I absolutely love Retails Thrift Store. The workers are all very kind and helpful. I appreciate the prices there too as I purchase items and donate them to Northwest Children's Outreach. Recently, management was so kind and donated to NWCO as well. What a blessing. I have family coming to visit and one thing they want to do is go to Retails! Thank you, Retails, for great management, clean store with good prices. I recommend this wonderful store and management. Thank you! read more

I would try to visit this store on a weekday day. We went on a Saturday and it was so busy, chaotic and a bit overwhelming. No staff maning the floor of the store. They just had cashiers with an extrmely long line. It took about 15 mins waiting in line to check out. Certian sections are well orgnized and others are not. It looks a bit dingy and messy in parts of the store. They allow dogs so that is nice and their sales benefit the Humane society which is awesome! We brought our pup. I found a few great nicknacks and a great little bench seat with an embroidered top for $7.99. Needs to be refinished. Really good prices on many things. There were not enough people working and they were kind of unproffesional and unhelpful. They seemed extremely stressed. I wanted to see things in a locked in a case on the floor. I politely asked the clerk about it and she said it will be like a half hour and never looked up at us at all or when checking us out or said anything pleasant or nice. Something for them to work on. Some customers also seem clueless about just standing in the way of others from looking at things and chit chatting for 5 - 10 minutes. It is not a coffee shop people. read more

I can't believe I've been just passing this gem by every time I visit the shopping center! Such a great place and it supports an important cause. The prices can't be beat! They test their electronics so everything is guaranteed to work. Clothes are color coded so everything is easy to find. Great customer service ample parking. Cats are fun to watch and they have a little seating area. Will be stopping in every time now. read more

As an employee at Yelp, keeping my favorite stores secret is probably not a good idea... but Retails Thrift Store is one that I've guarded closely for a long time. Let's just say, I never leave this store empty-handed due to their huge inventory and great prices. This giant thrift store is housed in a former Albertsons if that gives you an idea of scale. There are multiple departments, and row upon row upon row of treasures waiting to be discovered. Given Retails rotational discounts, visitors never really know what they're going to find here. New products are coming in daily, and different colored tags are discounted daily as well. The store has a robust jewelry section with glass cases filled with rings, bracelets, necklaces and earrings. I've found so many wonderful items for both myself, and to give as gifts. Because the inventory is based on donated goods, there is always a wide variety of items available to purchase. The pet department is Retails best-kept secret. The store is managed by the Humane Society of Southwest Washington, so as you can imagine, there are tons of great buys for the pets in your life. I come here for cheap dog toys for my pug to tear apart, water and food bowls, pet carriers, etc. I've found some really incredible deals here. Retails has an extensive clothing department that takes up at least 40% of the overall footprint of the store. Clothing is clean, well-displayed and organized, and priced to sell. On one of the discount days I was able to leave the store with a dozen pairs of pants for my husband for less than $30! What a deal! Seriously, if you haven't shopped Retails, RUN! You're bound to find something you just can't live without in this eclectic thrift shop. Be advised, however, sometimes the checkout line can get a little long. I believe many of the staff are volunteers, so they're doing their very best to keep things running smoothly. read more

I do not write very many negative reviews and it saddens me to write this one. This store could and should be so much better. It was dark, dirty, poorly organized and the merchandise was not clean. On the bright side the prices were very low. The leadership of the local Humane Society should really be demanding better from their Thrift Store. Hopefully someone will bring this to their attention. Clean it up, make sure the inventory is clean, organize the store better and do you organization proud. read more

The employees are super nice. Management is a joke. I always shop there first, want to support the animals. Ive bought several large items. Last week a huge tree I thought would look good on my patio. Didnt get it. The guy moving stuff around asked some larger woman w brown hair and teeth issues for a price. He said she was his manager. Well she is lazy and told him to run somewhere to get a price...he didnt. He just asked her another question and they kept messing w the bookcase. I left...and left the tree. This isnt the first time Ive dealt w her but she is not management material at all. Lazy and never helpful read more

Found my new favorite thrift store. Quality vintage furniture in very good condition and sewing patterns dating back to the 70's! I even found some patterns that my grandmother used to own. Best retail find to date! Definitely come to visit if you're a fan of thrift shopping, bring a friend even. I also noticed that some people go here to find some nice trinkets for their wedding, such as candle holders, centerpieces and plates! read more

I truly believed that I had written a review for this fabulous little thrift store...apparently, I was mistaken. The best thing about the Retails, is that the proceeds from the store go toward the care and feeding of critters. But beyond that, the store is clean, well organized, and has a lot of cool stuff to browse. My favorite part of the store is the cookware and dining area. If you are getting your first apartment or are newly married, you can find really nice table settings, cookware, and cutlery. I even picked up a few pieces of vintage Pyrex. They also have crystal ware and beautiful teapots. If you are a music/film buff they have an exceptional section for both...books too. If you haven't stopped by, you really should. The people who work here are so lovely and most volunteer. read more

What a great place! I can find almost everything I need there, at very low prices. Conveniently located on Fourth Plain.

Their prices are pretty low and they have varieties above all a good customer service.

Wonderful shop. Had fun looking at the variety of on great condition items. At a great price.

I love this @27,000 sf store that benefits pets. Selection is broad and prices are low. On my recent visit, all clothing was only $1. This is not only the best thrift store to shop, but also the best place to donate. read more

Fantastic thrifty store supporting a great cause. Prices are very fair and store is well organized. Even if there is a line at checkout it moves quickly read more

I love that i happened upon this store. It has incredible prices for a thrift store and great selection of unique items. Will definitely be returning! The service was also very good. read more

Drove up from Portland to check this place out. 100% recommend. I could look through this store for HOURS. With how expensive thrifts like Goodwill have gotten, Retail thrift is a breath of fresh air. Super affordable, so many different things, AND they allow pets. They even had some rooms with kitties up for adoption! read more

Love Reta I ls. Always find a deal or something at a great buy! The store is readying information for the big Christmas reveal. Open November 2. But if you want to go to the pre-party purchasing..that event is November 1, 2024. You can buy a ticket for the event online...Retails.com. For $30.00. Well worth the cost if you are a Christmas decor collector. I never miss it! Hope to see you there! read more

Didn't have the best selection of pet items, though I thought they would. We came here looking for a cat tree, but didn't find one. We found a couple of dog toys for our dogs, but again, not the widest selection. However, they did have quite a large clothing selection, and furniture as well! read more

So many areas to explore, I never feel I have to dig to find anything. Wish they still had fitting rooms (thanks Covid) but really like how they organize the clothes now. By color and then by size. No "women's" section, they're just an extension of the smaller sizes. read more

The people who check you out are so kind and helpful. Love the fact that the money from sales goes back into helping the animals!!

I was introduced to this amazing thrift store where their mission is to financially support animals. You can even bring in your pet while you shop. The place is huge! They sell vintage items, items for your pets, household items, clothing, etc. Since Covid with any clothing items, you buy it, take it home to try on & then you have 7 days to return it. Not good if you live far away. On Wednesdays, they offer 50% off clothing. When you make a purchase, you can choose to support animals by rounding up your bill. They're open 7 days a week with a big variety of items at reasonable prices! A lot of items are cheaper than other thrift stores. read more

Super clean and organized! Large store that isn't jammed full! So nice! Clerks said they have a huge Christmas selection each year. Clerks were friendly and helpful! read more

My favorite thrift store! So well organized and the prices are very fair! My daughter and I especially love the book department and could spend hours there browsing through the titles. As animal lovers, it makes us happy that the proceeds go to support the safety and wellbeing of neglected animals. And the staff is wonderful! Very helpful and friendly! Highly recommend!!! read more

Great place to find some goodies at a great price. Love that it benefits the SW Washington Humane Society too. read more

Very nice store,can't believe some of the things they have,from personal items to kitchen, bedroom, animals, clothes, jewelry. You will find what your looking for and the best part, money goes to humane society of Vancouver. So donate, shop,and spread the word this amazing shop is waiting for you. read more

Went to third thrift store a couple months ago with my grandma. We love thrifting it's one of our favorite things to do together. We both also love things that are for a cause. So obviously we loved this shop because it supports the humane society . This store has a good selection of clothes and toys, I found some cute bracelets and a vintage my little pony toys here. Everything was very cheap, bracelets were around 30 cents and the pony toy was around $2. Not to also mention the best part about this story was the mini pet shop in the back of the store, there were about 3 cats in the back that are up for adoption. So cute! The staff was understanding when I accidentally cut in line, she was very kind and complimented me on my outfit. Will choose this over the old goodwill any day! 10/10 read more

I stop by here every week. The clothes are affordable and overall the store is clean.

This 5 star rating is for A Thrift Store... One of the nicest I've seen... Nevertheless, it's a Thrift store. Considering all of the product, it's very well laid out and organized. Not only is the clothing organized by type, men's, women's, children's, it's also organized by size and color. That makes shopping so much easier and less time consuming. All of the merchandise was in decent shape. Housewares were organized in a comparable fashion - by type and color. They had seasonal items, a nice selection of books, linens, etc. If something was chipped, it was marked as such and further discounted. The integrity was appreciated. Prices were reasonable and staff was helpful. We bought 10 items for $22. read more

The staff is so helpful and the store is neat and tidy. We found just what we were looking for and we love their mission!

Love to visit here. Have always found something I just had to have. I buy my stuffed animals here, for our dog.

Great place to shop. Lots of selection. Many Knick knacks. Good record selection. Tons of books (many only fifty cents). Clothes are cheap. Lots of parking. The furniture is overpriced (very), and so is some of the art/old books in that section, so I'm knocking off a star. read more

I really wanted to like to this place because I am told they raise money to help animals. I have been in a a handful of times. Each time, I have encountered extremely rude employees. Once I asked if I could see something behind the counter. (I had JUST checked out after waiting 15 minutes in line) When I asked the woman told me "you need to get back in line if you want to see something". Which is fine if I didn't already spend 15 minutes waiting then waiting on her to acknowledge me. Today, I came into the store looking for one specific clothing item. They have mirrors in the clothing sections. When I went to try a button up shirt over my shirt, the employee very loudly and rudely said "we don't allow people to try on items in store. We have a return policy". Also would be so bad if there were a place that was obvious for people to see this and know. And, she didn't yell it loud enough to embarrass me. The two woman isles over from me stared and looked me. One commenting "I had no idea that was the policy". And gave my a look of shock as well at the way she basically made an example of of me. I am all about any place that helps animals being I foster, rescue, TNR, and work with shelters to raise money year round. But, this place really needs to train employees on customer service and treating people like they are humans. I'm very sadden this is my experience here. There have also been a couple other times I come in and the employees after venting about customers, being rude to them and displaying attitude with them. read more

A very well laid out store. Closes were mostly sorted by color and define by size. It is a bit out of my way to get there but would go back if I was in the neighborhood! Scored some NWT Birks, nice. read more

Reasonable prices and organized well. Didn't smell which is a big deal when thrifting.

The trip to this store was well worth the visit. There's so much to like -- wonderfully curated, tidy, competitively priced and proceeds go to the Humane Society. If you love a good deal but don't like sorting through crap, this is the store for you. It's as if there's dozens of "church ladies" behind the screens keeping this place a really nice local treasure chest! read more

Prices here are great, I love that the clothing is spaced well and the racks and the staff is super nice. Not to mention....they have cats!

I would leave a minus star if possible. The web site says it takes furniture and antique and collectibles. We had a truckload of beautiful furniture, records, silver etc etc. even the gal collecting noticed we had a lot of really nice things but they had a sign out (not mentioned on web site) that said large donations needed to be re-scheduled. We drove 20 minutes just to get there because we figured they did business for a good cause. The manager said she would pick through and take the little stuff but she would not allow us to leave the large stuff unless we rescheduled. We ended up going to the dump where we got rid of tons of things this place could have made a lot of money on for the humane society. We are selling mother I laws house and need to be out of town in a couple days and have to get rid of it. This place is no better than the Goodwill. read more

* I love it! *Great deals! *Inviting and polite staff (for the most part lol) **Downside: I really wish they would re-open the dressing rooms to the public/customers again . Would be helpful to be able to have my kids try on the clothes before we buy em'. Just makes it a hassle later when something ends up NOT fitting correctly, etc. Other than that, *I really enjoy going there. *Always lots of variety. *Clothes, home goods, pet supplies, jewelry accessories, etc. OH YEAH! Another bonus is that they ALWAYS have that 20% coupon you can pick up through your paper mail. I think it's in there Every week.... I'm pretty sure? read more

Well organized thrift store! Love the abundance and variety of the place. So many neat cheap or expensive finds! Always worth it! Best way to furnish a home! read more

Nicely laid out. I love that the sales benefit animals! But it's in a sketchy part of Vancouver. The furniture prices are too high, but other items are reasonably priced. PLEASE INSTALL DRESSING ROOMS! Gas prices are too high to justify a trip to return clothing. You could model the dressing room checkin process like Goodwill-- that would need only one employee. read more

It's important to remind myself why my girlfriend drags me into ReTails occasionally....the $ she spends help go to pets that need help. For a thrift store, this one is nice! I have terrible luck buying used stuff most often but the few items I bought here have been fine. They have tons of stuff without it feeling 'overwhelming'. The shelves are stocked and the store itself seems clean whenever we go in. The employees are really friendly and helpful. Prices are fine as far as used items go. read more
