MY EXPERIENCE: I've been coming for years. Back when the Target donations where in the basement, and the used donations where on the upper level. Back then the Target items were priced extremely cheap. I recall getting a wicker patio set for $50 total; bistro table and two folding chairs. These days I find that the Target items, especially furniture, are priced rather "high." For example, I bought a deep fryer for $30, regular price online showed $49.99. I mean, I'm happy to save a buck, but the savings are as impressive. Thankfully I'm in my vintage era for home decor. While I know thrift store inventory can be hit or miss, for me it's been more "miss" lately. I visit often, and often leave empty handed due to not finding anything interesting and/or shelves being sparce. Nevertheless, I continue to patron because you never know when it'll turn into a good shopping day.

When I asked about it, the manager refused to refund the $0.54 and told me to "just find something for that price." That was awkward since I couldn't just grab an item and walk out, and nothing costs that little anyway. They shouldn't be charging tax on clothing, and most people probably don't realize it. This should really be looked into by the Minnesota Department of Revenue.

The staff pay attention and quickly try to solve issues over pricing or repair repairs. A real rockstar organization. And... That takes nothing away from either the restore stores of Habitat for Humanity or Goodwill. I love them all. It's so much better than buying retail or sending stuff to the dump! It's interesting how much that whole industry has grown and thrived. There's so much more potential to grabbing old stuff and repurposing it or simply reselling as is or recycling, the recyclable parts, etc. Let's change the all to ovftem economic garbage machine to raising up the whole world!

Rolls her eyes and walks away. A few minutes later someone else had asked how much the same chair was and the same worker tells her to pick a fair price. The lady paid for the chair and walks out with it. I walked up to see if I could see the employees name tag . The name on her tag says Sheree store manager. I will not stop at this store ever again unless that Rude store manager gets fired she has no skills to be in this position Unreal

I found the inventory to be a bit smaller than stores like Salvation Army Store and Savers. LThat…read moresaid there are still lots of pros. - Lots of vintage decor. Upon entering you'll find of a variety of vintage items (not just second hand) to the left of registers. There were jugs, soda bottles, spice jars, figurines, and more. - If you're looking for Christian books, or audio, there are lots. What I like about the book session is that everything is shelved in alphabetical order. I don't see that at other second hand stores. -Speaking of books there's a small section of vintage books. Whether you're looking for something to read or just to use as decor. Many are pretty, leather bound, and with metallic ink on the spine. -There was a good selection of lamps and furniture, but the home decor section was a little basic. I didn't check out the clothes. A big con for me was how narrow the aisle are. There's no way to pass someone with a cart, if you happen to have one as well. I would definitely return. If you're looking to have a day of shopping, Arc Value Village and Unique Thrift aren't far.

Sure, it's a little dirty and not as clean as other places but there are so many things to be found! They also always seem to be short staffed at every location - I have walked out before instead of standing in line to buy one item I didn't need - but I am not complaining, I get it! They always have a ton of furniture and clothes. Sometimes you can find salvaged goods that are new but I don't see that sort of stuff at the Fridley location as often.
