I used to volunteer here when I was younger and I will admit that some aspects of thrift shops can…read morebe kind of gross, but you run as much of a risk getting another person's germs on you when you try on something in a high-end department store as you do when you purchase something in a second-hand shop, so I'm not too worried about it. I wouldn't get a swimsuit or underwear here, but as long as you have a functional washer and dryer waiting for your new purchases, you should be fine. Things here are ridiculously cheap and some days, they run half-off specials that you don't even know about until you get to the register. I got like three ugly Christmas sweaters and a mug and a dumb statue and honest-to-god Uggs (this was 2009, don't judge) for under $10 once. Not even kidding. I was in here with my moother last summer and got a bunch of old mom jeans to turn into high-waisted shorts, too, and they turned out super adorable and cost me about 1/20th of what my friends here are paying for theirs. While waiting to check out, I found a makeup primer in a ten-cent bin and it was the best primer I ever bought. Honestly, this place turns out miracles. Lots of random old stuff in the back right corner and if I remember correctly, a bunch of books downstairs, too. All kinds of cool jewelry in the display case, as well. You'll get some weird junk every once in a while and at times you'll interact with some *interesting* characters who are also shopping in the store, but that is thrifting for you.

**June 2025: Thursday Afternoon Visit**…read more This is a pretty large charity shop that carries a good assortment of pretty much everything. I do think the items here tend to lean more conservative/vintage etc but there are surely gems to be found. During my visit there was a sale for 50% off Linens which was kind of crazy because their original price is already really affordable. I was looking for towels/blankets to help cushion some my heavier and more fragile purchases that I made and I picked up the three hand knitted blankets for $6. I can't even get yarn for $6 let alone have a finished product. This was definitely a more sustainable way to ensure my fragile souvenirs could get back home safely and I think was cheaper than buying bubble wrap. Prices in this shop are inexpensive compared to California Thrift shops so I think it's worth a look!

When an employee overheard me telling my friend about it she got highly agitated and suggested that I volunteer at the store right there and then! Nice store with a very bitchy employee.

I absolutely love this shop. It has all sorts of interesting pieces, vintage goods, and…read morememorabilia. I always come here to look for vintage lighters, watches, and antique pharmacy paraphernia. They also have different sections for different sellers so theres all sorts of different types of things. They're sometimes willing to haggle on the price if the seller is willing to, but I would say that most of these items are a steal for the asking prices. The woman who is always behind the counter is very nice as well. I absolutely recommend checking this place out whether you live in Bismarck and have never been or are just visiting and are interested in vintage and antique items! Also regarding the negative reviews I do not believe that lady works there anymore; Ive never seen a woman like that there and Ive had nothing but a grear experience with the woman who does.
