The manager stated they weren't taking books right now. But clearly didn't want the books that I had. I suspect it had something to do with the books being queer/LGBTQ+ friendly. Very disappointed in this transphobic/homophobic run store. The cashier woman was very kind, though. 5/5 stars for her.

The building has a small side parking lot that can be difficult and parking on the street is sometimes the best choice. The service counter is straight ahead as you enter the shop, usually with two or so volunteer helpers. The store is surprisingly large opening to the right and straight back of the counter. Usually offering a nice selection of clothing - women's and men's mostly - they have a high end rack in both sections these garments are priced full resale. There is usually a decent selection of furniture and miscellaneous household items - most everything I looked at was again at full resale. As well, the book section was more resale than thrift priced. There are bargains to be had, but you will have to search a bit more - I have always found a few items each time I've been in and knowing my money supports the local hospice - makes paying a bit more for some items okay in my book. A solid 4 stars. 00196

The annual ArMack orchestra rummage sale weekend is a huge fundraiser for the combined high school…read moreorchestra, of Arcata and McKinleyville high schools. This event draws hundreds both days for this two day fundraiser event. Held in the gymnasium at Arcata high in November, this event helps raise money for the orchestra students annual performance and trip. Every year the orchestra travels either internationally or in the USA to perform in an environment of substantial exposure for these young musicians. This fundraiser allows the students to raise money individually as well as for the group collectively. There are always lots of great items available for thrifters and bargain hunters alike. Lots of clothing, footwear, artwork, glassware, kitchen appliances, furniture, tools, collectibles and vintage items to be had. Tables and tables fill the gym and there is even a high end section. This annual event is a great way for the community as a whole to show support for this great music program. Well worth to stop to shop and show support! 00149
