I've been thrifting for many years, and unfortunately this store is no longer one of my regular…read morestops. Over time I've noticed prices steadily increasing to the point that many items are priced at or above what I can find online. In my experience, pricing often appears to be based on asking prices rather than actual sold values, which makes it difficult to find genuine thrift-store bargains. Many collectible items seem to remain in the display case for weeks or months without selling, suggesting the pricing may not reflect current market demand. Selection can be hit or miss, and I rarely leave feeling like I've found a great deal anymore. While some staff members have always been kind and helpful, the overall shopping experience feels much less welcoming and community-oriented than it once did. As someone who both shopped and donated here, I've decided to take my business and future donations elsewhere. I personally recommend checking out Thrifters Rock or Family Thrift in Palmer, where I've had better luck finding reasonably priced merchandise.

We have been loyal customers of the Deuce ever since we moved here two years ago…read more It is one of the better second hand stores. There's not much to it. Folks donate junk they don't want, we show up and buy it. Charities benefit. If they've over priced, we decide how badly we want it and factor in that all proceeds benefit a cause. This store is really well organized with a huge variety of junk. Prices are great, especially for clothes. They have a massive dvd and book collection. Even a nice selection of Alaska based writings. Take care, remember it's donated stuff other people didn't want. Sometimes that means damaged or in need of repair. Buy accordingly. I know it's for a cause, but there are times when it's fun to dicker, especially when something's broke and so are we! I've bought cool shot glasses, growlers, tools and OSU Buckeye dolls. I've even found my favorite candy bars at a nice price. Even at their peak the line moves quickly so it's a very efficient process. The folks are fun to deal with, super friendly! 08/23

Way overpriced. Volunteer cashier wasn't informed that…read more"tips" pay the mortgage to help continue "the good work." If that's a fact, post a sign on the counter so no one has to feel awkward. Sketchy mission. If it's a nonprofit, why are cheap Chinese jewelry and other brand new items being sold? Where are all the trainees learning a craft?

This store is a nonprofit who takes donations, repurposes old items and uses the money back into…read morethe community. The employees are always really nice. There are a ton of stuff in here you might need 30+ minutes if you're really looking. They have an array of items you can by. Mostly furniture, DIY materials and stuff people hand make, crafts, clothes, dishes, Alaska stuff, jewelry. Etc. random stuff. Things I have bought: a car trash bag, dryer balls, laundry detergent strips, sticker, I forget what else really. They have a small kids area with toys and clothes, women's clothes upstairs, a few rooms with dishes, an Alaskan section, a reusable item section, a craft room, and space for volunteers to repurpose stuff before they sell it. They also do craft classes here but I'd check the website for up to date info. They also have a cafe now that rotates who is cooking. I have never seen the coffee bar operational they have nobody that runs it. I dont know if the lady working in Remade would make you a coffee or not if you asked. They are located between Huffman and de Armond road on old Seward. Usually open 11-5 and closed sundays.
