The atmosphere is nice, sometimes staff are busy but I completely get that, I have bought multiple items from them as well one time even using my buy out as store credit instead and got my kiddos some things that they needed. They have a nice mothers section as well that I would check out if you're expecting you can get most things here for a fraction of their online prices. Highly recommend!

There are some good buys (not overpriced) if you look closely. However, this is one of the most…read moreunreasonably priced thrift stores in the area. Furthermore, a full 75% of the vintage items that I have looked at closely have turned out to be damaged or missing major parts.. interestingly, "vintage item" prices never go on sale even though they are consistently overpriced.

I found many trendy and popular items here and maybe this is where the trend starts. Ok selection of home goods, women's clothing, and kids clothing. Not so much for shoes, men's, or toys. Came here at 2:00pm on a Friday and it was packed! (Don't people work?!)

HomeGoods is kinda like a better Tj Max, but then again I think the company that owns Tj Max owns…read moreHomeGoods so maybe they just share the same stuff! One thing to know is they have a ton of stuff here, and it's all in pretty nice condition. Stuff for bathrooms, kitchens, living room spaces, bedroom etc. We were looking for a small cabinet for a bathroom, and they had lots of storage things just not anything we were looking for! We did end up buying some soaps and the line moved pretty fast with 4 cashiers working. I found it funny that they only had huge oversize bags that would fit pillows but if you were buying a bunch of small stuff it would be a waste to the environment! Oh well good lesson to bring my yelp canvas bag next time! All in all, nice store, nice stuff, probably changes all the time... Think Tj Max but better or think Tj Max but the same!

Oh Atomic Garage... it's a shame you don't have more reviews in general... I just had to review…read moreyou. Atomic Garage is an amazing vintage clothing and vintage store in the trendy area in Des Moines... the owner/manager is super chill and a fun person who takes her vintage clothes seriously. Their selection is awesome and reasonably priced for how rare some of it is. It's definitely a great place to stop in when you're in town... and an even better place to stop in when you need a badass outfit to go to a formal event with. It's super well organized and just an overall fun store to walk around. The only reason I took a star off is because some of the stuff isn't for sale. It's only for rent... and that disappointed me. I don't live in town, so I couldn't rent the incredible options of suits/tuxedos that they sell there.

There is such a good vibe within, as owner Mallory is a friendly, kind person who has a lot of unique, hand-made, terrific items. She's a Story City native and a UNI grad, and she fully supports and recommends some nearby shops. I especially loved her greeting cards, candles, charcuterie boards, and cookbooks. The shop is in its fifth year and is thriving. I appreciated the fair pricing and overall quality of the products. We will add Des Moines Mercantile to our stops on future visits to Des Moines.

My handicapped wife asked where the restroom is and was told "we don't have a restroom." Really? We ended up leaving the store without looking around any further and didn't buy anything at all. I don't understand how they can expect customers to leave and go to Caseys and then come back to continue shopping. Having a restroom keeps people in the store and cleaning it is just part doing business. Open your restrooms!!!

Saw a video about this place and had to see it for myself! As a recovering Goodwill Bins fan and…read moregrowing up going to Ropa and other thrift and sift spots, I was intrigued. This is a chain that buys customer returns and end-of-season items and sells them at a discount. Think Amazon returns, overstock or out of season Target items, etc. Then, everything is dumped into bins for folks to look through: it's not even sorted into "soft" and "hard" like at the Goodwill bins. But the perk is, everything is new with tags / barely used! The pricing is unique - it goes: $10 Fridays $7 Saturdays $5 Sundays $3 Mondays $2 Tuesdays $1 Wednesdays 25c Thursdays We came on a Sunday and found a few items: an electric beard trimmer, a plant pot, an outdoor rug, Duke Cannon soap. However, I would say if I were to come back, I'd probably come on either $10 Friday hoping for a bigger ticket item, or on Tuesday/Wednesday because most stuff just wasn't worth $5. Lots of plastic items, cheap items and felt too small/cheap for $5. There were lots of clothes, but they were mixed in with the hard goods so hard to go through, and most were Target or Amazon brands so didn't see much value in going through them on $5 day - for me at least. If you're looking for kids toys and stuff, household decor and trinkets, acrylic organizers, and gifts - this is a great place to stock up on the cheaper days! Super interesting to look through. I don't think I'll be back anytime soon, but very interesting!

Their buyer, Kathy, does an amazing job scattering brilliance throughout the store, and their decor is vibrant. I love their cards and coasters, and their lighting is so wonderful.

Josh took all the time we needed to pick out the best mats and frames. It looks fantastic! I went back a second time to have another print framed but when I went to pick it up, was dismayed to see that it didn't come out as I had envisioned. Without hesitation, Josh listened to what I was unhappy about, we picked out new materials, and when I picked it up the second time, it was exactly as I had envisioned, no extra charge. While there, I also picked up a few unique gifts. Only complaint is parking can be challenging but this will be my go-to place for anything I need framed.
