Do you want to save money, or donate some items while supporting survivors of domestic violence &…read moresexual assault? Then read on. This was my first visit to Penny Wise Thrift even though I've driven past many times. I was surprised at the openness of this very well-lite area and size of the building. Everything was clean and everything was in it's place. No piles of items laying around. The store has plenty of isle room to browse between the various areas. It doesn't feel cramped, dark, dirty and claustrophobic like many thrift stores. The furniture, including sofas and dressers, chests, tables and chairs to name a few are located to the right as you enter. I found several pieces that would make a nice project. Houseware and home decor are located almost in center of store with lots of variety to select from. Clean glassware, home decor and more are easily accessible on large open sided shelves. Several racks of shoes, some still with tags on, were shelved and organized well. I found a decent amount of purses with many slightly used and a few looking new. The everyday clothing was clean, in good condition, organized well and made browsing quick and simple. All of the jean's are grouped together by size and so affordable. If you are a thrifter who enjoys searching for formal wear and wedding dresses then pop in here. The selection was impressive, excellent condition on the pieces I pulled out and unbelievable prices. Several people were trying on dresses while I was there. I can understand why this store had a steady pace of customers walking through the door. Clean, organzied well, nice selection, reasonable prices and arranged for browsing. I'll be back since the inventory changes daily. I almost forgot to share the most important information! Donation and store sales helps bring healing & hope to survivors of domestic violence & sexual assault. When you donate to a PennyWise Store you directly support their work in two ways: Providing families with clothing, furniture and household goods to help them start new, violence-free lives and by helping PennyWise provide a quality, reasonably priced product to the community. When they sell the rest of these donated goods in the stores, that money is directed back into funding their life-saving programs. Stop in!

The selection of furniture was good. Prices too expensive for such old products. Men's selection…read morewas horrible. Too much ladies stuff. $20 is too much for a pair of ragged shoes. There was one person to check everyone out and she moved slower than molasses. She should've been at home watching her great grandchildren instead of being at work.

I came in earlier to sell a bag of clothes and two pairs of shoes (they had their own separate…read morebag). I was quoted 20 minutes on the wait time but it ended up being over 30 minutes, which is fine except another buyer came in after me and their buy was completed before mine. I only sold one item for $8, which doesn't make any sense because I have name brand items and they are in better and cleaner condition compared to what's in store. Like I said, I probably will not do any selling or buying anytime soon because the integrity and value of this place has really gone down in the last year and a half or so. One of the items I saw on the floor today was a Lululemon workout top for $28 and the biggest problem was that it had a giant stain on it. Granted, you should wash any items you thrift, but it shouldn't be sold on the floor in a dirty condition and for $28. Crazy! Save your time, money, and/or items to sell and go elsewhere unless/until this store location shapes up again and realizes true value and integrity for its items and what's sold in store.

And for a cheapskate thrift fanatic that's all I could ask for. Staff are pleasant and sweet.

The boutique got a little bit of everything for everyone. The location of the store was strange and I drove right pass it without noticing it until my GPS told me that I passed it. But then again I am new to the area. The old building gives the boutique a reminiscent of old times, very nostalgic. The boutique reminds me of the movie Somewhere in Times. Strangely familiar and I can't quite understand what drawn me to it but I will definitely come back for another visit. Perhaps next time I will come alone so I don't feel rush. Overall it was a great experience.

The actual gift shop does not charge an entrance fee. They do advertise and charge people an entrance fee when they have their craft fairs. The gift shop itself is actually a converted house. The employees are very nice and helpful. The Red Potato has a lot of every day gifts as well as seasonal stuff. They have items you probably won't find in the mall. The best deal we found was a Lenox cake/knife set we used for our daughter's wedding. It was a really good price. It's a drive out for most, but it's not a bad drive.

My wife was needing surgery for her cancer and we were there waiting for that. Unfortunately the surgery got canceled and we had to go back home. Also it's very very unfortunate that so many people are needing this type of environment and support for the situations they're in and the availability to get back into the Ballard House after the hospital rescheduled her surgery was mute. No vacancies. It's so sad that SO many people are hurting and need this service. Unfortunately I'm recommending The Ballard House for anyone who needs it because it's a wonderful place to stay. I say unfortunately because I'm in need of a place to stay for the next two weeks and I'm having to look elsewhere than the Ballard House to stay. Love this place and the Volunteers are a God sent.
