I've been coming to this thrift store for over a decade now and have never once left empty-handed…read more I've since moved out of state but make it a priority to stop here every time I come back. My new local thrift option is Savers, which has been a great second place choice, but Community/Red White & Blue is the top shelf of thrift stores. The selection is always incredible, the sales are great and the staff has always been friendly.

I had an extremely disappointing experience. After discovering that my personal belongings were…read moremissing, They had been taken by an employee. The manager refused to check the cameras even to the cops!!! I called the police and filed a police report because I felt I had no other option. What made the situation even more upsetting was being told they were going to call the police on me after I reported what had happened. From my perspective, this situation was handled very poorly. I expected a thrift store that serves the community to take my concerns seriously and help resolve the issue, not make me feel like I was the problem. Because this matter is now being pursued through the proper channels, I'll let the facts speak for themselves. I hope the store reviews its policies and takes customer concerns more seriously in the future. The police officer said this thrift store is known for crime and low life employees and thieves. Then proceeded to tell me. I should never come back here because it's too dangerous so I'm passing the message of danger on to anybody who reads this. They will pray upon you. They will make you uncomfortable. It's not worth it. I rather support any other cause than here. No way I will ever be back here. I can't discuss any other proceedings because the case is still open. But just take this this morning

As Salvation Army thrift stores go, this one is a Big-un! Isles are clear, clean and loaded with…read morelots of goodies. There is plenty of parking outside. I was pushing my mom in her transporter chair and she started to hurt so our visit was shorter than needed to really get a good look at everything. I had found the cutest angel wall decoration and really wanted to buy it but when I went to check out I notice there was someone at the counter with a lot of items and only one cashier, then I noticed there was a couple in line with a big cart full of stuff. I figured we could get behind the couple but then two people quickly came up behind the couple and they had a lot of items. Mom was hurting and with only one cashier it would be a good 15+ min. wait I theorized. I hated to do it but I put down that cute angel wall decoration and we left. They have fancy purses, clothes up the wazu, housewares, books, furniture, on and on. A riding scooter and more cashiers would bump this to a 5 star. I highly recommend a visit.

Been here many times. It's hit or miss for what I happen to be looking for…read more However, I stopped in today (Aug 2024) and some of the prices were outrageous. $5 for a Dollar tree decorations $10 for a craft project that would cost Less to do it yourself.

I decided to give this thrift store a shot because of all the other thrift stores in this plaza…read more When I first walked in, it smelled of dust and damp water. It was a really nasty gross smell. Everything was cluttered around. I went to the household items to look for some items, and all I saw was junk. There was a lot of old and rusty items stocked, which was strange. I would never take some of these items even if they were free! Most of it should not have been put on the shelf. We found absolutely nothing. We saw one cute figurine, but it was broken and they wanted $6 for it. No thanks. I do not want to pay for broken items that are not even worth $6 fixed. We walked around a bit more and to be honest we saw more junk. They had a bunch of larger household items and garage items. All of it was super old. There was dust on items. You could not even look at some because they decided to close all walkways with furniture. It seems that they just shoved furniture in one collective spot, where you can not even reach anything to look at it. The furniture was super old too. It looked like items that people place on the street or on Craigslist for free. Sadly, I will not be back here.

If you're addicted to thrift shopping like I am, this is definitely a place to check out…read more Strangely, Sunshine is located in a plaza that houses TWO thrift shops (itself, and Community thrift). Sunshine is the smaller of the two, but in some cases size doesn't count. I like Sunshine because their prices are always excellent. This is the home of the 60-cent shirt! Every thrift shop in the area prices their products differently (even if we're talking about Salvation Army on Auburn versus Salvation Army on Gratiot)... and Sunshine is by far the cheapest of all. Price isn't the only thing that Sunshine has going for them. Some of the coolest jackets and shirts I own I got from there. I'm all for getting Old Navy or Gap clothes on the cheap... but to be able to snag TRUE vintage clothes at thrift store prices is unbeatable! (As opposed to paying hipster prices at a resale shop. Ahem.) They have a decent book selection, but this may not be a place to look for movies or records at; they have them, but the selection is small. Even still, there's a large selection of men's and women's tops, bottoms, coats, and shoes. What more could you ask for? Ah yes... 60-cent shirts!

I came here to drop off donation items. I decided to stroll through the store. I do not normally…read moreenjoy thrift store and they often smell funny and seem chaotic, but not Tried +True. This place is super organized, clean, and spacious. They have various areas nicely organized by household items, womens clothing , men's clothing, kids clothing, and some small furniture. It was truly a very nice store and I am glad folks from our local community have such a resale store to shop at.

Wow this store is truly amazing. I learned that all proceeds go to their church and school. They…read moreaccept donations as well. I'm not sure if they need an appointment. The store is closed Sunday and Monday. They have daily/weekly deals. I was able to purchase a bunch of sift cover books for $1 a piece. Hard cover books were $2 each. They also had 50% off of items in this one room. I found cute foam craft stickers for half off which ended up being $1. The women's clothing was fairly priced and she told me the shirt I found was yellow and 50% off so I got it for $1.50. It was really nice and looked new. They do have boutique items that are a little more priced but not too bad. Overall, everything seemed fairly price and I really enjoyed my time there. I actually ran out of time because I had an appointment to go to. I will definitely be back.

I absolutely love this place. It is not so much a thrift store as it is an antique shop. They…read morealways have something fun to purchase. Througout the years I purchased a child's rocking chair and decorative owl. Last time I was thrilled to find an ornate tabletop stainless steel service plate and cover. My son just got his first "real" job working midnights and I wanted to leave him a nice meal for when he came home from work. So now he gets to come home to a warm meal under a fancy dish cover (picture a heart emoji....I don't know how to make one...) But I never leave without my cappuccino. Ever. They also have an array of sweets. The owner is absolutely fantastic and I will keep coming back. This place is my guilty pleasure.

I've shopped at Value World many times and there are definitely some positives worth mentioning…read more The staff I've interacted with have always been very friendly and knowledgeable, and I really appreciate the promotions and discounts they offer on a regular basis. When things are running smoothly, you can find some good deals. That said, I'm increasingly disappointed with a few things. During promotions, the store is clearly understaffed, and the lines become excessively long for everyone. It turns what should be a fun, bargain-hunting trip into a frustrating experience. I was also told by a staff member that they are instructed to look up every item online before pricing it and putting it on the floor. That approach might make sense from a business standpoint, but it takes away from the feeling that you're getting a fair "thrift store" deal and can really slow down the process of getting items out for customers. What bothers me most, though, is learning that this is a for-profit-only company that doesn't appear to represent any cause or give back to the community. There are donation bins in front of the store, but there's no clear indication that those donations go to a good cause or help people in need. In contrast, many other resale and thrift stores are transparent about supporting local charities, community programs, or people in need. It's disappointing that Value World doesn't seem to do the same, especially when they rely on donations and present themselves in a way that can easily be mistaken for a charitable thrift store.
