My husband and I visit regularly. The store is clean and organized, the items are priced well and are clean.and in good shape. I've told many people that may need medical equipment to check with the Catholic Thrift Store as they frequently have it at a great price. Happy Thrifting!

So far the only place I've been to in the area that has felt like more like an original thrift store (at least for clothing and toys) with good prices. I came in on a whim and realized they were having a bin sale, and picked up some very cute pieces for a steal! I'm now keeping an eye on their fb and insta for the next time. The 1$ rack has a good range of styles, too. While I do dearly miss the thrift culture from where I lived previously, knowing this place exists makes me happy. Next time I go, I'll bring my friends!

Review, take two. π Because everything should be given the benefit of doubt, I decided I would make a random visit to this thrift store again. Because the people had been so kind and I do support the work that they do, felt it was unfair for me not to. On this visit, I am solo and earlier. It wasn't the weekend. There was a steady amount of people in and out and there were plenty of items available. I also took photos on this trip which will include blocking out people as they are not what I am photographing, the place is. βΊοΈ It was tidy and in well order as it was before. There folks do keep the shelves and aisles in good shape. There was a good variety of items as well. I will confess I didn't seek out the water closet/rest room- so I can't say speak to the state of this. It had been my daughter who had previously and she was not in attendance. Prices on furniture is consistently higher here than it is at Attic Treasures in Harlem GA or at the Salvation Army in Thomson GA. They DO have more of a selection and many seem to be real wood, antiqued, and project pieces which - with restoration and care- could make for real treasures. This would not be me saying that these prices are unreasonable. It would be me saying- if a person 'Needed' a kitchen table- not an antique- and PRICE and USE were the main point, go on out to Attic Treasure in Harlem and get a kitchen table for $30 or so- don't spend $200 on this one unless you want to. But hey, what a bargain- those matching oak chairs that'd go with that table- you could get those here. I saw a couch set here that my Mom had when I graduated high school. π Made me feel very nostalgic. Her's was blue though. However, there'd be NO way I'd pay $250 for it. I graduated HS in 1988 when I was 17. I'm 53. π₯Ή I wonder... what HAS that fabric seen in all these years..? π€ My guess... lots. Even if it led a quiet, peaceful life. And- I know what it cost brand new. Probably doesn't help, eh? π«€ But.. (shrugs...

Go to purchase an item I watched a lady bring from the back, and when I went checkout, it didn't have a price listed and they put up a fight about not getting me a price for it and wouldn't sell me the item! They tried to point at a sign about items not having a price they can't sell, well then don't put items on the SALE FLOOR if you ARENT GOING TO SELL IT.. very ugly people here. Do not recommend.
