    Harvesting Capabilities - Me meeting with the board of Harvesting Capabilities in Peru, Indiana

    Harvesting Capabilities

    (4 reviews)

    Today was the second time I had a trunk full of donations and unexpectedly found that a different…read morelocal thrift store was closed... It was open the past two trips I made, and I read it was supposed to be open today on Google, so I didn't call ahead... That was a mistake, even though they don't answer the phone more often than they actually DO... I really didn't want to haul everything back in the house and possibly wrestle over emotions and decision making again if the items were back in my home. After a quick Google search, I found Harvesting Capabilities. I called and they were open. According to Google, they are open 10-4 M-F with the exception of holidays such as upcoming Labor Day. I didn't get a look at the entire store but stepped in the open back door to speak with a quite friendly staff member who kindly directed me to pull up to the front of the driveway on the right of the building near the garage. She was exceptionally more pleasant than the woman on the phone and the lady who helped carry one box from the vehicle to their garage. From what I saw, the inside was packed. It seemed like a semi small shop. It is adjoined with another entity which appeared to be a medical supply with the same name of which I know nothing first hand. It appears to have once been a ranch style home, possibly a duplex. Among the items outside their front garage door on this nice day, I spotted some good deals on vintage kitchen chairs. "$3" marked out with "$4" over them. They wouldn't work for me, and since I planned on only purging today, I left empty-handed. They were definitely tempting though. The garage floor was PACKED with bags and boxes of donations. I'm not sure if that was all from today alone. That'd be insane if it were, but on the other hand, since that other place is unreliable and was abruptly closed, who knows. The concern I had was that the open dumpster out back was FILLED to the top with what appeared to be clothing. Now, I don't know if there was something wrong with those items, but it's disheartening to see all of that in the trash and not used or at least recycled. It does give me pause about the fate of the items I donated. That's out of my hands now, but it has me second guessing donating to this place again. That leads me to wonder... If they discard clothing, are there other donations in the garbage? Do they recycle the bags and boxes? I can only hope that the items I gave are sold, used, and cherished by their next owner, as some of these were highly sentimental things I really struggled over letting go. I am guessing that the thrift shop sales benefit the disabled somehow from what I had a glance at here in another review, but I'm not sure. This review could have easily been a three star or higher had it not been for that sad dumpster. Yet again, the town of Peru falls short in quality and selection as far as businesses go. This area is not the pillar of environmentalism in the least. I'm hopeful but deeply disappointed. I will be forever haunted wondering if my things are in the trash now.

    There's not a lot of turn over in merchandise. I can wait a month after shopping there, and go back…read moreto find the same stuff. The staff is friendly though. Especially Lilly.

    DON"T get the Kroger credit card, it's a scam!…read more Kroger advertised that with the credit card you would receive $0.55 back per gallon at the pump with 100 fuel points from purchases, good for a year. I received the card (issued through US Bank) and the first fill up I did receive the $1.55 off the first fill up (I had 1000 purchase points) but every subsequent fill up I only got an extra $0.05 off. Contacted the store, they referred me to US Bank. Called US Bank, they said that that wasn't an offer they were aware of. The (rather rude) customer service lady put me on hold for 5 minutes, came back on, said she would have to file a report, I should hear something in a month, and hung up. I didn't even have an opportunity to ask why I had received the discount the first fill up or say anything. Will be cancelling the card, and shopping elsewhere.

    We've been shopping here for several decades; and overall, have been satisfied with our experience…read more Not as large a selection of items as outlets in larger communities (Kokomo, Indy, etc.) offer; there is still a decent variety from which to choose here. The facility has gone through several transformations; but has stayed relatively well-maintained and clean. The quality and freshness of the produce is usually pretty good. The staff vary in responsiveness and attitude; but have generally been friendly and accommodating. We do regret the fish section closing down; having often enjoyed their offerings.(We also miss the Jarlsberg cheese spread.) We've also learned to pay attention as our items ring up, because all too often sales advertised on the aisles, have not shown up on the register. All and all though, this location is a decent enough representative for the franchise; and continues to be our go-to spot for groceries in town.

    I'm sadly not able to fill prescriptions with Walgreens anymore because of my insurance, and…read moreWalgreens doesn't have the low prices nor all the Walgreens brand items I gravitated toward for years. I miss the paper ads and coupons as well as personalized service from someone stationed in cosmetics, but this store has a lot going for it. All but one employee I have ever come across at this Walgreens have been extremely helpful and friendly. They open the second front register when the front starts to form a line. I've also checked out in the pharmacy before. Even though I'm not used to pharmacies which completely close during lunch, when they've been open, they have always been cheerfully useful regarding questions. This Walgreens location is also a local drop-off for FedEx. You just take your pre labeled packages to the photo department, and a Walgreens employee will take your info in order to text you a receipt with tracking. On my most recent visit, a most pleasant employee at the front saw me with a box and was kind enough to take care of it for me right them and there saving me time. I feel secure leaving a package in their care. This Walgreens store is always clean and fun to browse. Sometimes you can find some good deals on things like notebooks, saline nasal spray, stuffed animals, candy, locally themed t-shirts and sweatshirts... Their hair care and seasonal aisles are always worth a look. You can even find quite a few groceries here. Walgreens also still carries tobacco products unlike a certain competitor. If you like candy, take a look at what's in the display on the left side of the checkout counter for the featured specials of the month. Four stars mainly for customer service and cleanliness.

    This location continues to be a strong representative for the franchise…read more The store is clean and well-maintained; with the usual variety of items found in a drug store such as this. The staff are often welcoming, friendly and accommodating. The pharmacy is usually efficient and attentive. All and all, if one needs the services of a drug store; this facility is a solid option.
