I met a lady that suggested I donate all of my leftover garage sale items to this charity. She told me they are only open one day a week, on Wednesday between the hours of 11-1pm.
I don't think I got any correct information from her, but I went to Hope For All on a Wednesday at 12:15pm. The parking lot is full, people scurrying about but they are all very old people.
I find the correct door, go in and a tall bald man across the way by the clear flap door gives me his full attention and says can I help you? I said I was there to shop, but really checking out this place I've never heard of. He informs me there is no shopping on the Wednesday before the yard sale. I'm thinking WTF is he talking about? And that look must have passed across my face because he reiterates it again, "Yeah, there's no shopping on the Wednesday before the yard sale. I'm sorry." I was really confused at all these old people coming out from the back like they had been shopping and that this guy was blowing me off with such finality.
I just said OK and left and snapped a few pictures while mentally writing my review. Like whatever-you don't want someone buying your donated stuff on a day you clearly are open. Cool, bro. You can't take the time to greet someone and tell them about the efforts of your charity? Awesome, peace out. read more
