The prices on the stuff I did check out were on the high side. They had toys, drugstore items, books, clothing, home goods, and a little bit of everything.

I don't know if it is the same business or two separate businesses? I think they also buy gold? There is a lot going on here. In any case I didn't go over to the antique store.

One hundred percent of the proceeds from this store benefits the Angels of Hope Outreach Ministries, a Christian charity with the mission to end homelessness in the Treasure Coast. You can volunteer with them or donate items to this thrift store. The store generates money for the charity but it also offers lost cost items to the community. Some of the items I saw were socks, pantry food items, toys, new power banks for only $3, clothes, and home goods. Prices were inexpensive and the people working were very friendly. I love how this store is helping the community while helping others stretch their budget. Check them out if you are in the area.

They are striving to open a transitional facility that will give victims and survivors housing, counseling, therapy, education, financial aid, healthcare, and childcare. Rufs is located in the St. Lucie plaza. While this plaza has seen better days, don't let the shabby exterior deter you from visiting this gem of a thrift store. Inside is a boutique like interior with tons of clothes, accessories, small appliances, and household goods. Prices are deeply discounted and everything is attractively arranged. If you have a young lady in your life in need of a formal dress for prom or homecoming, this is the place to go. Gowns which still had their hundreds of dollars price tags were marked down to $50. Another item that caught my eye was a the perfect pair of high heels for Halloween. The couple who were working the store were friendly and sweet. Come out and support this great organization while updating your wardrobe and saving money all at the same time.

The worst: If you happen to get a piece of clothing that does not have a ticket label they will not sell it to you. I was there today and purchased 7 items and just because one piece of clothing did not have a ticket label the clerk refused to sell it to me. I really wanted that particular item. I beg him to please sell it but he won't budge. It was not even my fault. It was theirs for not labeling item. I did not think it was fair. I don't think I would return to that particular store.

My most recent purchase was a blond cabinet that was just the right size. It needed some elbow grease but cleaned up beautifully well. Last season I had been looking for a living room side table with storage or a shelf.

They had one in great shape for $65. It was perfect! They even help you load your car!

Good Samaritan Ministries was founded with the mission of providing "safe, Christ-centered homes of rehabilitation and support for men and women seeking to overcome the struggles of hardship and a destructive lifestyle." Proceeds from this thrift store goes to supporting a residential faith-based recovery program at homes they own, the food pantry across the street, and other community services. The gentleman who was working when I visited was friendly and welcoming. He offered to even show me things in the back that weren't on the sales floor. I had dun exploring the eclectic mix of reasonably priced items they had for sale which included china, wedding dresses, Le Creuset, and a bust of Abraham Lincoln. They sell furniture, household decor, clothes, accessories, and small appliances. Good Samaritan Ministries will happily accept your donations and there is a list on their website of items they are seeking. You can see them at work with the food pantry across the street. I love supporting non profits like this one who are positively impacting their communities.

The items were then given to the people who worked on them or were resold. Goodwill's philosophy is "a hand up, not a hand out." Goodwill Industries of Central Florida started in 1959. Today Goodwill has become a $5 billion nonprofit organization that provides job training, employment, and community programs for people who have disabilities that might prevent them from getting a job on their own. This Goodwill is part of Gulfstream Goodwill which was founded by the former Mayor of West Palm Beach, Ham Anthony in 1966 in Palm Beach County. Mr. Anthony brought together local business leaders made up of some the most prominent businessmen in Palm Beach County at that time. They started with 10 employees and have grown to 900 operating the largest health, human and social services nonprofit in the South Florida area providing employment, training, and housing. Today Gulfstream Goodwill operates in five counties: Palm Beach, Martin, Okeechobee, St. Lucie, and Indian River Counties. Gulf Stream Goodwill has 27 retail locations, 2 outlets, and 41 donation centers. Gulfstream Gulfstream Goodwill also operates 4 rehabilitation facilities and many residential transitional housing facilities. I discovered this Goodwill store while driving down Oslo Road in Vero Beach. It is located next to a Salvation Army thrift store for even more thrifting fun. This Goodwill has a ton of clothing for men, women, and children, accessories, furniture, home goods, toys, small appliances, books, and more, all at discounted prices. Everything is organized by type, color, and size so shopping is a breeze. Thrifting is enjoying a resurgence as a cool hobby. There are a ton of Instagram videos showing how you can have a business thrifting or how to style and transform thrifted items. A can of spray paint can give just about any item new life. I really enjoyed thrifting at this large, clean, and well organized Goodwill. Goodwill has even added new items to complete their thrift inventory. Not only can you find a unique bargain but you are repurposing items and keeping them out of the landfill while helping the community through your purchase at the same time.
