Flamingo Vintage was the perfect first stop to start our vintage shopping adventure last weekend!…read moreTheir collection is truly vintage, curated, diverse, and cool. They have stuff going back to the 40's and 50's, but I also found a cute pair of black Adidas Sambas for only $50 which I jumped on. My favorite part about the store is how well it's organized because it made shopping so easy and enjoyable. There's no digging through bins here! We stayed for a long time and the employee was available and friendly, but did not rush or crowd us.

I think it's dog-friendly as we saw someone with their cute pup inside shopping. The space was open and not too cluttered, which I always appreciate since I can get kind of overwhelmed in vintage/antique shops. Each area was nicely curated and it was easy to tell where each "booth" started and ended. I saw a variety of housewares, clothing, decor, etc. and had fun looking around finding some treasures. We didn't end up buying anything this time, but would definitely stop in again next time we're in the area.

The customer service and lack of any kind of soul or compassion in the management…read more I showed up to buy some new pants on Thursday (yesterday). Clearly I'm not made of money if you're shopping at a thrift store for clothes. 1. There is no dressing room anymore. There sure used to be and I'd be able to make sure my clothes fit before buying them. Something that happened in EVERY CLOTHING STORE I HAVE EVER BEEN TO. 2. They don't offer bags. Very strange... but whatever. So I buy 3 pairs of pants and go home and one of them has a rip in the calf. I call the store cause that $12 is a lot for me, again, I'm not rolling in the dough, I have to budget for everything. Orlando answers the phone and tells me that it's not store policy to take back items if they don't have the tag or the receipt, I need both. I said I didn't have the receipt anymore but I still have the tag. And instead of being forthcoming and saying what they mean they say it's not store policy to accept that but I should come talk in person. So, a fun riddle. (That's sarcasm. It was not fun). So I try in the other 2 pairs of pants and one fits while the other does not fit well. I don't see any reason to call about this second pair of pants and waste someone's time, I'll just bring it with me. I show up wearing gym shorts and with a backpack because I can try clothes on if I'm wearing shorts to see if they fit... but this feels uncomfortable and awkward to have to try on clothes in public. And it's rather humiliating. Why is there no dressing room? Anyway Orlando tells me I can exchange the pants that had a rip in the calf but since I didn't mention the ones that didn't fit and I don't have the receipt I cannot exchange those. So I guess fuck me for being poor and misplacing the receipt and not being psychic and knowing how to read through their riddle coded message. To me that $12 for that pair of pants is a big deal. I am struggling to survive. I just got a new washer and dryer in the building I live in so I don't have to wash clothes by hand or travel far to get to the laundromat. My other pairs of pants have holes in them and are worn out. I can't show up presentable with clothes that fit and aren't full of holes, I'm not trying to get something flashy and stylish. I'm just trying to have pants I can wear that aren't full of holes and worn down I can wear to work, to an interview, or just out and about and I do not have much. Anyone who works at Salvation Army definitely knows they are selling to people who are not making much money. It was financially taxing to waste a bus trip to go out there twice rather than once. And this cold unfeeling callus individual Orlando spoke to me like I was a child and did not care about me having wasted my money on clothes that don't fit in a place that doesn't have a fucking dressing room. Here's a coded message: do not let me run into you outside, Orlando.

My first time going to this store and I cant wait to go back. My daughter's wedding was in a month…read moreand I could not find a suitable dress. I walked in and gasped, I had 5 dresses to try in 2 minutes. The first one I tried I fell in love with. The most beautiful dress I have EVER seen. I quickly found my second dress for the rehearsal which Rachel picked out. I would have never have tried it myself and I immediately felt beautiful in it. All of the staff worked so hard to make it a wonderful experience. I am 60 and my body is not what it use to be. I was so discouraged with the dresses on the market that made me feel dumpy or showed too much skin. The staff helped me feel wonderful and I have the right to look beautiful whatever your body is. I left with a new attitude of dressing thanks to them. The store is absolutely stunning. It is worth the effort. I also think the prices were not outrageous as the quality and workmanship is wonderful. What are you waiting for? GO NOW!
