Located in the Walgreens shopping center. Large store. No public restrooms which was closed down…read moreduring Covid and never reopened to shoppers. Decent prices. Used to have 50% off color tags which are now only 25%. They do have a shopping reward system to accumulate points for extra discount off. Parking is large. Shopping center location is a bit run down. Although I do see new businesses opening up in this location.

I came in looking to drop off donation around 2pm. I walked towards some workers who didn't…read moreacknowledge me. It looked like one was orienting another person and complaining about someone being strict. So I said hello loudly to another worker who was walking to the front. She didn't stop, just answered my questions as she kept walking, just saying drop off is closed. I was interested in asking about HOW to do the drop off, but she wasn't actually listening to me. It's like as if noise was coming out of me and she assumed I was still asking about the hours. By not stopping, she doesn't really care I'm asking or looking for help. She's busy doing her job and I'm getting in the way of it. Except I think answering questions is part of her job, but I'm not so sure. The other workers didn't acknowledge me and continued to say unkind things about a coworker which is unprofessional. It was also only 2pm and they already stopped taking donations. The Goodwill was open later for taking donations or you could drop off yourself if the door was open. In my mind, I thought to myself, "Beggars can't be choosers...but I'm not a beggar. " So we drove all the way to good ol' St Vincent's which was a much better experience and definitely worth the time and gas.

Called this place, man (Roberto or Jesus maybe some other man?) answered, hello. That's it. I ask,…read morewho is this? He replies, who is this... you called me! I said, I'm calling a thrift store and I don't know if this is who you are. He reply Yes. I said as a business you should say hello this the thrift shop to confirm to people you are a business. He replies, you called me! Rude; after I just explained why he needs to act like a professional and reference the business. I tell him I'm not from Hayward and willing to drive there if you would do a quick look to see if you have any CD players and cassette players for a stereo system, not a boom box. He said he thinks he has some. I explain I am willing to drive if he has some, but don't want to if he doesn't. He say, yes I think we have some. I ask will you please confirm and take a look. He says, I'm pretty sure we have them. I ask how much are they. He says they'er not much. I ask again, would you please check and let me know how much. I see these in other thrift shops for $15-20 dollars. He says his aren't that cheap. I ask how much are yours. He replies more that that. I said that doesn't help me. For Pete's sake, you are not working with me at all on anything I ask. You don't let people know your a business when you answer the phone and argue with them about I called you etc. He is not willing to walk over to physically see if he has a cd or cassette player and not willing to tell me how much he charges. I push him again for a price. He says the CD player and cassette players are over $80 each. I say, that's why I'm asking. I don't want to pay that much. He says his have been gone over and work. I said that doesn't matter to me. What ever shop I buy from, they will take it back if it doesn't work, even at $15. He says I knew you didn't want to spend any money that's why I didn't tell you. I said when someone asks for a price, simply tell them. Don't make drama out of it, that's insulting. Then he hangs up on me. Ask yourself, do you want to be treated this way? Shame on him. He wanted to argue with me about everything. I called him back, of course he didn't take the call. I left him a messaging saying he just earned a negative one star on yelp. You brought it on with you bad attitude. I don' know what position Roberto or Jesus or smoother man? has (answering machine message says she is his daughter leaving the recording. I'm assume it's his business.) It's been along time since I've run into a rude business owner. I've only left one other Yelp review and it was 5 starts. Sorry Roberto, you deserve this review to be read by others.

Very high prices to be called a thrift store ; The owner need to be more humble ; he uplifts…read morehimself too much. Seems to be operated by the family: yet you don't feel welcomed since you walk in. They look at your every move as if you where to steal. rather keep visiting larger thrift stores ; can't support this small family business when they are ripping people off. More then half of this store sells brand new retail items ; nothing thrift about it .

A local, small business that's not so hidden, yet it's a diamond in the rough in this part of the…read moreUne! (aka Union City) I finally had the time to check this place out on my lunch break - given, I was in an instant desire to let go & get my hands off of some fresh kicks (Air Jordan 4 Retro Bred ReImagined - sz 10), that I had bought over a ShockDrop from their Nike SNKRS app hat my homie hooked up for me not too long ago! Don't let that person know, tho! (cuz I will find out! Haha JK) I used to be somewhat 'so much' involved in the shoe game / hypebeast lifestyle growing up.. I remember so much back in high school, with my part-time job in the library shelving books, yet I'd fork over almost my entire paycheck to get some J's... but then, it sorta just stopped once I graduated high school & went to college - up 'til I was gettin' into my early twenties, and had phased out of it & moved on to 'grown man shoes', as my best friend would say back in the day not too many years back. Like a saying I once heard in my teens, you gotta know where to "deal with the real" AND having done a smooth transaction with Kyle Goudie (the proprietor of this humble abode of a buy/sell/consignment shop) was definitely a foreal, foreal REAL one! Honest, Legit, and Transparent. Thank you for being friendly & patient - especially for someone like me not having a peer-to-peer mobile payment app that allows users to easily transfer funds from a linked financial institution account to another recipient - I did have PayPal, tho! Haha. I originally bought the shoes at a higher price & offered the , but I wasn't trippin' out since it was only a few dollars difference - and with my side hustle as a musician - can't complain to be 'too blessed to be stressed'. #mindfulmatters I definitely recommend ya'll check this local business when you find yourselves on this side of the East Bay!! Don't say I didn't warn you! Once in awhile, you'll find yourselves craving for some fresh kicks, just wanting to browse on some vintage apparel & footwear & other knick knacks, and/or even getting yourself donned in what's "in" to be "it", cuz you know you just can't stay away from being & looking "fit"!

Grand reopening!…read more Sole Scrubs is now reopened. These guys are tenacious, hard working, and have a love for shoes and their community. Are you looking for a pair of Air Nomo Max and can't find it anywhere? If Sole Scrubs can't find them, no one can! Are you looking to recondition your favorite sneakers? They can do that, too! Do you want a Vintage 49er Superbowl Shirt from 1995? I do, and I have no doubt that the amazing staff at Sole Scrubs will find me exactly what I want. Come check out their newly reopened store, Sole Scrubs, Union City, born and bred.
