    50% off at goodwill ypsilanti on a saturday afternoon!

    The customer service was very friendly. Personally the store was too cramped for me. The clothing selection for men, women, and kids selection was pretty okay by my standards. The knick knacks and decorations supply was low. I came here specifically for secondhand toys, alas I almost couldn't find any. There was a bin of plushies and a few board games. The rest was mediocre baby toys.

    This is OBNOXIOUS. You don't need to go through every donation. You guys are a for profit company either take the donations and toss what you don't sell or don't take any at all.

    I bought one item, the cashier was really rude and seemed to not even want to be there. Don't get me wrong we all hate working at retail but my f ** king gwad he was rude. I simply asked if l could keep the hanger cause I'm broke af and he opened his eyes wide and stared at me like I was the biggest dumbass in the world and shook his head. Sorry I'm poor. Also l'm just using an image from google so everyone knows it's the same place.

    I give it five stars solely because the workers appear to be taking care of some feral cats behind the store. Good work!

    They have friendly staff and mostly good prices. Books are over priced in my opinion, but mostly it's ok. I've never left empty handed!

    This thrift store just opened today in the heart of depot town, Ypsilanti. The couple who owns it…read moreare going to use all the proceeds to help those in need in the area. In fact, in front of the cash register there are free items such as health and beauty products, socks, and non perishable foods. These are free to anyone. I was at the front door today when the opened and the owner was excited to greet us all and walk us inside. There are two sides to the shop. Inside the door is the decorative things and kitchen items. Along with the cash register. The other side of the store has clothing, shoes, games and puzzles. Clothing is sorted by color in men's, women's, and children. There is also a fitting/storage room to try on clothing. I love this!!! I spent quite some time in here because it seemed like I was always seeing something new. Be sure to look on the walls and window displays. I found some of my favorite finds in the windows. I'm so excited about this new thrift store. The owner said they will constantly be putting out new things so that makes me want to park it there. Lol If you love thrift shopping, be sure to check out The Thrift Depot. There is some parking behind the building and a parking lot just to the west of the building. The road is closed in front of the restaurants right now to provide outdoor seating. Blessings to the owners of The Thrift Depot. Thank you for caring for others and living your dream!!

    We absolutely love Dear Golden! The staff is uplifting and shows you things you wouldn't normally…read morego for. The array and variety of brands and vintage, is to die for! I could spend an entire day here. I wish they were open Monday's as that is my day off but... always come down on weekends when I can. I emailed the owner looking for a dress I had previously tried on in store and she had it available and ready online to purchase immediately! That timing was rare and special! I received it four days later! All the reviews about staff being snobby.... I don't understand at all. My partner and I travel to different shops such as this across the US and collect unique items... there are snobby people but dear golden... they aren't them. People reviewing saying they are, now that sounds snobby. I wish dear golden all the best and can't wait to return.

    The reason I am posting this review on Yelp is specifically because of the response my Google…read morereview got (see attached screenshot). I kind of expected ridiculously high prices, it is Ann Arbor after all, but these prices were absurd. What I don't expect is to be ridiculed by the owner because of a simple spelling mistake. Like I said, thier priorities are backwards with no attempt to rectify the situation, only to make it worse after the fact online. I wish I could get paid to sit on my butt all day and ignore customers. At least I was greeted by a lady yelling from the back, but that is considered the bare minimum, just as another 1 star review is. If I could give 0 I would especially now after realizing this is how they respond to potential customers. I will never go back. The vulgar music that was being played throughout the store was my biggest concern at the time, but now it has shifted to the way they responded to me online. If you must buy from them (still way overpriced, I don't know why you would) order from etsy and don't subject yourself to being ignored and annoyed by incompetent store staff. After reading some of these other reviews here I am certain they had to deal with this same person, and it was probably the same person who made the condescending reply to my first review (see picture). I have a hunch that most of these 5 star reviews are either from the staff themselves trying to counter the honest ones or by someone who didn't have to deal with the lack of customer service that I experienced. If you're the owner of the place and you are reading this, please reconsider who you choose to be the face of the store, they are driving your customers away. If in fact the owner was the only one in the store today, and the subject of all the other 1 star reviews here, I would recommend closing your store and finding a new line of business because you are clearly not equipped customer service.

    Small but charming vintage and antiques shop on the super cute Cross St in Ypsilanti's historic…read moredepot town. Stopped in while walking off a heavy lunch nearby, and had fun browsing the nooks and crannies. It looks very small when you first walk in, but they make good use of every bit of space and fit a lot of items in. I mostly liked looking at the clothing and jewelry. While I didn't end up buying anything, I was glad I stopped in. Personally, given the small size, I probably wouldn't make a trip just for this store, but it's a nice option to pop into when already in the area.

    I was looking for some 1920s accessories and the man working at Fantasy Attic recommended I go to…read moreApple Annie's (aka Jim MacDonald's). I was reluctant to visit. Why? Two things you should know about me: 15 years later I still look like a teen and wear cut-off gloves, and, I have the ballerina's grace of a bull in a china shop. This pretty much bars me from any antique store explorations. So when I hear "antique" in the name, I automatically think I'll be unwelcome. Apple Annie's turned all my expectations right on their noggin'. The two women working here are magnificent. They immediately welcomed us. I browsed without feeing judged or patrolled. The place itself is cozy without feeling cluttered - the walls are a warm yellow. Please forgive my photographs because they don't do any justice to the beauty of the merchandise or the layout of the store. They have everything from civil war era items to stuff from the 1980s - prices range from a couple bucks to $500+. There are books to dvds to clothing to shoes to jewelry to glasses to postcards to furniture. I find things to be VERY reasonably priced. Many times I've picked up items, flipped them around expecting a cost I can't afford, and then being very pleasantly surprised to see that I can! Although I had the genuine intent of buying a fur cape and thus tried many on, Linda and Lynn (they even introduced themselves later!) didn't seem at all concerned whether or not I was going to actually buy something. This I liked a lot. Unfortunately, the piece I fell in love with was way out my price range (justly so). I am, however, already musing on how I can save up money for the buy in the future. A truly superb collection of hand-selected objects with wonderful shopkeepers. I come here to see what's new (nice things get snagged mighty quick so don't sleep!) and pretty much anytime I need a gift for any friend who appreciates old beautiful things. What a treasure trove.
