I imagine this is for using a credit card. I am perfectly fine with a business doing this IF they let the customer know they are doing so. Had I known, I wouldn't use a credit card.

My favorites are bagged soups, turnovers, cinnamon rolls and pies. They also have a huge selection of party items such as plates, napkins and cutlery. The staff is generally pleasant and they are well stocked on their items. They have loads more on their website that can be purchased. You can call ahead and they will get it out of the warehouse and have it ready for you. This is also my go to place to buy Pasquales frozen pizza.

NWT Consignment, while it doesn't seem to have as many "new with tags" items as I expected, is…read morestill a good consignment store. I'm in love with their Facebook/Craigslist drop-off exchange service! You can find some pretty good deals here - but you'll probably have to be careful as some of their items seem more expensive than necessary. PROS: -Facebook/Craigslist item drop-off is pretty amazing. Selling something online? Come in here, drop off your item along with $1, and they'll hold the item and allow the other person to pick up the item at the other person's leisure (and they'll collect the money for you + $1 extra dollar from the second person for the service). No trying to arrange suitable times between two people. No meeting in front of random stores to "make the exchange". They'll do it for you, and they only charge $2 - which is split between the two people. -Friendly service. There was a woman that greeted us when we walked in, let us know to ask her if we had any questions. Another woman asked her for help, and she went around and showed the woman all of the shirts she knew of that fit her request. She wasn't pushy, but she was friendly and around to help - and she was happy to answer my questions too. -Nothing seemed to smell like smoke or have pet hair on it. The building itself has a bit of a musky smell to it, but you get used to it within minutes. -Good sales. When we came here, everything (outside of wedding dresses, designer purses, and such) was $10 each. This discounted a lot of the prices within the shop to see well-within reach for consignment items. -Large variety of items. There's jewelry here, everyday clothes, business clothes, men's/women's/children's clothes, wedding dresses, shoes/heels/boots, prom-type dresses, furniture, and some industrial-type building supplies in the back. There are designer and non-designer purses too. They also have men's suits and shoes. -They offer layaway. I imagine this is for their big-ticket items (like wedding dresses) and less-so for their $5 jewelry rack. CONS: -Regular, everyday prices do seem a bit high. $30 for a non-brand name dress at a consignment store is a bit intense - and that seemed to be a standard price for some of it. That being said, they do have regular sales - and it seems like the pricing really does seem to vary by item. I found $5 sweat pants that I thought about walking home with. You can find some good deals if you look around. -It doesn't seem like everything here is new/unworn. I'm not sure what the estimate would be, but especially with shoes, there's a whole lot of wearing on many of the treads. -Organization isn't great among some of the racks. There are different areas for Small/Medium/Large/XLarge/Plus, but pants/skirts/dresses/shirts seem to be mixed in along each rack. The plus-size rack seemed to vary sizes from 14 all the way up to 28, and all of those were all sorts of mixed up too.

I recently bought a gift only to find that the zipper had teeth missing. I called immediately and left a message. I received no response for four days. When I went in to the store to ask about it, I was shown a small sign about six inches above the floor, hidden behind a shirt saying no returns. When I asked why no one had called back the owner got very abusive. Buy at your own risk.

Up to four stars for the store itself. I went here to buy some items, and it's actually a pretty…read moregood experience. Prices are very reasonable (usually under $10 for almost anything that I looked at). Most of the items I looked at were in surprisingly great condition and mostly modern-looking items. Nothing looked like it was out of the 90s. Some of the items had hidden tears or holes. They weren't marked down for that, so I'm unsure if the store knew that they were damaged when purchasing the items initially. Women's sizes go up to XL, but men's will go up to 3XL. They do carry a couple of odds-and-ends plus-size items for females, though. Everything is very well organized. Amazingly so. Items are organized by type (mini skirt, top, athletic top, denim, colored denim, etc.), then by size (S, M, L, or XL), and THEN by color. So you can go to the athletic tops to find a Medium top in pink. It's honestly an amazing way to shop if you had something particular in mind for what you wanted to purchase. My selling experience still stands as a pretty poor experience, but purchasing is much, much nicer experience. Check-out went pretty smoothly and was relatively fast. They accept credit cards as well.

I do not recommend a single soul to shop at this store. They do not care about their customers or…read moreloyalty to their customers. I have been selling to Plato's closet for over a decade. I've never stolen from the business nor have I been rude to any of the employees. However, when I came to the business today, I was told that I was not allowed to sell anything to them because I was "flagged" in their system. When I asked why I was flagged from the system because I had never been notified of any wrong doing. The girl at the counter LOUDLY suggested I had stolen or been disrespectful. This was not a private conversation whatsoever and was handled very disrespectfully. I get the employees are younger girls, but this seems to be a business filled with gossip and toxic negative behavior. So then I asked to talk to someone who is a manager she said to call the store. So I called the store and there's no way to get a hold of an actual person. This business is ran by mean girls. This does not look good on the business and makes it less profitable. I was someone who continuously went to Plato's closet and purchased many items. Like I said, I've pretty much paid rent at this business with how many things I've purchased over the years. Since I am flagged for unknown reasons that were never communicated with me. I will not be spending another dollar here. I felt like I was humiliated for something that was completely out of my control. I have never stolen or be rude with an employee. You really can get flagged for absolutely no reason. It is really disappointing because I did enjoy looking at their clothes. However, now I will recommend no one to step foot in this store.

Some of my favorites are makeup sponges, dental floss picks, hairspray, vinegar, toilet bowl cleaner, disposable plastic food containers, plastic forks/spoons etc. I go here a lot for work to grab inexpensive breakroom supplies, fun decorations for our breakroom, super glue, office supplies like push pins and rulers, magic erasers etc. It's not about being cheap to shop here. It will save you money on things you buy anyways.

For your nerdy subculture things, The Core was pretty much the only store available in the entire…read moreCedar Valley area for awhile. Now there's another comic book store, but this one still reigns supreme in terms of selection available. The Core sells tabletop gaming items for Star Trek, Warhammer, Star Wars, and others. It has a huge selection of comic books (it takes up most of the store). For people like myself, it also sells adorable things like the neat Pop! toys as well as more serious (and expensive!) collector's figurines. They also have a huge selection of Magic The Gathering cards, and you can purchase by individual cards as well. They also have a small selection of snacks and other items available for purchase. Along with that, The Core has playing tables as well. When I stopped in, it was Friday Night Magic. I'll also say that, out of the 25-ish people in the store, I was the only female, and it was slightly off-setting (though I'm used to it in this type of store). Their Friday Night Magic was pretty active, though, so it looked like a lot of people to play with. I picked up a Star Trek game, and prices were fair. It was only a dollar more than Amazon, and for that, I'm happy to support local business. Store interior decor (and exterior) is a bit drab. There's literally merchandise on every available surface of the store. There's a huge selection, but it doesn't strike you as a "fancy" place or anything. It's well kept-up, but it doesn't seem to go out of its way to be nice. Employee was friendly enough while checking out. Didn't demean or talk down to me because I'm a female. He seemed a bit bored with his job (or maybe busy since it was so packed), but I have no complaints. Final thoughts: It's not as amazing as nerd stores you can find in larger cities (such as Ames), but this is pretty much the best you'll get in the Cedar Valley area - and it's not a bad store. They have a decent selection of nerd things, and they have events for those that like to gather and nerd out. As an odd note, though, I'm not sure I've ever seen any bathrooms here, so it may require leaving the building and going somewhere else for that.
