What stood out most was the selection of cookware, most in really good condition. The displays were thoughtfully put together and added a nice touch. Some of the prices were a bit high, but I saw that they offer discounts on specific days. They also have self checkout , which surprised me, but staff was also nearby in case assistance was needed.

I continue to be impressed with 2nd Ave. thrift superstores as I've been to a few. They are…read moreconsistent in what you will experience. 1) scent: really have I experienced that thrift store smell whenever I go into a 2nd Ave. thrift store. This one is the same. So they get four stars for that. 2) selection: the store was well stocked, and I found a few things I was looking for and a few things I wasn't but realize I needed 3) size: I called is a superstore, but compared to the store tomorrow it's about half the size. It wasn't as small as some of the Goodwills but I don't know that I would call it a superstore. 4) prices: as 2nd Ave. always does. There are two colors that were 50% off so if you can find those you'll get some great deals. Otherwise the prices were decent. It seems as though many thrift stores have raised their prices, but I wouldn't say the prices were outrageous or unreasonable. 5) location: it was relatively easy to find, and had a sufficient amount of parking. 6) service: I appreciate the self check out that they offer. And the staff was responsive and helpful when I was looking for a couple of items in the store. Overall, this is absolutely worth a stop, and I will likely be back.

Charity's Closet is a gold mine of a discovery…read more Gently used clothing in good or better condition, with many garments priced from $5 to $15 each. There actually are two stores here; one handles slightly more upscale items for around $25 each. Especially for people perhaps losing weight and in an intermediate size, the price is right! Sizes are marked but definitely try things on, as they can be mismarked. Plenty of changing rooms exist, the staff is helpful and on Saturdays, donations of clothing are accepted.

What do you do as a young family, trying to price together a household as you move from one end of the country to the other? You head to the thrift shop. What do you do when your orders are in and you realize that you seem to have too much of everything, and you need to reduce? You head to the thrift shop. Most importantly, what do you do when you enjoy a bargain, want to consign your no longer needed items, or want to spend a few hours volunteering in your community? Of course, you head to the thrift shop. The AOSC Thrift Shop is open Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, and the first and third Saturdays of the month. The money they collect goes towards scholarships and small projects that help the Andrews Air Force Base community. They carry clothes, accessories, and household goods but are limited on space, so very little furniture is available. It is also a fantastic place to shop for a bargain, especially during PCS (Permanent Change of Station) season! Access is limited to those with military base access.

Wow, people denigrating this thrift store for being a little dingy. Fam! It's a thrift store. What…read moredid you expect? If you want Nordstrom, go to Nordstrom. Holy cow! What I can tell you is this -- I came here looking for decent suits and I found *many* of them. Racks and racks full of suits. I tried on around 10, I bought six of them. In that group of six, only *one* will need alterations. That's right -- five suits bought and ready to wear for right around $100. I've been to a bunch of thrift stores in the DMV. Really, look at my other reviews. Bottom line -- if you want real variety in men's suits, I haven't found any place better yet. Yes, maybe some thrifts have *nicer* suits on a per capita basis, but at this store, you'll have a lot of options and if you have a relatively common body-type like mine, you can come away with a full closet if you want it.
