The clothes are priced average, but I don't know who is in charge now of pricing the furniture, its outrageous the price that they're putting on it.you could go to Target or Walmart and get a dresser or kitchen set brand new for what they're asking for. I've been shopping here for years and never seen them price furniture like this.

Very messy and over priced. I do like how they price the clothes with a tag.(and not a stapler like other shops do.)The employees are very nice.

Definitely a no frills kind of store, which is fine with me. I think the pricing is sensible - some furniture items a bit damaged but are priced accordingly, so good for a DIY'er to find materials to work with. Clothes are tidy, but could use some organization with the frames, mirrors, and knick knacks.

NUMEROUS CHIPPED ITEMS AND SUPER HIGH PRICES ON ITEMS YOU CAN GET AT THE DOLLAR STORE. MANAGER IS UNFRIENDLY AND HAS PEOPLE SHE TAKES CARE OF WHO GO IN FOR CERTAIN ITEMS THAT THE PUBLIC DOES GET A CHANCE TO PURCHASE. RELIGIOUS ITEMS ARE TEN TIMES THE COST OF BUYING THEM NEW. I WAS THERE AGAIN ON WEDNESDAY AND A SMALL 4 INCH STATUE THAT WAS PAINTED OVER AND PEELING SHE WANTED 4 DOLLARS FOR THAT CAN BE BOUGHT NEW FOR 2 DOLLARS. THIS IS SHAMEFUL I AM SORRY TO HAVE TO RELAY THIS BUT I HAVE GONE IN THERE SEVERAL TIMES ONLY TO SEE THE SCAM GOING ON. THE CASHIER'S DO NOT TRUST ANYONE AND MAKE YOU FEEL UNCOMFORTABLE OTHER THRIFT STORES ARE FRIENDLY AND DO NOT TRY TO SELL BROKEN ITEMS TO PEOPLE WHO DON'T KNOW BETTER OR CAN'T SEE WELL.

I wanted to try on a bunch of stuff but the line was really long so I gave up. Wasn't anything I really wanted.

Very expensive store, try the nearby Kmart for cheaper clearance clothing. Housewares aren't bad prices but clothing is pretty outrageously priced for a thrift. Stuffed animals and toys are reasonably priced for a thrift.

Cheaper overall than other thrift stores; supports American Vets and saves U.S. jobs.

A no-frills kind of place that could do with a bit more organization when it comes to housewares and toys. The whole store would benefit from a bit of redecorating.

I've found amazing items at this store. Because you never know when great things are coming in, you really have to stop in every few days in order to get the best items before everyone else does.

I always score great vintage items at this store. It's a little grubby, but overall I really like it.

Large, lots of clothes and furniture but nothing any good. The shelves of dishes, knick-knacks, etc were very unorganized, lots of broken stuff. Dirty, felt like I needed a shower when I left.
