizza, all along hastings.
L	Linds B on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I both donate and shop here frequently. As a customer, the prices are extremely fair for the quality of the merchandise (which often isn't the case elsewhere; you get over-charged for merchandise that's broken or full of holes). As a donator, I can appreciate that the items will be priced fairly, and not be intended to rip off the community for dubious for-profit intentions. Better still, are the management and volunteers who work here (side note: there is often great, eclectic music playing in the store). In the somewhat short time that this store has been here, it has developed a loyal customer base including folks like myself. Great job !
I	Ian Spence on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ They had a HUGE selection of PC games, some of which were still sealed. I'll definitely be coming back!
D	Derek Jay on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ pretty small thrift store with a variety of items. I find that some are a bit overpriced.
M	Michelle Beda on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Great location and great deals. The (volunteer!) staff are friendly and helpful, and the items are well-curated: despite a large volume of donations, much of dubious worth (you can see it piling up at the rear entrance,) the staff works hard to sort and organize and real junk does not make it onto the shelves. Bonus - often local shops like Pulp Fiction, and Red Cat Records will donate items so you can will periodically find exceptional deals on books and vinyl. Pricing is extremely reasonable keeping in mind this is a non-profit raising money for the local hospital. When valuable items come in they are not garage-sale priced, having said that I found a box of collectable dishes for $50 (4 place settings for 4 plus some extra plates!)
