It's quieter, less chaotic, and often more affordable than the big chains, making it a great stop for budget hunters and anyone who enjoys slower, more intentional browsing. Strengths of Penny Pincher - Lower prices -- One of the most budget‑friendly thrift stores around. Clothing, books, and household items are often significantly cheaper than Value Village or Talize. - Community vibe -- Staff and volunteers are friendly, and the store feels like a local staple rather than a corporate chain. - Hidden gems -- Because it's smaller and less picked over, you can find unique items that would disappear instantly at bigger stores. - Calmer environment -- No overwhelming crowds or massive aisles. It's easy to take your time and actually enjoy the hunt. - Good for household basics -- Kitchenware, décor, linens, and small home items are usually well‑priced and in good condition. Things to Expect - Smaller selection -- Inventory is limited compared to Value Village or Talize, so you won't always find what you're looking for. - Electronics are rare -- Speaker hunters won't get much action here; the electronics section is small and inconsistent. - Stock depends heavily on donations -- Some days are fantastic, others are dry. - Shorter hours -- Being a community shop, it doesn't stay open as late as the big chains. Who Penny Pincher Is Perfect For - Shoppers who want low prices without corporate markups. - People who enjoy quiet, relaxed thrifting. - Hunters looking for unique home items or vintage pieces. - Anyone doing a full Surrey thrift circuit who wants a calm mid‑stop between the bigger stores. Quick, Review‑Ready Summary Penny Pincher is a cozy, community‑run thrift store with excellent prices and a relaxed atmosphere. The selection is smaller but often more unique, and the staff make the experience warm and welcoming. It's not the place for electronics or big hauls, but it's a great stop for affordable clothing, home goods, and unexpected treasures.

I like thrift stores when I'm out of town, and have time to kill. It's fun to see what kinda cool…read morestuff you can find, as well as helping out a good cause. ( The proceeds from this store go to help children in one of four orphanages in Mexico. ) The store isn't huge, but the prices are so great. I couldn't believe it, after seeing what some of the other local larger thrift stores charge -sometimes more then the actual retail price ... *cough*VV*cough* Anyway I came just before closing, so I didn't get to look around much. They had a sign for 50% off yellow tags. I found 2 new in packaging Ty Beanie Baby's for 1.00$ each ( but they were yellow tagged making them 1.00$ for both ! ) my friend collects them, so I couldn't resist. They made an announcement that they were closing soon. Which I loved- I hate it when a store is closed with no prior warning. I then saw the shoes on display. Again, unlike VV they were clean and gently used. I had only brought my boots with me ( I was in town for a few days ) and really could of used some casual shoes to slip on, instead of wearing my thigh high boots all the time, during this trip. I wear a 10 in footwear, so it's not always easy finding my size. I asked the lady if it was too late to try them on, and she was super nice. She told me to go ahead. Both pairs fit, and at 2$ and 3$ each how could I go wrong ? I also bought a glass heart necklace ( see pic ) for 1.00$ ! They had a good sized book selection at the back. I love to read, and go through 4-5 books a week ( another reason I like thrift stores- I can get my book fix ) there was only a few minutes to spare, so I didn't have time to browse but I did pick out a hardcover book. The lady on cash was also super nice and friendly. She rang me up and got me a nice box for my necklace.The total for everything ? Only 9.60$ !! I'm sure if I had more time to look, I would of probably found more stuff I really didn't need. But thrift stores is a fun way to spend some time, and not a lot of money. Langley seems to have a awful lot of thrift stores, so if you are in town, add this one to your list of places to stop by!

I dropped off some prized-pieces of dresses, shoes and clothing items I have been trying to keep for years, wishing some day I may be able to fit in them again. Well, some wishes don't come true but I didn't forget to drop in and check out what they have in season. Their clothing boutique is small but quite sweet and was visually appealing. To my surprise, I found a Smart Set dress that was in an exceptional condition (SS was one of my fave stores that was discontinued). It fit like a glove and even better it was prized at $4! What a steal! This thrift store was a bit far off from downtown Langley but was worth the drive out. I would definitely come here again, especially when I donate again but also will be checking out any rare find!

I had visited the website for years, and decided to walk in one day to look at the watches. I was…read morevery impressed by the layout of the store and the amount of product. Their selection is second to none, and I could have easily spent an entire day there. I had many questions about certain pieces and the staff were very patient and kind with answering all my inquiries. I spoke with Vahid and can understand why his business has been active for so long. Bottomline, if you love watches and supporting local businesses, I easily recommend checking out It's About Time & Jewelery. I'm looking forward to my next visit. Oh, and there is lots of parking.

Finally they said it was ready, so we brought it home, hung it on the wall, and, it didn't work. Wee took it back in and were told 3-4 days. After a month we were told one of the gears were broken and they couldn't say how long it would take. They have now been "fixing" it for 7 months. We told them we want bour money back and we will take it elsewhere. We took it to Watch Market in Coquitlam and were told a week. He called us in 6 days and said it was ready. I asked if any gears were broken? He said no. Also he charged me $100.00 less!!

I didn't even know that was the case at first, as it's so bright, clean and organized. It looks like a smaller department store. Clothing is arranged by size, and then within that size, by colour. They have a good selection of cool clothing that looks to be in good to excellent condition. However there were a few items that screamed retire me please ! Besides woman's, men's and kids clothes, they have -Toys - they had some Monster high dolls for cheap ! -Books - good fair price -Housewears -Accessories -Footwear The change rooms are large and you can bring up to 9 items in at a time. They have a loyalist card which earns points with every purchase. You can also get 30% off coupon with large 2 bag donation.
