My first time visiting Catholic Charities Thrift Shop near downtown Fresno today. I have not gone…read morethrifting in a long time. I have some special (to me) items that I want to donate but I wanted to see the shop first. Everything was very nice and organized and items were displayed well, and treated respectfully. I could tell the staff takes a lot of pride in their work. As one other reviewer shared, this is also a store that is serving the community. While I was there I observed the staff providing clothing and other items directly to those in need, (via a voucher -so all very well organized). I made a small purchase and the check out team carefully wrapped up my 4 glasses to ensure they made it home safely and I was very touched by their kindness. I hope others will consider shopping here and also donating their treasures to Catholic Charities. I still have quite a few things from my parents home that I have had a hard time letting go of, but after visiting, I feel the items will be appreciated and handled kindly and may help make a difference.

The thrift store has a dumb nut security guard who hassles seniors with service pets. He asks…read morepersonal HEPA questions in front of everyone. He is NOT professional. He continually stalks you in the store jabbering about "everyone lies about their dog". I don't care to hear about his problems with other people.

The gentlemen who came out has helped us before earlier this year with a very messy move and has…read morebeen helping us clean up our moving detritus like boxes, broken items and other stuff. I thought the price was a bit eye watering but dad is pretty frugal so I feel like he's been really pleased with the progress and price! Even with a few hiccups from the move (several boxes marked fragile on all sides got stacked under heavier boxes and everything inside broke) I still feel like if you need a job done, they're gonna get you through it.

Just used College Hunks for the second time. FANTASTIC service to remove junk from my residence…read more Got them to my house in a very short time. Boys who arrived did a great job of clarifying the cost before the work began. They worked quickly and efficiently and were very pleasant to deal with. Highly recommend this service for junk removal!!!!!

The only reason why they are getting one less star is because they close so dang early, lol…read more I actually came to this thrift store after I went to Fresno Auction for an Authentic Hermes Bolide Bag. My $50 did not go far there. Haha. However, it did go far at Valley Veterans Thrift. They are right next to Emerald Thrift Store. They seem small from the outside, but as you walk in, they are extremely big. Not only that, they are very clean and organized. They do have some nice items and i scored a Lee Sands Eel skin purse and little mini bucket bag for only $10 altogether so my $50 budget went far here. They do have Coach, Michael Kors and other items. I saw a Coach Poppy bag (my least favorite style out of coach) for $25, but it was not worth it due to ink stains. I'm on the search for Vintage- not Y2K, but Vintage Vintage Coach bags, but i love all bags. I know when a bag is genuine leather by touch. Definitely a thrift store to check out.

When I first started yelping and joined the Elite team in 2015, I never knew what it was about. As…read moreit grew and more members joined, I found a lot of people asking me to do food and restaurant content even though I honestly didn't know how to edit videos. My friend. Sally does amazing content though and I'm happy for her and since there were so many great content creators for food already, my focus has shifted to the amazing second hand scene Fresno has. Listen, we're not the East Coast when it comes to antiques or designers because hello, one of the biggest Fashion Week is in New York. However, there are times when you will find treasures. I have been wanting to make my way to this thrift store and I came because I had a doctor's appointment nearby. It is the old 99 cents store and it was huge. I was going to need more time to browse everything. While I do love Coach, I love fabrics and animal skin and I found the most darling calf skin, mink, kisslock wallet. I deleted the photo. They have a little seating area like a library where they sell books and a curated vintage section. They do help out the community, I think, the unhoused and contributes to sober living. The cashier was extremely nice because I was so excited when I realized my wallet was on sale.

Cannot get enough of this children's book section!!! I'm almost afraid to say something because…read moremaybe it won't be as awesome if word gets out lol! I got 12 books for $19. Some of these books retail for $10-$15 on amazon. I think I got lucky, but I was seriously excited for my hunt today. I noticed they also have Easter coming out! I didn't look around the entire store today but I'm sure valentines is out somewhere too!!

2/20/26 around 2pm…read more The cashier was rude. Elder lady with long curly brown hair and glasses. She was all smiles and chatting it up with the white woman in front of me and when it was my turn she was completely silent. No smiles and no greeting. Just immediately asking in a rude tone if I wanted a bag. Didn't bother to inform me about the exchange rules either, but I overheard her explain it to the woman in front of me before she walked off from the register. I cannot fathom having such poor customer service skills and treating customers like that. Imagine if it were one of your family members receiving this kind of treatment. I hope she can learn from that experience and that it won't happen again. The only good thing I can say about this place is that they definitely have a variety of stuff.

I love this service. I have been known in the past to bag up clothes to donate and drive around…read morewith them in my car for days or even weeks. Just porch it makes it so easy for me not to do that. The process to schedule a pick up was so super easy and fast. I love that they came one or two days later. I was pleasantly surprised that I did not have to wait a long time for them to come pick up my items. I left the items next to my front door and they came and picked up my bags on time. I had seven or eight large trash bags, stuffed with shoes, clothes and a couple of purses. I also loved when the pick up driver picked up my items, he didn't just throw them in the truck. He placed them in the truck, that shows that he cares about what he is doing. I will definitely be using them again next go round of cleaning out my closets, and I will also be suggesting just porch it to all of my friends.

Amvets is my #1 go-to thrift store. Just be aware that the parking lot can be a bit sketchy at…read moretimes because there are normally drifters hanging out around there. don't let that stop you from coming to this big beautiful place! I don't always find a good selection for clothes at most thrift store but here i always find something. they have a vast array of pants, shirts, shoes and things for the hoe. I got the cutest little play kitchen for my toddler. It was in excellent condition and it was only $35! that was a steal in my opinion because it came with all of the pieces, had a light up burner and everything. when you shop here i think i remember they ask that you keep the hangers on the rack. i try to do that at most places so i don't have to walk up with a bunch of hangers. come here during the Halloween season to find cheap costumes. they turn the back room into a Halloween central! you can find costumes and decorations for cheap!

I've been coming here for years, and recently it's been bad every Wednesday used to be super busy and now it's like a normal day, senior discount really doesn't make a difference unless you buy so much. The prices increase for all women's shirts, blouses etc, shoes are price at 7.99 and there nearly coming apart. Ever since the new district manager took over everything just inflated with prices. Pretty hard to compete when majority of thrift stores are cheap. Lines are extremely long, always one cashier so it's really un desiring to wait.
