This visit I was returning merchandise, but found a really cute clutch on sale for $7.99 and a random pack of Kleenex 8 pack pocket tissue for 2 bucks. The men's section looked fully stocked and had a much better selection of shoes than women's. The store was packed with merchandise for the most part. They have a really nice plus size section. They need help in the dress department. They have a small home-goods section which some cool pieces. The clearance rack was full, with an abundance of mostly boring sweaters. They entice you with candy and sweets in the check out line. There was only one cashier working the register, but she was quick and efficient. Security is very active at this location, as stated in previous reviews. My only complaint is that it's located in a super, dicey area of town, be vigilant. Not a place I would go often, but definitely a hidden gem.....during daylight hours.

It has all of the furniture and patio furniture from closed Big Lots in Alexandria. Lots of furniture. Last year in May, the Alexander is store sold out of patio sets. I rely on Big Lots for inexpensive paper towels, toilet paper, soap, pet supplies and food, coffee, and weird items. They have a great toy selection, too. You have to dig but it's there. The store is well organized and pretty clean. I've been in some Big Lots where things are on the floor and the shelves are messy. The staff was very helpful. The cashier in early May added another coupon to the one that I brought. Great customer service. I drove out to the Waldorf store once. It was okay but the parking lot was kind of sketchy. The shopping center is right off the Beltway. It has a lot of great stores including Aldi next door. Lots of parking. Recommend.

I continue to be impressed with 2nd Ave. thrift superstores as I've been to a few. They are…read moreconsistent in what you will experience. 1) scent: really have I experienced that thrift store smell whenever I go into a 2nd Ave. thrift store. This one is the same. So they get four stars for that. 2) selection: the store was well stocked, and I found a few things I was looking for and a few things I wasn't but realize I needed 3) size: I called is a superstore, but compared to the store tomorrow it's about half the size. It wasn't as small as some of the Goodwills but I don't know that I would call it a superstore. 4) prices: as 2nd Ave. always does. There are two colors that were 50% off so if you can find those you'll get some great deals. Otherwise the prices were decent. It seems as though many thrift stores have raised their prices, but I wouldn't say the prices were outrageous or unreasonable. 5) location: it was relatively easy to find, and had a sufficient amount of parking. 6) service: I appreciate the self check out that they offer. And the staff was responsive and helpful when I was looking for a couple of items in the store. Overall, this is absolutely worth a stop, and I will likely be back.

My first time visiting 2nd Avenue Thrift on Allentown Road was such a disappointment. I was taken…read moreaback, turned off, and shocked by the prices of the items in this THRIFT store. I couldn't believe what I was seeing. The prices at this store reminded me of my good decision to stop donating to thrift stores. I have now started donating ONLY to centers and facilities that TRULY help their communities, and therefore ALL of the items that I donate are free to their customers. The organizations that I now donate to are strictly geared towards helping true low income and less fortunate. The prices at the store are the prices that you would find in regular store AND intentional high priced stores. This store receives donations FOR FREE, AT NO COST TO THEM, AND YET THEIR PRICES ARE MERELY A DISHONEST RACKET. It was very disappointing to see that this store is obviously run by persons who seek to profit excessively and exceedingly from the kindness and generosity of others. I should NEVER see art work at any thrift store for $129.00 that is not the authentic art work of Picasso. I should NEVER see a water jug for $124.00 , even a large one. I should never see a cat sculpture for $69.00. I should never see an 8x10 picture frame for 9.99 (this is the same amount that I would pay at a store for a brand NEW frame). I should never see cookware for $34.00. As I walked through this thrift store, my shock progressed to disgust. This store truly needs to be regulated. Their prices are unheard of when it comes to a thrift store. This particular thrift store truly needs to be investigated and regulated. I can't support dishonesty and mere greed. There are other thrift stores that do have prices that are too high for a store that receives all of their items for free, but I've never been to even ONE, that demonstrates this level of GREED. Shame on 2nd Avenue Thrift Store on Allentown Road. Shame, Shame, Shame on them. ‍‍‍‍

Most of the clothin' store workers are women, and they are always nice. A little too flirtatious just to make a sale. Which isn't all that bad because most are gorgeous. But yeah 2/3 out of 5.

Registers were backed up like usual for a Dollar tree. However, the guy running the register was very efficient.
