A cute little thrift shop that thrives on giving money back, especially to furry friends! This thrift store used to be located down the block, but was moved facing the street more in its new location. You can park turning into the street, but no longer coming from the back way. There are a couple of parking spots with the auto shops towards the end. I usually come on the discount days (Tuesday and Thursday's) for educators. I like to browse their cups to find vintage, floral pieces that my mom used to have. In addition to cups and plates, there are endless amounts of clothing articles, toys, books, jewelry, and miscellaneous pet items. Each section is separated towards a designated section, making it easy to browse. The ladies who work here are gentle and kind, always willing to assist you, if needed. Everything is decently priced and there are constantly great deals. I've come on a special sticker priced day, making my items (with the correct colored sticker) 50% off! This store is full of hidden gems and wonderful second-hand items. Please make a stop by in order to support a wonderful cause! You'll never know what you'll find here. read more

This Thrift shop has near new merchandise and the proceeds benefit the Upland Animal Shelter. Donations are tax deductible, too.

Very nice thrift shop. Set up like a boutique, does not have a thrift shop feel to it. Found a hard to find basket I've been looking for here. Also doesn't have that weird musty old clothes/items smell in the store. Reasonable price items. Definitely a must visit for thrift shop lovers. read more

This store is decorated so well! Every section of the store was themed and incorporated all kinds of items and trinkets. The staff were friendly and helpful. Pricing seemed pretty decent. I ended up not purchasing anything during my visit, but would certainly visit this place again if I were ever in the area. read more

2nd Chance has an amazing variety of home items and clothing. If you love music, there are shelves and shelves of cds and records to comb through. I found so many items there to decorate my new place with some old school charm. If you are 55+, a veteran, or teacher, be sure to stop by Tuesday, Thursday, or Sunday to get 10% off! They also offer tag discounts that are mentioned on a sign when you walk in the door. read more

I have to tell you, this thrift store is very organic and clean. It does have a lot to offer. But to me it was too pricey. I know the trend is thrifting now and days but again, if I am going to pay that much, I might as well buy it new. The people there are nice and maintain their items well organized. read more

Clean, easy to shop the store, large variety, prices good and employees/volunteers are very nice!

This place feels more "curated boutique" than thrift store. I was pleasantly surprised in the obvious thought and care that staff puts into the display and organization of all of the items. It is very clean and an all around pleasant place to shop. It is definitely worth checking out! read more

I always donate here. I love supporting the Upland animal shelter and also getting stuff for my pups too.

We purchased Christmas decorations and used them for this past years Christmas tree. We've also purchased some nice clothing and some nice jewelry at affordable prices. It also gives us the chance to support animals at Upland Animal Shelter.. The new store has a better and improved layout. This makes it easier to shop and find great treasures!! The staff is always friendly and welcoming. The value is always there!! So stop by and support this Thrift Store and support the animals of our community!! read more

Money goes to help the animals at Upland Animal Shelter, plus they have really nice things to buy! Staff is wonderful!

Very nice store. Love that it helps the animals. Their new location is so much better.

Really liked this place, stopped by looking for some holiday merchandise, they have a large selection. Everything by seemed reasonably priced. Pretty organized as well, I also appreciate the animal supplies they offer. Will absolutely return. read more

I don't know if upland has higher prices so thrift store have to have crazy prices. Man now I am too poor to shop at thrift stores. I remember growing up and thrift store clothes being $1 now it the same or more then Ross read more

They just moved to a new location and boy what a difference. Bigger, better parking, location is great. The space , layout and merchandising is wonderful. More light. Went there today bought some great stuff. Not overpriced like GW and it goes to the animals . Met some great cats and dogs today. Please go , support a great cause and shop for some new finds read more

Definitely recommend this thrift store not only because they give proceeds for animal rescue but because it is so well merchandised. It's so clean, and inviting to walk around their themed areas I could not resist in writing a review. The staff are lovely and so helpful. Sections are well organized and easy to see what they have instead of having to rummage through items. They even had a watch section my husband liked and purchased some vintage watches. read more

Visited their new location, while it is nice and larger than the previous location, it is set up more like a boutique, with what I feel like is more boutique pricing than thrift store pricing. While it is to support the animal shelter, seems like their prices should be better. Not easy to see everything easily. Worst thing was everything I liked, looked at, would buy, was not for sale. My opinion is that if something is not for sale, then don't have it out on your floor. read more

I donate new or worn once clothes and shoes/boots. I only donate good worthwhile items. Mostly clothes. Maybe that's why prices went up for who says it did. Ha. Everything goes up everywhere. It's still less money than bought in a department store. read more

Came in during a delivery. Just to see what they have. I found a cat tree. $10! Not bad. The place is cool. Workers are cool. Not much to say. Honestly, my only small problem was being asked for ID on a $10 debit card transaction for a cat tree at a thrift shop. I understand this is probably typical procedure but really????????????? I get some kind of way after. But it could just be me. Probably won't be back. Didn't see much worth coming back for. read more

2nd Chance Thrift Shop - Cat tree. $10! - Thrift Stores Near Me - Upland, California

They are a real nice thrift shop with lots of beautiful things but the best part is all purchase help the Upland Animal Shelter!

It's a great cause so it's fun to donate & immediately shop as I often see the items I donated being brought out. Fair prices so it's a win-win! read more

This is the BEST thrift store in Ontario! I moved down here roughly 2 years ago & this thrift store has NEVER disappointed. We're talking home decor, clothes, furniture, books, & pet needs. EVERYONE who works there is so friendly. They really take pride in the presentation of the store. Not only is everything extremely affordable, but they'll discount certain colors each week. I probably go here 1x a week at least, it's just THAT good. Most of my home is decorated with purchases & best believe my wardrobe is filled with thrift store treasures! Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a new favorite store love this place! attached are some of my thrift store favorites! read more

The store itself is fine. They have a variety of things. Pricing runs the gamut. Some things are priced well, and others are way more than they should be. Honestly, there doesn't always seem to be a strong grasp on what an item is worth. The parking is a problem. This is an industrial area, so there are several businesses next to and behind the thrift store. There are about 4 or 5 spots in front of the store, but if you don't get one of those, you have to park elsewhere and walk over. I parked between the store and a neighboring business, and when I came out, the woman parked next to me had been the victim of a hit and run. She said this happens often in this parking area. read more

Love the early drop off option- 9:30 am Tuesday- Saturday Quick and easy. Pull up to table in back and get out of your car and place items on table Con- paper receipt read more

I've been going to this thrift store for some years now and I've found a few treasures here and there, but in the last few years I've noticed huge price changes and they don't seem to have many sales like they used to. They have taken the path of many thrift stores and use eBay to research items. This is fine, but they should look at what has SOLD on eBay to price items, not what someone has priced it at. They would move a lot more items if their prices were a little lower. read more

Really charming thrift store. Organized and merchandise well displayed. Great appliance and china selection. Prices are very reasonable. I'm liking these smaller shops than the big, untidy or unclean, larger popular thrift shops. Nice jewelry selection with customers waiting in line to view the jewelry case. Nice cookbook selection. I will be frequenting this place often. TY! read more

Love this store. Your purpose really is inspiring specially helping the animal shelter. Quality of your goods are exemplary and workers are pleasant. Keep up the good w work. read more

Didn't think the prices were that great. But then it seems most Thrift stores aren't what they used to be.

Service was good as was selection and value is excellent. Collections of antiques and clothing and housewares

Since they can't delete criticism here, I'm posting here. First off, I'm really disappointed in their staff and how unprofessional and immature they've handled two recent situations. I've frequented this thrift for years- since they were at the old location. It's been a good place to find treasures and deals. Unfortunately, over the years, they're falling to greed, like most thrifts have, and the prices have been creeping up here and there. They're not as bad as Goodwill, but it's starting to toe the line with some items. I've even heard staff consulting with ebay to price items. I know they need to generate revenue, but they're getting free inventory. They don't have to price dirt cheap, but if I wanted ebay prices, I'd go to ebay. Given how thrifts like Goodwill are, I no longer donate to them and prefer to donate to this one since proceeds go to the animal shelter. I dropped off some donations the other day and went inside to browse. When I came back out, the donation drop off was closed and I saw someone going through the dumpster, which I noticed was much fuller than it was when I dropped off my donations a half hour prior. Inside, I noticed an item I'd donated was there. It was in good condition and not trash worthy (I would have tossed it, had it been). I took it back and will be donating it elsewhere. I'll likely also start donating everything elsewhere since the sorters have no problem throwing out perfectly good items that, what, don't fit the decor aesthetic that they try to keep up with inside? I mean really? They have signs inside, stating they need donations and yet the sorters are throwing out bags of donations, and the few pieces that I took a look at seemed fine, so who knows how much of it actually was not sellable? It looked pretty comparable to the stuff I see on the racks at times, so I'm not sure what their problem was. Which leads to the second issue- I left a comment on their IG, letting them know that they may want to check what's going on with the sorters since they're throwing out so much, how wasteful it is, especially since they're asking for donations currently. They deleted it and either limited comments or blocked me from being able to comment further. No idea which. Really, really immature response from whoever runs their social media. This organization needs to take a closer look at who they let volunteer considering how poorly these occurrences have been handled. After having been a big fan of this thrift and frequenting it for years, all this has really soured my outlook on how this place operates and the staff that they keep on hand. Do I want to shop here anymore? No idea. Will I be donating here anymore? Hell no. I was donating here, thinking they were better than Goodwill in that department, but apparently not. read more

This store is always over priced. Better off going to Acts Thriftstore or Goodwillin Pomona down the street. Better selection and prices.

Love this place! So many goodies, great prices. I love that there are also so many vintage items at a decent price. Very well organized and displayed and everyone is super nice! Will be back soon :) read more

This is a great little thrift store full of hidden gems. I never leave empty handed here.

This has to be the nicest thrift shop I have ever shopped at. My beautiful doberman was adopted from Friends of Upland Animal Shelter. Not only does this Thrift Shop support our furry friends, but it is full of amazing treasures. Nothing is overpriced... I could have spent hours in there. The place is immaculate, warm and inviting... Everything about this place says, "Welcome!" read more

Oh, I just discovered this great place! The items are high quality and beautifully displayed. The employees are so nice and each time I'm there I'm told I'm eligible for some discount. Plus, the cause, the Upland Animal Shelter, is the best! read more
