Wow, this place is huge!…read more Trying to furnish your new home on the cheap? This "re-store" is the place to do it. Whether you need a new couch, coffee table, window, or toilet seat, this thrift store is so much more. It also serves as as a builder close out, so they actually have a lot of building materials if your home upgrading is a little more handy-man than my hang-some-cool-artwork method. As Janet mentioned, they do know what their stuff is worth, so on the furniture end, you probably won't walk away with any amazing bargains. But for reasonably priced second hand furniture with a huge selection to chose from, this is the place to go. And, all the proceeds go to Habitat for Humanity, how cool is that? Something to keep an eye out for: At least once a year they have a huge sale where everything in the store is 50%, so keep an eye out for that ton really get those good bargains!

You'd probably need to ask for help with them because they are difficult to get to and look at since it's all stacked on top of each other and behind other furniture. They also have some fabric and books, but not nearly the quantity they used to. Lots of electronics and dishes, cups if you need any of that! Masks are required and they have Lysol wipes and hand sanitizer at the entrance. There is a sign saying you must have a cart with you in order to control how many people can come in, but it wasn't enforced at all.

Great store. The best thrift in Gainesville…read more Customer service is iffy. A lovely pregnant woman helped me with my transaction and was so kind and helpful. My mom was not so lucky. A heavily-tattooed and pierced woman cashed out my mom, and she could not have been more rude. There were many items my mom had found that did not have price tags, so we brought them up to get price checks before purchasing. We noticed she was a bit on edge from the start, and tried to lighten the mood by paying her a compliment on her glasses. This did us no good. She went on to insinuate that we had taken off the price tags to try and get lower prices. Are you serious? Believe me, we want to know the prices just as much as anyone else, and we gladly put things back that we do not feel are worth the price. She treated us as an inconvenience to her the whole time. And when the lady picked a price for one of the tag-less items, my mom suggested a lower price telling her that it would need to be repaired, and she said with a laugh "I mean, I don't know what to tell you, it's a thrift store." We had had such a delightful experience up to that point, spending nearly two hours on a treasure hunt, and each of us purchased an entire cart of things. This lady almost ruined our experience. I will definitely be back, but now I know who to steer clear of.

In this case, I went here to donate leftover imported tile (had a ton of different styles from past renovations) and I gotta say the guys helping me were amazing. Danny was the one who helped me unload my car and was just as nice as he could be. The process of donating was super-easy, too; much better than Goodwill which can be a chore sometimes. After donating and having a great experience I popped in the thrift store and purchased a few mirrors. all in all a great experience and Atlanta should be proud that Habitat and ReStore call our city home.

I've been trying to visit this particular Habitat ReStore location for quite a while. Due to odd…read morestore hours and general difficulty getting there mid-week before they close, I have never been able to go. My husband and I finally found an early Saturday afternoon to visit. I have always loved the mission of Habitat and appreciate that they try to put these second-hand stores in developing/historic communities (Reynoldstown in this case). As soon as you walk into the store, you are welcomed by an array of beautiful furniture at the front. Honestly, if I had the money, there was a gorgeous, custom bench that would have gone home with me that day lol. The store was very well organized and laid out, making it a pleasant shopping experience. My biggest qualm with the store are some of the prices!! It's like, I would find perfect treasures throughout- $1 for gorgeous mugs, $2 for brand new planters, and some fixtures for the fraction of the price found in conventional stores. But then, you also find ridiculous pricing on items like used rugs costing over $200 or other furniture costing well over $1,000. Now in fairness, I understand that some of these items may have come directly from another retailer as "almost new", but we're still talking about donated goods. This does not deter me from coming back, it just makes me pay attention to the types of items I would probably purchase vs. ones I would get elsewhere. Overall, I enjoyed my first visit and hope to get back soon.

It used to be Hancock Fabrics. Now I will be forthright and let you know this is a no frills place. Of course you shouldn't expect money to be spent on lighting or other bric-a-brac when the business is an extension of Habitat for Humanity (a non-profit). What sets this store apart from others is after you venture through the usual stuff (furniture, books, CD's, glasses, etc.), the other half is focused on home repairs/supplies. There are washers and dryers here, but also vents and pipes and bolts and a number of items you might need to fix and/or add on to the home. The pricing across the board is amazing. That day I walked out with a office chair (see the uploaded picture) for only $5. It is gently used and is very comfortable. Stop in today and remember, every purchase supports Habitat for Humanity. *Insider's Tip -Take the time to comb through the CD's and tapes. There are some classics in there, most for only $1.

They teach people "how to fish" (self reliance) so they can have long term success. I volunteer every so often, yet in reality I am the one who is always grateful to be able to learn on house build days from the house leaders on "how to"... painting being my favorite as I go into a meditative state when doing detailed work. Not interested in construction or physical labor... no problem. I like to volunteer/ have my hands on many different things myself, and this place can offer that. If you like sales or cleaning volunteer at the warehouse. You like photography? Sign up for house dedication. On weekdays want to help doing office work or help on weekends signing up folks into their home ownership required classes? Love finance, numbers or plain teaching? Sign up.
