Very nice and courteous staff, who are on a first-name basis with many customers. The manager is very good at pricing - not too high, but not giving it away. This results in high inventory turnover, so you can go there every week and find fresh items. They have 50% off sales for a different category almost every week, and they have whole-store sales and refresh the entire inventory twice a year.

Super clean and organized store but much too expensive for my taste. most shirts were around $10…read more coats around $22. the shoes I saw were at least $12. for someone used to village discount prices I only stayed in the store maybe 20 mins cause I knew I wouldn't find anything I'd value at the price. Fairly priced items in my opinion were the bras and tights, $3 and $2. dvds and cds $1 and $0.50. and some of the jewelry didn't seem too bad.

I was primarily looking for fabric, and I unfortunately didn't find a ton of options to repurpose in the bedding and linens area. However, they have several racks of women's clothing to look through with shoes of several sizes organized above the racks. I even saw someone score a pair of new Vejas sneakers the day I went. I didn't have a ton of time to look through everything, but the store is much bigger on the inside than it looks from the street. I went on an extremely busy morning (I believe it may have been a senior citizen sale? I just got the tail end of an announcement over the intercom), but I had no trouble at all finding a solid parking spot just outside the main entrance in a generous private lot. The street is pretty busy, so I would be careful to turn at the light if you're taking a left into the store. There are tons of different clothing brands, from boutique to well-known names and more fast fashion tags. There was even a whole section of home goods I didn't get a chance to explore. My one difficulty was navigating the long racks of clothing. It was difficult to get from one end to another given the sheer amount of foot traffic, but I'm sure it may be different on a less busy day.

Get some things on the cheap. They also have a few sales each week. Basically it looks like a typical small thrift store, but the difference is the quality of what they have. It's mostly clothes, and a few knickknacks. There's also home goods like glasses and plates. Clothes aren't falling apart like at some places that are cheaper. The service is also friendly. Get here for some good finds and fairly cheap. It's a little more expensive than Goodwill but it's better quality. There's something to get as a gift or for yourself.

I found a vintage 100% leather Wilsons Leather piece for $34, originally $48. Apparently they had a 30% off clothing and Christmas decor sale- our lucky day! The jacket was made for me, I swear it. I also got a couple cute ornaments and one will replacement a corporate one that I now get to return. Plus the one at Avenues is a 10th of the price, 10x better quality, and supports adults with disAbilities. And we love that. Happy shopping!

The staff is what really sets this place apart. Huge shout-out to Elsa, Rosetta, Beth, and Barb--knowledgeable, honest, and genuinely helpful. They'll help you find great pieces and talk you out of things that aren't quite right. Consigning is easy and fair, and knowing all profits support local Chicago charities makes shopping here even better. A must-visit for contemporary and luxury consignment.

I will not return due to the arrogance and microaggressions of the employees. I know my high end designer brands. I own high end designer brands. I do not always go shopping dressed to the nines. Esp to a consignment store sidewalk sale. An employee rolled her eyes when I asked her about the pricing on one of the items. No need for the attitude. While my daughter was waiting to check out, another employee approached a woman standing behind her to take her to a register. That customer asked my daughter if she wanted to go with the employee. That was classy and kind. The employee actually stammered and point my daughter to a register and proceeded to walk the customer to personally ring her up. Needless to say, we will never come back. There are better resale stores on the North Shore: across the street is the YWCA resale, KMK Luxury in Winnetka, Junior League in Evanston, New to You in Glenview, Winnetka Thrift Shop are just a few. Everyone at all those stores are respectful and kind.

The selection is beautiful and they have a wide assortment of different furniture, lighting, and art. The prices to the value are very reasonable, especially compared to other secondhand stores in the area. Each time I visit, there is always newness.

I definitely recommend stopping in once in a while, especially if you're looking for something in particular - we will be back for sure!

I think they're a fairly new establishment which opened over a year ago. I've gone twice in the past month. The prices are crazy excellent where you can find quality clothes if you dig deep enough. Clothes are available for all sexes and age ranges. They don't just sell clothes either. There's a good variety of things for sale like basic housewares, accessories, music, movies and comic books. I even saw a few items like tool sets, a set of golf clubs and a vintage Nintendo Cube set for sale. On both occasions, I spent an hour here and never left empty-handed. Look out for their 50% color tag sales that are generally offered daily. That's where you'll find the biggest savings. The only downside is that they don't have a dedicated changing room but they offer their single occupancy bathroom as their changing room. Disclaimer, the bathroom/changing room did not smell pleasant. It had a strong sewage stench. Hopefully their bathroom sitch gets fixed with time. At least they offer poo spray in the bathroom. If you have a sensitive nose, you may want to avoid. Another disclaimer - All items are final sale. They give no returns and no store credit is offered. They accept cash and card payments. There is free parking in the public lot to the right of the store. Currently open Tuesday - Sunday but check Yelp or call for their store hours. Happy shopping!

I love thrifting and buying second hand and was so excited to see a new option close to me. I slipped my plans for Thrifty Thrift in with some other errands on a Sunday. They are open 12-5 on Sundays and it was between 12pm and 1pm that I stopped by. They had a sign out on the sidewalk that said they had parking, but I'm not sure what parking is actually for them. I parked in a lot that was just East of the store (the direction I was traveling). It had snowed in the few days prior to my visit and Thrifty Thrift did not have any of the sidewalk in front of it's store shoveled or salted. I'm not sure if it's not required or they think customers won't appreciate it or maybe I just happened to be by on a day that they didn't have enough staff to get it done, I'm not sure. Inside this store feels very much like a cross between a flea market stand and a small second hand store. It's relatively tight inside with all available space used. Every surface has more items available. There are clothes racks in the back, they are too tight for 2 people to look at the same row at once. This is a place that somehow felt like it had so much and nothing all at once. If you're a thrifter, this is definitely a spot you need to dig through and if you find what you're looking for it was exactly perfect and if you didn't find what you were looking for, then you found nothing. IYKYK. There was one man working at the front, and I was greeted. He was not overbearing and did not speak to me again, and I did not have any questions to ask. I didn't purchase anything on this stop so can't speak to overall price of items. I'm not sure this will be a stop for me regularly, but if you're looking for a particular thrifted good, this could definitely be an option. I do always appreciate a non-corporate option for second hand buying. Thank you, Thrifty Thrift!
