My heart is full. I have searched high and low, and have finally found a place where my household…read moredonations will go to a good cause. One hundred percent of the proceeds of items sold at this shop funds the Helotes Humane Society located right next door. The old house is the thrift shop. A driveway with a sign for drop off will direct you to the back of the house. A large sign is posted on the fence of items they do not accept. All the items sold at the thrift shop are well organized and labeled nicely. There are so many good finds! Lots of antiques and vintage items too. The ladies that work at the shop are very kind, friendly, and helpful. I bought a vintage knit nativity scene that I absolutely love, Christmas lights, coasters, and a tree skirt. They offer military discount on Thursday and senior discount on Friday. I had a blast at this shop and will be back. Besides the Helotes Humane society next door, there's also a small dog park behind it.

The shop is well organized, doesn't smell bad like other thrift shops I've been. The merchandise is organized and clean. They have a very good and clean bathroom and fitting room. They also hold your items at the cashier , so don't have to drag the basket around. Prices were amazing and even bought a fenton glass basket with a huge discount! We for sure will be back to this treasures filled thrift.

Lots of treasures! Easter items, jewelry, trinkets, antique furniture, clothing, a room dedicated to boots ( yes, cowboy boots!), and an outdoor area filled with furniture/pottery just to name a few.... Unfortunately, we were there near closing, but I ended up buying a cute clay chicken planter and it was an extra 20% off. Look forward to coming back to browse further : )

Well run outlet of the Salvation Army. Prices seem a tad higher here than in other stores, but…read morethere is an excellent selection of furniture and clothing. Easy-to-access location with an ample amount of parking. They will also accept donations at this location. Only negative item: There is a hard and fast policy in place where if there is no price tag on the merchandise, it will not be sold to you. Be sure to check that what you plan to buy has a tag, or you're SOL.

When it comes to thrift stores, I've always preferred Salvation Army over Goodwill. They do more…read morefor the community and typically they were cheaper however Salvation Army no longer lets you try on clothes due to theft issues. Listen people are donating their stuff to you if you're losing a couple dollars and donated stuff like come on how how much can that really be damaging you and have somebody near the Tryon section if it's really that much of an issue, but your clothes half of them don't have tags. I don't know what size I'm trying on and I'm not buying clothes that I can't try on when I asked the manager about it and asked him if I could return clothes if they didn't fit if I can't try them on because a couple of the items that I wanted to buy for an event like a costume party I was not gonna be buying if I couldn't try on and they were like jumpers and things I could not try on over my clothes. He told me just to try on over my clothes and that I could not return them if they didn't fit he also mentioned well I mean it's the same for the furniture and the shoes no, sir it's not the same. I don't need to try on furniture and also I can slip my feet into shoes. I will not be returning to Salvation Army army. I'm very upset by this. I guess Goodwill will be getting my business and I can't imagine that this is good for their business.

I was excited to go to my first uptown cheapskate. It was mid afternoon, the store had about a…read moretotal of four customers. When I walked in I wasn't greeted with a welcome or hello. There were plenty of employees behind the counter. I walked around and noticed the purses, which were very cute. Then I walked to the pant section and then the dresses section. I finally chose a dress and a pair of pants to try on. One on asked if I needed help or if I needed a dressing room. Which was very disappointing. I finally asked an employee for a dressing room. They fit but not to my liking so I looked awhile longer but didn't buy anything. I was expecting a thanks for come or come again since there was at least four people behind the counter. I'll try coming back again maybe next time the employees will be more help or cheerful.

First of all, check in at the counter and fill out some general info. They then will go through and process your clothing, and give you a quote of what they will take. Time takes about 30-60 minutes. You can peruse the store or come back later, they'll text ya when they're done. You'll receive cash or an in store credit which is approx 20% more. I've taken the cash, they don't offer a lot, but it's better than nothing! Friendly service and clean store.

As they requested, I contacted them via email with descriptions and pictures of the items I wanted to consign. I was told they would respond in a few days. So I waited over a week and called them. I was told to resend the info. She would call me to confirm. So, again I waited. The next day I called to follow up. I was told that the email was received and a response could be expected in a few hours. I NEVER HEARD BACK, no email, no phone call! I deserved some type of response. If they couldn't take it, fine....but let me know. There is no excuse for treating your customer with such disrespect! I'm not inclined to sell or buy from this business again!

The prices are about 50-70% OFF of retail, which is hard to beat. You have to move quickly because what you see is what you get, everything is consigned by everyday people or company buyouts, meaning you can't order more. This makes it a super fun treasure hunt!! The store is LOADED. The staff is super helpful and style-minded. You can also make some cash by bringing in your furniture & home decor to sell. Great selection of art, decor, foliage, even jewelry & designer handbags.
