We found a lot of quirky and fun items as well as some items of high-quality that can be used on a daily basis. I was impressed by two things: 1) the prices were excellent, nice a low as one would hope to see at a thrift store and 2) all items were very clean. There were plenty of bargains for everyone in the family. Shoes, clothes, toys, furniture and fabulous items to use in the kitchen.

I cannot recommend Long White Beard more! I found Dan & Shelby on Etsy many moons ago, and ordered…read morea simple TV stand from them. I was so in love with it, that I asked them to build a closet system for me that I drew out. They took my design and made it come to life with beautiful precision. From there, they custom made a vanity for my guest bathroom, a live edge dining room table, live edge shelves for my master bathroom, and a long floating shelf for our bar area. They are not local for me (I'm in CT, they're in MI) but that doesn't stop me from going back time and time again. Each time, they have been quick to respond, helpful with suggestions and kept me abreast of the progress with my pieces. I have loved working with LWB and every time I have an opportunity to bring them back into my home and recommend them to friends, I do. If you want beautifully made pieces created by service oriented folks, LWB are your people. They certainly are mine.

I hope Tractor Supply realizes how incredibly lucky they are to have people like you guys on their team. You've earned my business for life.

Customer service it goes a long way and glad I found it here. Long story short, new to area of…read moreOxford. Prior to living here we lived in a condo for the previous five years. When living in a condo one does NOT worry about the lawn, the snow etc. So when we bought the condo most of my outdoor tools went to other family members or friends including a pretty darn nice snowblower. So last year when we settled in (Feb 2021) we found ourselves needing stuff or hiring it done. Could not find a snow blower late in the season but started looking just the same and with urgency before the winter of 2022-23 begins. In the Oxford area I have been dealing a lot with Tractor Supply and Ace Hardware. Both are convenient and close to my house, both have excellent customer service from the time you walk in AND pricing is competitive if not exact to the big box stores like Home Depot. What I really liked here above the other stores was I was able to touch and feel, compare to other brands for myself. When I asked questions, they had answers. Lastly, I just had recent knee replacement surgery. There was no way I could lift in or out of my truck. Help?!?! Of course they would deliver and did. Thank you TSC for being able to accommodate me

Restore is a large, clean, beautiful space for donations and purchases! Drive to the back for donations, and pull right up to the acceptance garage, the kind and professional gentlemen will take it from there. Should you desire a receipt, they'll make that happen too (just know that the paperwork wants an itemized donation list). Highly recommended.

Mom and I enjoy thrift store shopping and Salvation Army is our go to thrift store. We like to try…read morethe different thrift stores near us so today we traveled from Sterling Heights to this Salvation Army in Oxford. I would have given 5 stars but I dinged one star for two reasons: the prices at all Salvation Army's has jumped AND they have removed the option to buy jewelry! I really should take away two stars for the removal of jewelry! They used to sell sunglasses, watches, jewelry and other unique pieces behind the glass area (not sure, I forget what it is called when someone has to help you when something is behind glass). A few months ago or last year we noticed Salvation Army would bag a bunch of jewelry up in one bag and say it was $70 or $100 - um, really? You couldn't see the pieces and WTH, why do you think we are at a thrift store...like I have $100 for a guess what's in here bag? There is plenty of parking, the employees are professional and kind. The store is well laid out lots of options for buying...ahem, minus jewelry!

I don't know how, but this specific Salvation Army location always has the best pieces. Every time…read moreI'm here I go to the cash register with a full cart. Of course, like any thrift/donation store, there are a lot of questionable garments and items that sit on the racks for months as well as items from shady brands like Shein. This is in no way their fault, of course, but it is something to mention because, yeah, there's a LOT of Shein. However, there has not been a single time where I haven't found several QUALITY pieces of clothing for me and my family. I always find genuinely nice items here from brands that I wouldn't be able to afford retail as well as more common brands, and my favorite, vintage! I love being able to enjoy shopping sustainably here and helping add less clothing to the landfill a few miles away!

Found some glass jar containers with metal lids on them, but the glass is much heavier than I was hoping for. Still on the hunt for a tin container with a see-through lid and secure clasp.

Text convo with a friend this evening:…read more Me: Unrelated to anything I just spent 2 hours at the Container Store and have never been happier. Friend: Wherever we can find peace! Ahh, peace. I don't know the meaning of the word. Though I'm trying! As a maximalist gal with ADHD in a small house I'm forever in search of an organizational and functional storage plan I can stick with. Through much introspection and many self help books I recently realized my issue is "if I can't see it, it doesn't exist." Which means I'm forever buying cans of black beans when what I really need is great northern and constantly getting takeout because "there's nothing in this house to eat." So, with this new clarity in hand, I've taken to overhauling my kitchen in the new year. And the Container Store has been clutch in providing solutions to my storage issues. A pantry that requires a step ladder to reach? How about a pull down spice rack? Deep drawers without dividers? How about stacking bins so I can use the vertical space, too? Expired baking ingredients from the last time I tried to reorganize but didn't realize until it was too late that the jars I put everything in don't stack effectively, leaving a teetering mess I've been afraid to disturb? How about a baking pantry storage set with equal sized widths for easy stacking? (And built in brown sugar softeners and powdered sugar sifters, too! Be still my heart!). Weird corner cabinets that are deep caves of awkward, oft unused space? Why not some pull out shelving storage? And so much more! Jar openers! Lemon keepers! Fancy pens! NOTEBOOKS AND PLANNERS! Omg. I haven't even begun to talk about the craft storage. What's not to love??? Well, ok. I guess the prices. Which can be high. But they carry many solutions I can't find anywhere else so sometimes I have to bite the bullet and pony up. I do my best to try and stick to their in-house products to save a bit of scratch tho. And becoming a rewards member will net you some solid coupons now and again. In fact, today I happened to have a 25% off coupon so I stocked up on those deep drawer organizers. It took me a while to find the right combo/configurations for our unusually sized cabinetry but I think I figured it out thanks to the countertop they have with grids to help you easily measure. Very handy. Staff here is lovely and ever so helpful. It's never a cheap visit here but it's always a beneficial one. And hey, thanks to my new pantry risers and lists of items we have taped to the inside door (another new trick!) I now know we have 7 cans of black beans, 4 of which are low sodium, and the last time I went to the grocery I got the right beans at last.
