Hometown thrift is one of the most reasonable resell shops. Really great for vintage furniture. Do stop by if you are in the area.

My husband and I have been waiting for furniture from a very popular company for over two months…read moreand just heard it could take another two months. We came across Community Furnishings and checked out their website to which showed almost exactly the same sectional so we visited their showroom, made the purchase, and had it delivered the same day! We couldn't say enough about not only how easy the entire purchase was, but the customer service everyone exuded was way above any expectations I initially had. This company was so determined to deliver my furniture to me today that the owner delivered it himself. Now that was impressive! They definitely have me as a loyal and repeat customer and I will be telling everyone I can about the awesome experience I had with Community Furnishings. Keep up the great work all!!!!!

I went to this establishment to purchase a bunk bed set for my twin boys. I was told there was a…read morepossibility for delivery on Tuesday cause it was only three scheduled deliveries. So the delivery didn't come I chalked it up and said it would be delivered Wednesday got a call from the friendly young lady at desk saying they would be there in five mins I rush home thirty mins later I get a call saying the driver was on his way to my house and collapsed in the parking lot. I drove up there cause I live two mins away walk in and there is the driver sitting in the chair drunk as a skunk. Mind you this guy was suppose to assemble my kids bunk bed.

This place causes me so much trouble. I literally live down the street from it and pass it whenever…read moreI go to the grocery store. They always have things set outside for sale when they're open, and I always find myself rubber necking as I pass by. I really am afraid that I'll cause an accident while passing by. I've made a policy to not take money with me when I go there because I'll spend way too much. I can do this because if I decide I do want to buy something, I can hurry home and come back with the cash. As some others have said, they can be a bit pricey on some things. However, there is a system. If something just comes in, the price will be a bit higher. The longer it sits there, the more they'll mark it down. Also, if it's been there a while, they're more inclined to haggle. Go in with a great attitude and they will give you a better deal. Go in with a crappy attitude, they won't be so inclined to haggle. Just be warned, if it's brand new to the shop, they won't haggle as much. If you buy a bunch of things all at once, they'll often give you a price for the whole lot which saves you money. I have found some real gems in the store. I've bought an entire set of vintage dishes for my house. I had a tea party for my daughter and got a tea set made in England and vintage, lace table linens for a very reasonable price. I've bought two solid wood desks there. Tomorrow, I'm having an 1950's china cabinet delivered to my house (They do deliver locally, for a price.) This lovely piece is in pristine condition with huge, glass sliding doors, which is why I'm having it delivered. The price on it was a steal. I found it before it was even tagged and will make a great addition to my 1950's built home. I could list all of the wonderful things I've found there but you really need to go yourself. You can easily pass an hour or two there without even knowing the time has passed. So make sure you set aside a good amount of time to look. With a little bit of time, you could actually furnish your house with vintage furniture, dishes and the like for a fraction of the cost of what you would buy new. The older stuff has so much more character and the things I've bought have been solid wood. Not pressed particle board. This is truly a Hammond treasure. You city people would be smart to come and take a look.

This is what Lost Eras(in Rogers Park, and I eventually need to redo my review of that place) would…read moreprobably be like, if it had 2.5 times more space, plus an outdoor area(just off of a left side door past all the TVs) to sell even more stuff(though the most interesting stuff by far is inside). This store was seriously like combining the most interesting retro things you'd find in someone's basement(more like the most interesting items of all the basements you've visited), and displaying them all in a very huge space. All the previous reviews are right-on about this place being great. Looks deceptively small when you first enter, as you only see the main room, a 2nd room just behind that room, and a side room filled with LPs/music/books/etc. at first. But when you go to that second room and realize there are several more rooms behind that door(albeit these rooms aren't air conditioned or heated at all, unlike the main 3 rooms), then you realize how much hidden treasures are here. And this is the ONLY caution I'll give about this place: the bathroom(in the back half of the place that doesn't have a/c or heat) isn't in the greatest shape, so I'd suggest finding one somewhere else if possible, unless you have to go very badly. I believe the staff lets you haggle on prices at least somewhat(but not sure to how much of a degree they allow this), since I overheard someone at the register and a customer appearing to do that before I began exploring the back rooms. Glad I didn't rush my time here, and savored exploring this store. Can't wait to return to this store at some future point. *NOTE: Closed on Sundays*

I had the pleasure of visiting this store on both Friday and again on Sunday to both pick up an…read moreorder, and to do a return. Darlene, another associate, and the manager on duty (I wish I knew his name) provided me with the highest level of customer service. He made my day! He was a one man show on the floor and handing pickups and he even located my 18" Baker Santa that I was looking for online. Darlene found me on the floor, and she let me know that the manager had located my item. When I got to the register, Darlene took her time, and she made sure that my coupon was properly applied. I was able to find the most unique garland & Santa's. They have something for everyone. The store is neat, clean and well maintained. My order was quickly and efficiently processed with a smile. Darlene was professional, and I loved the way she worked to provide exemplary service as she even assisted her coworker when I arrived with my return.

What an unusual store! Random isn't the word for the assortment of merchandise: some furniture,…read moresome clothing, lots of men's shoes, few women's shoes, area rugs, toilet paper, some decor, a larger appliance section, a few toys and games, small appliances, single cans of soda, sparkling water, Monster, even some pet items. And dozens of suitcases of all colors! If you need luggage you will love the variety here. I'm working in the area this week and happened to see this store which is near my hotel. The furniture is very nice and extremely reasonably priced. I found a couple of couches that I would have considered purchasing IF I wasn't 3 hours from home and IF I was driving a truck. There were men's Land's End shoes for $5 a pair. A great deal! In fact everything I saw was a very good deal. I've never seen a store like this before. A fun place to shop! If I lived nearer I would stop in frequently! We definitely don't have a store like this in Carmel where I live. I'll add that everything was well organized and prices were clearly marked. This store is very clean and tidy. I'll definitely stop in whenever I am working in this area.

What is this place?! It's filled with a random assortment of everything you can think of, but at a…read morediscount. Everything from name-brand clothing and shoes to patio furniture and bedroom furniture, individual rolls of toilet paper, laundry baskets, washing machines, luggage, margarita mix, mirrors, giant cans of tuna, dog beds, tiki torches and lots more. Last Chance Overstock sells the things that didn't sell at other stores. It's the Island of Misfit Merchandise, if you will. (Will you?) My children had a fun time sitting in all of the chairs and couches around the store. A big portion of the store is dedicated to furniture, and the store-people are 100% OK with you and your children sitting on every couch and lying on every bed. My kids wanted to find the most comfortable couch, and they chose the one with plush corduroy that had cup holders and a USB plug. They wanted to buy it, but we live many miles away, and also, there is no way I'm inviting a couch with cupholders and a USB plug into my home. Get bent, kids. You need to look at the products carefully, because some of the things are a little worse for the wear. But for the most part, most of the items I saw at Last Chance looked perfectly fine. I wouldn't come here to find something specific, because inventory changes frequently, but this is a good place to browse and find a treasure.

I ended up going to both locations today and I was pleasantly surprised. I first met Jennifer who…read morewas very informative, yet gave me no pressure to buy. She did direct me to the mall location so I could get a better idea of what I was looking for. That is where I met Sean. He was so sweet to me, like he treated me like family. He asked all the right questions and was 100% honest. I feel I paid a great price for the sofa I bought today. Edit: the sofa I bought was on backorder, which was fine. I was told once it came in, I would receive a call to set up my delivery time. Well today I received a call saying they were in the area and wanted to deliver my sofa. I'm at work until 10pm. Then he offered tomorrow, but again, I'm at work till 10pm. He then offered to call me later today to set up delivery time, but I'm at work till 10pm. I personally feel that it would of been a lot easier to set up delivery time before trying to deliver it to my house. 2nd Edit: well since no one took the time to arrange a time for my sofa delivery, I decided to take it upon myself. So I called the store and spoke to a confused man. Then a different man came on the phone and asked if he could call me back later. Weird, but ok. Then the first man came back on to take down my name number. Yesterday they were all about delivering my sofa, now today it doesn't seem to be that big of a deal.

My parents ordered two couches, a chair, pillows, and a rug from this location back in August…read more Everything arrived in a timely manner except the two couches. At least eleven phone calls later (possibly more; they couldn't remember them all!), many many false promises from employees that the couches were on their way from the warehouse (or being build or on the truck, etc.), my parents were FINALLY informed at the end of November that the couches hadn't even been built yet! The delivery date for the couches has been pushed out at least three times! At this point the couches won't even be done being made until mid December. Apparently these specific couches are very popular! A manager has blamed many of the employees for not knowing how to read the computer. One employee even told them, when asked by my parents for a corporate number, that it "doesn't exist," that there isn't one that they can give out. My father later found one online and was able to reach corporate. My parents were initially only refunded the shipping costs, but have since been told they will be credited more money.

What a welcoming environment! The owner Karen and her assistant were so friendly and helpful. The shop has outstanding vintage pieces of all kinds and from all periods, such great Americana on display. I took so many pictures and posted them all so you can see for yourselves. This is a fabulous treasure trove of epic portions. I love the place! With independent shops like these and your support Downtown Hammond can rebuild on a new future and life on Hohman Ave once again. It's encouraging to note this change happening before our eyes. Support your local business and find that unique gift that no big box boring, homogeneous store can ever offer. Be different! Start a trend! Get offline and go shopping the old fashioned way! Highly recommended! Very impressive! I loved it!
