I stopped in here to break up the long, long drive to Hicksville. Unfortunately, I had forgotten to bring a bag of donations. I went in to look at the books. The selection here is smaller than at some other stores. I didn't find anything. I wandered around the whole store, and found a little collection of small plastic hourglasses, for 5, 10, 15, and 30 minutes. While not attractive, they will be useful for exercising. I also found a black wool hat, which is possibly a man's, and too large, but I will add a ribbon and roses. And a rain hat. It was raining. I always look at curtains, for some weird reason, but there wasn't anything interesting. There weren't any wool or cotton blankets. I'm looking for blankets for my mother. There was a lot of china, mostly ugly and made in China. I like European china. I didn't see any interesting vases, either. This is good, because I really don't have room. So any new vase would have to replace an old one. Both registers were unmanned, and three or four employees were standing around chatting. Because I only had a very few things, I did use the hated, dreadful self-checkout. Thankfully, it didn't yap at me. It looked like you could take the carts out of the store here, too, so points for that. I didn't need a cart, because I hadn't found any books. But it's nice to be able to, if needed. No one manning a register wasn't a plus. I probably could have asked. But for three or so items, it wasn't necessary. This wasn't a great store. I would be unlikely to return, as it is rather far away and the selection of books was poor. Basically 3.5 stars. But giving 4, because the carts don't have those horrible sticks on them. I loathe those things, mainly because books are heavy. read more

I agree with the other comments, prices have become higher. It's hard to find any item under $3.99 lately and they seem to be forgetting that they didn't pay for their stock! I also think the store has become messier and it gives the impression that no one cares or takes pride in this store. read more

Have been to many thrift stores savers was better when the first opened. Now they jack the prices up and for goodness sakes they receive second hand items mind you it's DONATED ! prices are unfair thrift stores are no longer becoming suitable for saving on a budget. You're better off going to the tjmax or Marshall's buying it new or going on second hand websites for better deals like Mercari, eBay XXI Fb marketplace or Poshmark. Don't even bother giving your items up here donate elsewhere! read more

If you are looking for used clothing this is the place. It has a lot of variety. But again it's a thrift store so they sometimes have more because they got a lot of donations and sometimes it's a little less. read more

I had a really disappointing experience with one of the employees at this thrift store named Bonnie. Thrifting is supposed to be fun and welcoming but this particular employee was extremely rude and unprofessional. From the moment I asked a simple question, they responded with attitude, seemed annoyed and acted like helping customers was a burden. Customer service makes a huge difference, especially in a place that depends on the community. A little kindness and basic respect would go a long way. Instead, I was left feeling uncomfortable and honestly didn't even want to continue shopping. I hope management addresses this because no customer should feel disrespected for simply trying to shop. I love thrift stores but experiences like this make people not want to come back. read more

I love going there for jewelry. The lady Bonnie at jewelry counter is very knowledgeable & helpful. The jewelry looks well laid out & easy to be seen. read more

My wife and I always make it a point to stop at the Jewelry department whenever we visit savers at commack and love to deal with Bonnie we always get a laugh out of her, she has a good work ethic and integrity. read more

Customer service is great. Layout is open space, where you are able to see the item. I feel places like this need to be to sale a product. Comfortable to shop. read more

Gotten so so so expensive here!!! Things are twice the price I'd find elsewhere. It's also gotten pretty messy. There are still finds to be made here though! read more

This is the NICEST thrift store in this area. There are always quality items and everything is neat and organized by SIZE which makes looking through items a LOT easier! Also, the jewelry section is VERY neat and organized thanks to BONNIE! The employees are ALWAYS super nice and help me and my mom all of the time! Worth the drive if you are coming from another town. The items are a lot nicer than other thrifts I have been to. Oh and ONE MORE THING....no FITTING ROOMS so be prepared! I think you have a week to return things for a store credit. The fitting rooms have been closed since COVID...nothing new here. read more

I am in LOVE with this place. I met up with one of my friends here and fell in love with it. I'm used to having the Salvation Army and other small places that barely had anything. There is more to get from here. What is love is the fact that when you donate, you get a coupon for 20% off. That's what I got the first time I donated. It's about 20 minutes away from me, which I definitely won't donate every day, but I don't mind going out there once or twice a month to donate. That's if I have the items. I have told total strangers in my neighborhood about it and how much more stuff there is to chose from. There are multiple registers open, but you have to check yourself out. Which I don't mind that much. I went on a Sunday once and it was busy. But then again I've always went when there wasn't that many people. I've found so many things that I definitely will use. A few things I've found were cast iron molds for the holidays, which I have been starting to become a baker within the last year or so. read more

Tired of the nasty disrespectful jewelry employee, I believe her name is Bunny , she wears wears a hat. She is beyond nasty , if she is that unhappy there why is she working there? I was looking for some jewelry for my teenage niece, I was very undecided and was asking to view some items. This lady proceeded to slam the doors and slam down a pair of earrings on the counter I wanted to see. I told her there is no reason to treat a customer like that. She did not seem to care what I felt. I did not purchase any jewelry from her and will not anymore. I shop in this store often, love the display of jewelry they have. This was not the first time I have been treated like this from the same employee. I have spoke to your front managers , as have many other customers about her attitude and nothing changes. Shame on Savers for allowing their workers to treat customers like that. I will no longer purchase any jewelry while that employee is present. I went to TJ Maxx and purchased some earrings there. read more

Need to correct issues when presented. Poor training. Very unfortunate to see this continue read more

If I could give this place 0 stars I would. The place is disorganized. I brought a bag of clothes to donate outside, and I was handed a coupon that is photocopied. It looked like a bootleg copy of a coupon. I brought it inside and when I was checking out I tried to scan the coupon and it didn't work. I asked for help and the person at the front said they have to manually input the coupon for the photocopied versions, which takes a lot longer to get help from the store worker who has to manually put in each number-this is a big time waster. Why don't they have the regular coupons? I was told they "haven't gotten them in yet and it's been a month since they had the regular [non-photocopied] coupons". While checking out I wanted to exchange a shirt I bought at a different Savers. You can exchange your items if you provide the proper receipt. I asked for assistance again and I was told, "We don't accept exchanges." What? I was told at other locations that they do. I called the store when I got home to ask about the exchanges, only to be told, "Yes, we accept exchanges with a receipt." Are you kidding me? Get your story straight. Like I said, disorganized. read more

not only do they not have fitting rooms but their return policy sucks if I can't try it on before I buy it I should be able to get my money back read more

it's the most reasonably priced thrift store Ive been to on long island. someone else said they were the most expensive but that's false. goodwill is known for being notoriously overpriced... savers in Commack, unique thrift In Levittown and northern thrift in hunt Station are by far the best 3 thrift stores on Long Island. I've been thrifting for 20 years now read more

i went in today and was surprised at how high the prices are! for reference i got a brand NEW pair of jeans from Target a couple of weeks ago for $8 (clearance) and Poppi new sweatpants (so the brand is very stylish and cute) for $6 (also clearance). I pop into Savers with this in the back of my head, the jeans were $13 and up for super worn fabric, i saw a thin dress you could find on Shein for SEVENTEEN dollars!! very disappointing read more

A bit run down and not very organized stock. The bric-a-brac is worth a look. Gotten some very decent clothing here in the past. The parking lot is strewn with litter which screams "We don't care!" read more

Wife and daughter went in to look for jeans and blouses. They end up getting 2 pairs of acid wash Lee jeans for $10, not a bad bargain at all. Place was kind of like a TJ Max ser up. Would come back again and check for other items next time I am nearby. read more

Savers - Thrift Stores Near Me - Commack, New York

When my husband went off to our local Goodwill with a carful of clothing and household items, he discovered that it had closed down, so he ended up in the Costco in Patchogue, where a friend he ran into told him there's a "great" charity right next to the Costco lot. Without first checking on their status as a nonprofit (which they claim to be), he unfortunately gave it all to the man at Savers. The Yelp website correctly lists them as a FOR-profit group that sells the items donated in their stores, discards an undisclosed amount of items, and donates an unspecified amount (presumably quite small) to an unidentified "charity". Having read the other Yelp reviews, I'm very disappointed we gave them anything and will never do so again. I wish I could give 0 stars for false representation of their business model and for-profit status. read more

Their prices have gone up. You're better off shopping at yard sales if you want to buy used/half decent stuff. Things that have the original store price on them are hiked up at savers. I saw a glass jar that had $2.99 from original store but savers marked it $4.99. read more

Went to look for a dress for my daughters play.... 10 minutes before closing and one staff member is literally yelling at shoppers with a hanger in her hand telling shoppers to get on line to pay. 5 min later she comes around with the same hanger, screaming at shoppers that the store is closed, and wouldn't move or stop staring at shoppers until they moved towards the cash register line.... To wait standing on line.... If I could give this place a zero I would but the other employees deserve credit for their help, and organizational skills. read more

For a thrift store prices are high. I found that if I am willing to put an extra $1 or $2 can go to a retail store and buy practically same shirt or pants brand new. Because of the high prices I stopped donating my clothes there. It is not right that they charge so much for worn/used clothing & other merchandise. read more

I like savers a lot bc they send coupons via email, have a rewards program & give you coupons when you donate to them (why would I donate anywhere else?), so what's not to love!? I wish these stores were in Nassau county bc we are severely lacking thrift stores (there is 1 savers, but it's not in the best area & it's just a weirdly configured, dumpy store compared to this location). As I wrote for another thrift store, sometimes I come to savers & leave with nothing, sometimes I leave buying a lot. Sometimes I find wild bargains, sometimes I wonder if the pricing person was drinking on the job (perhaps marked up due to the area/coupons?). Unlike the thrift store up the block, savers sells jewelry & actually has merchandise in their display cases. Overall, employees are decent & if there is a line, usually moves quick. Now, for the issues... Even before covid, the parking lot has had a lot litter in it. Considering the area/the appealing flowered turn in by Skechers off Jericho turnpike, it's almost shocking the parking lot of this place is so unkempt. Since covid, the inside of this store has gotten really... unclean (I should've taken a picture of what the cart area looked like when it was only half full). Some basic sweeping really goes a long way. Can someone please donate a broom with a pick up part & maybe a mop bucket? What's really crappy: a visit or 2 ago, I saw all the fitting rooms were removed. They've been closed since covid... since they were closed/now removed, it really limits what I can buy in terms of clothes bc I don't live close by & maybe make it out here once or twice a month. Please see the attached picture from my last visit last Sunday (9/26). Who is in charge of this store that thinks that kind of merchandising is ok!? Completely unshoppable & borderline dangerous bc someone could definitely fall. I can only hope this is a temporary "set up". read more

Savers - All fitting rooms removed (see the spots on the wall where they were) - this isn't just a gross mess, but it's borderline dangerous! - Thrift Stores Near Me - Commack, New York

I love this store. Last time I got a brand new pair of NB sneakers for $20. Some wallets, pocketbooks, seasonal decor. read more

This location is organized and has many selections. The staff is friendly and is always working to keep the shopping carts clean. Highly recommended. read more

the workers smell like urine! there was a guy who looked like homeless and peed in his pants. with so many clothes there he could wear something clean. today too there was a lady who was organising shelves. she smelled as if she peed in her pants. this is not the first time I'm running out of the store for this reason. common! how can you hire people who have huge issues with their hygiene?? its disgusting! not going there anymore read more

We visit a few times a year. Donate then browse store. My hubby and me have found some cool stuff. We're very nostalgic (b. '66 & '67) and love finding donated items that speak to our generation or are made in America (sadly, now a rarity). Regularly buy used saucer plates (sold as sets costing $3-$5 each). Use them to feed my 3 cats. Love feeding them on china or other fancy plate. Inevitably a few will break over time. I go to store and restock. They always have them. Totally recommend savers. read more

This is one of my favorite stores. Everytime i stop in, there is always something that catches my eye. I have found some really great clothes or shoes (even fancy brand names) for such an amazing price. The condition of the clothing is great for 2nd hand. As a mom of 3, my kids also find a lot of great clothes and even books. I feel like this store has something for everyone. They are always putting out new items so you never see the same stuff. Definitely worth checking it out. read more

I had some things to donate and figure I would come and check out this store as well. I was sad to see how high the prices where. Then I wonder what they did with the items they don't sell. Because there was allot. They told me they send it over seas! There is a huge documentary about how the Companies like this, Goodwill, Salvation Army are ruining the eco system of these other countries. Because they dump the cloths they get, it is coming up n at such large quantities they can't do anything with it. So when I found out they where doing this I was saddened by it. There price of goods is $0 price these items items to sell?!? Why price them so high no one buys them. To then send it over seas... ruining our planet. Just making things worse over greed! I won't donate here any longer nor go to there store. I hope they shut it down. read more

The workers at the register are very sweet and helpful. However the women stocking the shelves are not. Had several of them shove past me without so much as an "excuse me." One of them physically pushed me out if the way as she walked behind me. You can be as rude and unfriendly as you want but don't touch me. Seriously. Heard a woman up front complaining about being physically pushed by a worker and witnessed it myself with another woman in the store. read more

I love a good thrift store because I love a good bargain but this savers is a little janky. It's definitely more pricey, to me, than other thrift stores. There was a terrible smell that got stronger in certain areas but definitely did not leave completely no matter where I stood. Not sure I'll really be back unless I need something cheap for my kitchen or something, seeing as they had a pretty large section of household goods. Gave it two stars because after enduring the horrid stench 20 minutes I finally got lucky and ended up buying an ASOS jacket for 17 bucks. read more

Great Savers! Management and staff are super helpful. Lots of great finds with great parking lot so no issue finding a spot. Great prices with tons of items to review, read more

I stop here occasionally (usually once every two weeks). Today I decided to donate a printer. It was a HP scan, print, copy, fax machine. The guy in the store refused to take it. Without even looking at it He said it was too old. I was so angry i tossed it in what i thought was the garbage. He followed me and said it was not a garbage bin it was a donation bin, and again said that he could not take it. I took it back but then I went back again and saw him again. I told him the item was only four years old it in perfect working condition except it doesn't work with Apple software but works fine with windows. Only when I asked to see the manager did he accept the item. Considering that the printer is in better condition than most of the hardware I've seen in the store, I was amazed that this young inexperienced person would refuse a donation. I was both amazed and insulted. Will not be donating here agsin. read more

I think it really sucks that you can't try clothes on I travel real far to get there and it's not fair for the people who are honest why should we suffer that's just not right I would even let someone watch me try the clot on you need to get your dressing rooms back up it's just not fair cause when I come there with my family once a month we spend 500 dollars I rea don't want to have to go somewhere else but my husband doesn't want to go there anymore until you get dressing rooms and with all the money you make just put cameras in I don't get it why loose customers it's unfair to the honest people that's it read more

Takes advantage of customers, tells you to leave your stuff there, will take about 5 hours to go through, so my daughter said ok I'll be back tomorrow, on receipt he gives you it says you have to pick up clothes or accept the offer or the clothes get donated it was a 50 minute ride for my daughter to go back so I called and said I will pick up the clothes after work I'm 15 minutes away I can take a picture of receipt, owner says she has to come in and show identification, this is how they scam you into leaving your belongings there, he should have TOLD my daughter she needs to pick up clothes same day or you lose them! SCAMMER!! And very rude people in there! read more

The store is in total disarray. Piles of items on the floor in the aisles. This not only makes the aisles impassible, but downright dangerous. Why should I have to navigate a minefield of toy cars, clothes and shot glasses to make it from one end to the other? read more

I went here a few times recently. And I found legit one cool t shirt. I think they need to organize it a bit better. And it kind of felt like I was in another time zone, alot of old women blouses etc. I think they need to update their products! read more

if Savers is getting less donations and the store seems unusually sparse, it's not just bc of the economy, or bc of low staffing to put things on the floor. It's in part because they charge retail prices for items that are donated (aka used) like the jewelry, and donors of items whom also shop in the stores get pissed off with the high prices even with the coupons. When you donate items (like give them away for free), you expect the prices to be fair (the thrift shop way) on the other side. I am curious to know how Big brothers/Big sisters feels about this. I was surprised to see that the used jewelry prices in gold and silver were the same prices as Cosco (new jewelry pieces) from where I had just come. I am now very conflicted about donating what essentially seems like to Savers. I wonder if Big Brothers is benefiting from this price gauging. The owners of the private store "Savers" are to blame for this. The staff is incredibly professional, helpful and patient, a bunch of wonderful people. I still recommend checking these stores out but bring deep pockets. read more
