As a child of the 80's, I really dislike outdoor malls and this recent outdoor mall trend. Where…read morewould Debbie Gibson play? It rains on you. It snows on you. You're nose is frozen on your face during the winter. In the summer it's so damn hot you melt onto their hard, metal benches if your lucky enough to find one of the few benches without interlopers. This concept might work in upstate New York. This is Missouri. It's either 95 degrees or 30. That pleasant food court smell doesn't waft up through the doorway to great you. Instead you're greeted with the odor of spent petroleum. This summer you will be dodging the angry wasps that guard each planter. Faux elegance at it's best. The stores are mostly smaller versions of what you would find at Oak Park or Independence center. This place is a decent stop off to kill some time but if you really want shopping you need to go to the larger stores at other locations. There is one bright spot, Macy's. Why? This store is genius. In this unassuming store they have placed a Starbucks, an oasis for men waiting for their wives while they finish shopping. The mere act of selecting flip flops can take a woman over two hours -this is a fact. For the first time in my life I sat down and enjoyed an anchor store comfortably without pressuring my wife to go. This alone gives the entire area a bump to three stars. Of course, its small enough my wife can't find what she's looking for and we end up driving over to Oak Park anyway.

I have mixed feelings about this store. The times I've taken clothes, etc.,for resell are very…read moreinconsistent. I have brought in 4-6 things in and made a a fair amount of cash and another time with 3 bag loads and given lunch money. Staff is very immature, can be downright rude and tacky and another time be respectful and courteous. But the one thing that just really ticks me off is the fact that they want your clothes to be clean, in good condition and folded but if you're left with anything they won't take, they wad the item up and are in a heap in the bag like they mean for it to look like a trash bag! I prepare all my things for observation with care and its so disrespectful. I'm not saying only once, its everytime. Second hand store or not, they could show a bit more class.

Yesterday was my first time at Arizona Trading Company, and honestly? I had no idea what I was…read morewalking into. I rolled in with over a dozen pair of jeans--including two never-worn, high-end designer divas that had been haunting the "maybe someday" section of my closet. You know the ones: too expensive to wear, too guilty to toss. At this point, they were basically emotional support denim. Fifteen minutes later, I walked out with cold hard cash. Real, actual Andrew Jacksons. No paperwork. No judgment. No shady consignment vibes. Just: "Thanks, here's your money." Boom. Done. Easiest hustle I've ever pulled. They even offered me 10% more in store credit--and yeah, I considered it. There were some fire pieces that almost had me breaking my own rules. But let's be real: my closet is already a crime scene. The mission was purge, not relapse. Bottom line? If your closet's bursting with regrets and "what was I thinking" buys, ATC is your no-BS exit strategy. Cool staff, smooth process, no pressure. I'll be back--after I survive round two of the great denim exorcism.

The donors are extremely generous; they donate items with a mind to funding programs. Proceeds from store sales got to a new program for kids called EMPOWER-U. The object of the program is to get kids who suffer from technology-induced isolation to come out and join in a fun, team sport or activity. They play; SSL pays. Stop and the store and ask about it.

Guys, trust me when I say at some point your girlfriend/girl who is a friend/spouse/mother WILL want to come to this sometime. I can admit, it's pretty fun rummaging through the shops. We find ourselves in the Hello Sailor shop more than some of the other ones because it definitely has the best layout. Some of the other shops are multiple floors with crowds and narrow staircases (admittedly part of the charm of the older repurposed buildings) that don't make it quite as easy to navigate. Hello Sailor has a wide spread floor, less clutter, and more quality options. I've noticed in a lot of these antique shops that the first 60 seconds can really determine if you're going to like what they have. If you're seeing mustard yellow couches and rows of cartoon farm animal cookie jars, it might be time to head to the next shop. Bonus, they have public restroom in the middle of the shop. Our latest excursion had us looking for a coffee table. My wife has a good eye and spotted a kitchen table and figured we could trim the legs on it. While it wasn't marked, it didn't take long to find someone who confirmed it was for sale, texted the owner and came back with a fair price. Once you buy furniture, you can move your car carefully through the crowds out front and take a spot by their loading bay. They'll have their staff bring it out and help you get it in the car if needed. If you aren't able to fit it in your car that day you just save your receipt for the next time you can come in and they'll get it out to you.

Currently they just have signs in the window and they appear to be hiring. The service was friendly and the store is organized well. They have the typical selections of most thrift stores: adult and children clothing, household goods, some books, but not very much. They have some DVDs and odds and ends. They also had infant clothing, purses/bags, shoes, and a variety of other items. They do have a small amount of toys, but they don't have a dedicated area for that. They sit them on top of the shelves on top of clothing racks so you have to kind of look for them. I purchased a toddler floaty life vest for my two year-old grandson and it was five dollars. I'm not sure how much they typically are, but I'm sure they're more than five dollars and it appeared to be in good condition. They have a variety of sales that are going on throughout the week. For example, on Fourth of July they had a 50% off special. I will pop back in here and there just to see what new items they get for toys and books.

It bleeds personality--pure, unfiltered vintage glory. Every piece has a story, a vibe, maybe even a past life in a punk band. Dripping with legit retro energy, it doesn't dabble in throwbacks; it mainlines them straight to your soul. First time stepping in, I was hit with a full blast of cool. Effortlessly hip, unapologetically chill, peak Lawrence, Kansas. It's giving local legend, not tourist trap. I didn't buy anything--today. But wandering around was a blast. Every corner packed memories I forgot I had. This isn't just a shop; it's a time machine wrapped in flannel and funk. The guy working was a gem--super sweet. I wanted to give him my business. Next time, I'm not leaving without something that carries its own breakup anthem.
