I decided to give this a place a visit just because I saw a pop up when I was looking for a nearby…read morebin store. I was excited because it seemed like they had quite a variety of different things. After walking around the store, I realize that most of the items are very overpriced for a discount retailer. Some items are retailing for higher than the prices that you would see at your local superstore. One item if you look at my picture is a Nerf toy, which is somehow retailing for more than the MSRP, unless I'm reading the labels in reverse, but you can look for yourself. It's kind of interesting seeing what comes through the shop however with these very high prices, it's very hard to find anything. That's a good deal. As others mention, most of the food is expired, which should net a heavy discount, but I don't see it reflected in the prices. If you're looking for someplace to walk around, this is a great place to cruise, but I don't think there's a lot of of good hidden deals here to be found.

Amazing deals, and fun place to check out and get some early Christmas shopping done. As in any store, you just need to know pricing on items, and what your looking for, especially nowadays. Overall, grateful I had a chance to stop by this past Saturday October 19, 2024. From toys, books, housewares, health & beauty, Christmas, Halloween seasonal, something for everyone. Be sure to check this place out, as locals know, its only open for a short period of time. So if your in from out of town visiting, like I was its worth the experience. Loved the kindness, helpfulness of all staff that I had the pleasure to speak with and ask questions. Interesting tip: The nice lady at the door, where you walk in, and provide you with a clean cart, and entry drawing mentioned; how Darlington does warehouse shopping throughout the year, prior to open this location.

It is a surplus store so yes, there are some food items that are slightly expired. However, most of the time these items are still safe to use or consume. They have a variety of different things that you find they have been cleared out of inventory at box stores. Overall, if you go in with a lowered expectation, you'll actually have a fun shopping experience. For example, on my first visit, I found violin strings that were selling for two dollar a box when they normally run $20. Now I have enough violin strings that will last until they finish playing musical instruments.

I found a tie-dye navy blue and gray sweatshirt here that I've been wearing for years. On my most recent visit, I got a long, whimsical kelly green skirt that's perfect for summer. The shop also sells hats, candles, and jewelry. What I enjoy most about shopping here is interacting with the staff. They are friendly but not overbearing, and very helpful. I liked their previous store location, and love their (somewhat) new location on The Landing. Across from the home décor store and next to a restaurant, The Urban Hippie's namesake fits in perfectly with this trendy area of Downtown Fort Wayne.

They have also had some really cute and functional face masks here during the height of the pandemic. I purchased a couple COIN 1804 masks from them and those turned out to be my favorite ones. The Find also stocks some Fort Wayne themed items like magnets that say "Fort Wayne: It's not that bad," and postcards with drawings of downtown. Regardless of the reason I visit The Find, I usually also end up purchasing greeting cards here too. They have some cute ones for every occasion.
