It seems the Serendipity Shoppe must have relocated since the reviews of a few years ago…read more Serendipity is not in the Blackrock area. It is located within the First Presbyterian Church at the corner of Wadsworth and Pennsylvania. The entrance is on Wadsworth, but there is parking available via a driveway on Pennsylvania. Additionally, there is handicap access available. If needed, call from the parking lot and one of the volunteers will come to escort you to the code-required elevator. Okay. Now that we know where Serendipity can be found, what can we expect within? At least one serendipitous find. For instance, last Saturday my daughter, just prior to attending a graduation party, found a graduation card there, obviating the need to stop again to buy a card. That could not have been more serendipitous. Okay, okay. Imagine a thrift store and an antique store got married and had a baby. Serendipity? But, of course. You won't find clothing, as a rule. Not saying never, but Amvets and Buffalo City Mission have clothes. At Serendipity you will find collectibles of myriad types, books, jewelry, lamps, dinnerware, pottery, home décor, eclectic gifts. Perhaps a hat. Possibly a shawl. Books are nicely shelved and categorized. Every other thrift store I have been in could take a lesson. I had planned to return and take some interior photos before reviewing; seeing as the location seemed to be in question from past reviews, however, I decided to post now, make the location clear, and return at some later date with more photos. The address above is correct: One Symphony circle. Phone 716-248-0232. ALL proceeds benefit people living with HIV/AIDS. Donations are always welcome -- saleable items, as well as cash. The charity is The Aids Plus Fund of WNY, a 501c non-profit. On Facebook, look for Serendipity Thrift Shoppe. Several photos there, too. And they do accept credit and debit cards, as well as cash.

It's…read morenot as picked over as more popular places like Amvets and Savers, you can still find fun and unique treasures here. They had a nice selection of vintage/70s style dresses. Prices were easy to determine as most similar styles were priced the same and a price list was posted on the wall. It could definitely benefit from a bit of organization/decluttering though. The rooms are jam packed with stuff...I was almost afraid to move in the kitchen section out of fear that I would knock some glasses off the shelf. I could barely look at the furniture because it was piled on top of each other. There is a lot to browse here! I went in August when the entire store was 10% off, but I thought the prices were fair even without the discount. They also had a small bin with free items for kids on the way out which was a nice touch. The owner seems like a very caring person as evidenced by the various collection boxes for excellent charities at the checkout counter.

Halloween costumes, imaginative getups, clothing fresh from the drycleaners or in preshrunk, prefaded condition. Toys for young and old, things to get creative and make other things with and guess what????? IT's RECYLCLING! It's environmentally friendly. Some people cannot bear the thought of buying used clothes but did you know that if you want a book to read you can get a paperback for a quarter or a hardcover for a dollar? Things out of print, ideas, music, ornaments, art, you name it is is in here at one time or another. Once upon a time the people of the earth used to consume or toss away good items into the trash but now..... the only thing that limits what you can use from this store is your imagination. I used to work for another location in the city and cannot call them a kind or generous employer, in fact there, they really stink in that department but the second hand offereings on pennies for a dollar are just waiting there to be discovered. An economical environmetally friendly place. Be nice to the staff, you might be the nicest thing they see all day!
