I want to love this Goodwill store. People are nice, and…read moresometimes you can find good deals but there are times where I'm wondering if people pricing the stuff are high. You have an item that still has the store's sticker on it priced at .99 cents but Goodwill is selling it for 4.99 is that a joke? Because it succeeded in making me laugh and put it right back on the shelf for the next patron to laugh at. Then, you have items that are clearly from dollar tree priced at 1.99, 2.99 doesn't make a bit of sense to me. Also, there was this one time my mom and I were looking at this small antique folding table and we asked one of the workers to help us unfold it to see how it looked like completely extended and I kid you not, the table fell to pieces on the floor, and we were all staring at each other like, what just happened? The worker had a good sense of humor about it, "Guess it's not for sale after all". But my point is, someone had to have known it was broken in the back, why put it out for sale anyway? Check your items well before you purchase them, especially things like furniture, electronics, and housewares. I don't understand why Goodwill sells some things reasonably and others so expensive especially since many people are donating this stuff so that those who are going through difficult situations can afford it, not for Goodwill to be profiteering off of those who are already in unfortunate circumstances.

It's not a dusty, musty shop of goods that look as though they were dragged out of the garage or attic and nothing here appears to be a modern take on an antique. Things are old, but necessarily antique. So vintage it is, I guess There's a gift shop feel. The lighting is soft, and colors muted. Spread out amongst three rooms is about anything - from teapots, cookie jars, kitchen items and a great deal of miscellany -- to add an interesting accent to a room or a collection. Each room has an overall theme of a sort. One room seems to focus on kitchen, another on study or bedroom, and the main room has day to day items of home décor. Browsing is easy -- the aisles are wide enough to turn around without knocking something over, the placement of items keeps your eye moving. Unless searching for something specific -- and I'd recommend asking the owner, who apparently knows every item in the place -- spend time browsing. It might be a trip down memory lane for you, your parents, or even your grandparents.

The aesthetic is that glowing, comfortable, homey feel of the "childhood" scenes in the new Little Women movie -- not the specific period (though I saw Eastlake dining chairs), but the sense of buying a classic piece that was part of a home and now it's going to be part of your home. It's all delightfully non-snooty, and the housewares aren't the same ones that show up in every antique mall. I ended up buying a necklace and am clutching the business card for the day when I buy a larger place.

I always take a look at the men's shirts first. I was very surprised to see them tagged at $12 here, which is substantially more than I customarily see at the Simsbury store, where I've picked up quite a few similar long sleeve Oxford shirts for $5. Otherwise, the store is very neat and organized and has the usual accompaniment of clothing, footwear, accessories, household goods, books, etc. I'm definitely a fan of thrift and second hand stores, and even though I was looking for a long sleeve white shirt, I walked out empty-handed today.

I was surprised to see their Enfield location had such a low Yelp rating, because I thought the store was pretty good on a lot of features. #1 - The store was very neat and very well organized with plenty of signs indicating the various sizes of clothing. #2 - The store had a TON of clothing -men's women's, accessories, etc. #3 - Pricing seemed pretty nice -I saw a few gorgeous pairs of like-new sneakers (Saukony) for just $15. As far as thrift and consignment stores go, this one was pretty impressive.

Staff act like they're doing you a favor just by acknowledging you, and the buying process is a joke.

Well, you'll get something like the Two Chefs Antiques and Artisan Food Market! Ronald Cornell and Alexandar "Sasha" Scherla--better known as the Two Chefs--have been cooking in the Enfield area for years, (Old Country Banquet Hall and Deli in the former Polish National Home, Smoke BBQ, and Belvedere Deli). Their Enfield shop brings together the signature products from those ventures, including Pierogi Queen pierogi, smoked meats, pastrami, kielbasa, brisket, babka, paczki, crepes, rye bread, plus local bakery items, European sweets, and pickles. Cooking is done off-site, primarily at Belvedere, and sold in freezer cases here inside a 5.000 square foot Art Gallery and Shop alongside, antiques, clocks, artwork, vintage, pottery, glass, comic books, postcards, records, toys, books, clothing, ceramics, figurines, lamps and other collectibles of every description. This is not a thrift store, so pricing is not rock-bottom, if you catch my drift. But the sheer volume of their inventory makes this a fun shopping experience to wander around and browse, like we did. And if you don't see exactly what you're looking for, well....never mind because you just might find that special something for your special someone in their on-line auctions
