This sale has been going on since 1950. The parents association drives planning and work all year…read moreround. The sale is held in 3 buildings on the Lakeside campus. For two days, items are discounted and treasures can be found. Parking is hard to come by. However, if you park at the 145th park and ride, they have a shuttle on Saturday (I'm not sure about Sunday). For furniture pick up, they will let you into the lot to pull up to the doors to make for easy loading and unloading. I saw tons of volunteers and they were all very nice. They were easily identifiable with aprons and were organized pretty well. Food was available from two food trucks and a concession stand run by students. I found great deals in the electronics room including 2 camera lenses, a computer monitor, and 2 robotic dogs for my little guy. At $26 for everything, I got a great deal! I bought a Columbia fleece, Quiksilver pants, and basketball warm ups for my kiddo at the whopping price of $3 for everything. I got tons of kitchen stuff for my sibling that just got a new apartment as well as old school Tupperware, gadgets, and a pruning saw for $13. I spent 5 hours here shopping. If you shop in the morning, you get a $5 off coupon that you can use between 2pm and 4pm. Overall, the prices were very reasonable and I had a great time. On Sunday, you buy a bag (small for $6 or garbage bag for $20) and stuff it full. Electronics and Best of Show items are half price and you can't use the bag on them. 4-stars primarily for the parking situation and the fact that they want you to eat so you will continue to shop but fail to give you anywhere to sit down. This was an issue because of the amount of rain we had that day.

AM I AT ROSS??? 3/5…read moreStars I totally understand that a rummage sale wouldn't have the best quality things nor will it have brand new things, but a lot of their items for sale costed way too much. If I was going to pay $10 for a used T-shirt, I could go to Ross and buy a brand new one. Used plates were $5, Ross would be brand new for $5. I'm trying this at that the prices are way over priced. I understand it's all for charity, but the donated items should be sold for a little less. The reason why it wasn't a 1/5 Stars is due to the fact that the last day there are sales. It was 50% off majority of the things and by the end of the day, everything. I was able to find lots of vintage cameras and film for an amazing deal. I would suggest everyone to check out the electronic side because they have the best prices for awesome items. The clothes and everything else isn't worth it until it goes on the half of deal. I would still come back to browse for stuff and definitely check out the electronic section again. As for clothes or home decor, bring your money!!!! It's good that they accept cash and cards!

I like this place! Check out my first picture, I picked up that piece of artwork for $25 at this…read morelocation. I'm somewhat new to shopping at Goodwill. Ever since I stop by out of curiosity, i've been hooked. I love the artwork I got for cheap. This location compared to one I went to in Renton feels cleaner, but that location had its own perks. This location is staffed with friendly people. The place is tidy with some cool finds. Some things seem over priced. I usually find good deals in the tool isle. I like some of the unique items I have seen. But Goodwill knows how to price them so they are not too good of a deal. For example a small wooden sailboat I liked was priced at $30. I can find it online for the same price brand new. Often times, the items that are marked up more than usual are labeled as an "antique" on the price sticker. That is definitely one example of how some things may seem overpriced when you shop at goodwill. My wife and I were going to grab a play kitchen for our toddler. Those go for $100+ at Target or walmart. Goodwill had one priced at $30 and check out the picture of it on this review, it's a nice one... They got seasonal items and other things that are brand new. Fridge with cold drinks, candy and snacks at the front. A bathroom for customers. You are good to shop for hours if you want to...lol Minus 1 star because some items are overpriced.

There is no good will at this store. They asked me to donate to their employee training program…read morebefore they ask if I wanted to purchase a bag... seems likely that its so they can pocket the change. After opting out of donating I asked if I was going to get bags for the glassware I purchased, the cashier (male with a lot of tattoos) got upset and literally threw a bag at me... and I bagged the items myself. I don't complain. I observe and report. But only when the service is reprehensible.

Please stay far away from this shop…read more I found this place on Apple Maps, I had never seen it before, I go check it out. As soon as I walk in the isles are small and made me feel suffocated, I'm use to antique stores being crowded but this was just gross and disgusting. The music was BLARING I couldn't even think. I look through one small rack of clothes and a small box in the front, nothing peaked my interest so I walk out of the store without purchasing anything. I go into another shop next door, later as I'm leaving another shop, a lady with long dark hair starts running at me filming me saying I stole and to never come back. She took pictures of my car, she filmed me. Lord knows where she will post them. I felt so scared, I didn't even come to the conclusion that she thought I stole till a bit after, I was terrified that this strange lady was screaming and filming me getting into my car. I was shaking and on the verge of tears on my way home.

A cute thrift shop in the heart of Ballard Seattle nestled in among hip restaurants and coffee…read moreshops. We walked by in the evening and a blue flower vase caught my eye so we stopped the next day. It was a small shop but packed with an assortment of clothes, dishes and small surprises. I love to browse in thrift shops especially when it's not just junk. I bought my vase, at 50% off. The elderly ladies who volunteered were also sweet. Worth a stop if you are in the neighborhood and like thrift shops.

We purchased artwork, jewelry, plus men's and women's clothes. All the items were in great condition at incredible prices. They keep the prices low so the donated goods sell fast! The volunteers who work the shop are always very helpful and personable. I think this thrift shop is one of the best kept secrets in Seattle.

I like the new spot. Solid location, with very decent street parking available all around. The…read moreneighborhood is really cute, and there are a lot of things to do nearby. I find that appealing because personally, I'd never stop at a kid's consignment without coffee, lunch, bakeries, etc nearby to combine experiences. I strolled in with a coffee, and they let me leave my box of pastries at the counter while I browsed, which was really great. One of the cool things about this business is that they have both used and new items, so it's a really good spot to browse for gifts, find something unexpected, or just check out toys. I really like that some of the toy displays had models available, so you could manipulate and try the item before buying. Decent selection of used clothing, although as usual the girl items are far more interesting than the boys' basics. Took a star off because they got my email for discounts/membership, and then proceeded to spam me daily with emails.

Had a great experience here buying a used Nuna Mixx 2 stroller. Definitely saw some things inside…read morethat I would have loved to buy as well! Owner is very friendly, experienced, and professional! She showed us the full rundown of all the stroller features and let us know we could put baby in and give it a whirl up and down the road if we wanted. I see some salty reviews about people not getting as much money as they would have liked for their used items, and I'm a little confused about it haha. The owner is very polite and professional in looking over used items, and it's pretty much a thing at any consignment store that they take items for cheaper than you might be able to sell on OfferUp or similar services, but it's about the convenience and ease of bringing stuff into the shop instead of dealing with flaky meetups. You can decide to sell your items elsewhere if you feel like it, nobody is twisting your arm into accepting an offer hahahah. Definitely consider going here for baby stuff instead of big retailers like Target or ordering on Amazon! I will recommend this store to friends and family and definitely be returning next time we are on the hunt for baby items :)
