What a great stop for antiques! Great pricing, good people and a $8,500 working jukebox. Clean,…read morewell organized, and you can see the tags to the merchandise. The parking is on an an angle out front so if you have a big truck you will stick out. We walked away with a flower vase and a glass Pepsi bottle. So impressed with this stop.

What a find !! This unassuming shop appeared to be a small residence, but was actually a very…read morelarge treasure trove of antiques. Slow down as you approach the address, as it's set back from the street. Look for the large lit sign and banners, then pull in the shared driveway to a small private lot and get ready for a great shopping experience. The couple that operate the store were extremely friendly and helpful. They buy and sell! The store seems to specialize in glassware, ceramics, crystal, china, and other household items - but there are also toys, games, model trains, Disneyana, and even a beautiful Seeberg Jukebox waiting for their next proud owner! There's also some nice antique furniture, cabinets, chairs, bookcases and the like. No junk! Prices clearly marked! And the prices generally seemed pretty reasonable. And cabinets are unlocked so you can browse and select without needing to wait for the key!! We bought a full set of beautiful last century Christmas ornaments, an aluminum drinkware set, a 60's NASA commemorative glass, and a pair of beaded pears for about $30!! A great antique store in the Greater Saint Louis area, minutes from Afton IL, just across the Mississippi! We will be back!!

There was a grandfather clock I would have loved to own, very reasonably priced. You can find so many unique giftS. China sets! So much stuff that is so neat! A MUST GO TO ANTIQUE STORE!

Hobbit's Hole and Antiques & Curiosities did an Estate Sale for my mom. We are very pleased with…read morethe entire process from beginning to end. Stan was very thorough during the initial interview. After interviewing other Estate Sale Agents we knew Stan was the one. After we booked the date and dropped off the keys they did such a professional job with advertising, appraising items and selling them at a fair price both for my mom and the buyers, and display of merchandise. Stan and his wife Gail were prompt to answer any questions we had throughout the process. After the sale Stan and Gail did an excellent job of cleaning up the house and helping us with the unsold merchandise with donations and trash. I would highly recommend Hobbit's Hole Antique's & Curiosities if you are considering an Estate Sale. Thank you again Stan and Gail for all your hard work!

3 Charming Chicks is such a creative and affordable place to shop. I'm going to miss them. The…read morefirst week-end in May will be their farewell. Lucky for us thrifters, a new business called Terra-Cotta will be taking over. The reason I enjoy shopping at 3CC is I can find treasures at cheap prices. I love the bargains you can find at yard or estate sales, but I don't have the patience to drive around and shop them. That's why I love the ladies of 3CC, they do the shopping, buy the best offerings and bring them together at their showroom. Then I shop their boutique and get my goodies. Also within their showroom there are a variety of other vendors who offer; jewelry, greeting cards, jellies and clothing. It's almost like a famers market, but for home decor and clothing. While shopping, if you need to use the restroom, you will see a very stunningly beautiful non-gender specific bathroom. It's a deep green, has four separate stalls with floor to ceiling walls and three basins to wash your hands. I wish all public restrooms were this posh. The ladies who are the 3 Chicks, are charming and make shopping their showroom a fun experience.

This is such a fun place! My groups love going here and shopping - a whole busload of goodies!read more

I came back for a second visit and was impressed for a thrift store…read more Like my first visit, I was impressed with the cleanliness and organization of store. I've shopped full-price retail stores that are not this well organized. I liked that they have mens shirts separated by style. It made it easy to shop for short sleeve casual. I got lucky today and found three shirts. They were clean, had all their buttons and I didn't see any rips or holes. Once I rewash and iron them, they'' be ready to go. I went to use the self check-out and they had a young lady there who did it for you. She was great. She was perky, friendly, personable and professional. Other retailers would be lucky to have someone as good as her. I'm getting over my dislike of thrift shopping, so I'll be back.

Most Items were not clean examples luggage was old and dingy, kids and babies items looked worn and dated , kitchenware looked rusted and worn . In my opinion just because you are a thrift store , items should still be gently used otherwise it's just junk. Everyone's junk is not everyone 's treasure . I'm just saying if you are the staff that is deciding what goes out and what gets trashed , think for one sec and if you won't buy it , most likely no one will. Be mindful of customers time and monies. Clothes were reasonably price . Mattresses were available at this location . Men items and Christmas decor were just ok.
