The Homecrest Holly Hill high back swivel rocker chairs I recently purchased are "garbage" compared…read moreto the same ones I purchased 18years ago. They have change the swivel mechanism, no longer ball bearing, they manufacture sling and thick cushion only for seat covering. No lightly padded option available like my 18 yr old set. My original chairs never squeaked when you swiveled until they were about 16 yrs old. Yet these "brand new" ones squeak and groan non stop whether you are rocking or swiveling. Try to swivel the chair with your hands to move seat in another direction, NO, the swivel wont budge unless u are sitting in chair. 3 times the price and 1/3 the quality. DO NOT BUY!!!!

I have a pair of 1970 Homecrest swivel rockers that need new vinyl straps. When I searched online…read morefor a strap replacement tutorial I didn't find anything showing my specific chair frame style. As I was searching, I found the company was still in business and decided to reach out to them via their Facebook page. Within one hour I had a reply from them as well as a PDF instruction sheet showing how to replace the straps. They invited me to contact them back with any other questions and expressed interest in seeing the the completed chairs. This kind of friendly, helpful customer service is a rarity these days. Almost as rare as finding a product made in the USA. It is amazing that the chairs are still around after 50 years and just need a facelift. Quality and great customer service since 1953. Thank you Homecrest!

A friend last summer talked about this store. I saw my client in Alexandria and asked her. She…read moresaid its hit or miss, mainly overstock, etc. There were a lot of cars in the parking lot. I grabbed a basket. This store is severely cluttered, with narrow aisles for 1 shopper or cart in them. They seem to mark their products with a black sharpie. This store is enormous. It looks like a lot of Costco, dollar tree excess stuff that didn't sell. Some prices were high even, such as $24 Legos and $8.99 towels. There are a boatload of toys and clothes. I bought an ND flag, Reeses popcorn, and 2 bottles of pop. They had Glacier National Park stuffed animals and excess stuff saying Silverton, CO. Places I had not been to. This pottery was alright, but then marked with a sharpie. How dumb. This place was very similar to Gopher Bargain Center in St Cloud. Oh, there's a lot of expired Easter candy. Anyone?

There is a problem here. Recently a good friend stopped in…read moreto purchase an item. He saw a wallet on the ground in the parking lot. Being the HONEST and caring person who would go out of his way to help anyone. He picked the wallet up and took it directly into the store and gave it to the checkout person. He never opened it He simply said, I'm betting someone will be missing this. Some time later, days later I believe, he is contacted by Perham Police and accused of basically stalking this lady and watching and following her to the parking lot apparently knowing she will drop her wallet and drive away. After watching her leave. He supposedly grabs the wallet that he magically knew she would drop. Then puts it under his arm and or in his inside jacket pocket which does not exist. And without ever opening the wallet he magically removes the cash and as any thief would do, takes the wallet directly into cashier who had just seen his name on his debit card that he used to buy his item. There is security camera footage of his truck in the parking lot and I believe him picking up the wallet and heading towards the store. He did place the item he purchased under his arm briefly. There should be video of this lady entering. You would think video at the checkout ? And video of her leaving and dropping her wallet. Or maybe she left it at the checkout and whoever took the money dropped it in the parking lot. The customer was an elderly lady. It seems odd that she would have $600 in her wallet. I'm curious what she bought and what she used to pay. The fact that the wallet was on the ground in the parking lot means something happened. Did the employee that opened it for ID see a bunch of cash and snatch it ? I don't know. There again, where is the complete video ? One thing I know. Honesty and doing the right thing should not get a good man charged with a felony. The Perham Police should know better. The OTC prosecutor should know better. And The thrift store should be taking a long hard look at their staff and their security. This just WRONG !

I do believe sometimes the prices can be a tad too high on items but for the most part they are pretty fair and do mark things down if they sit more than a couple weeks.
