    This new location is a Tiny little store. Especially the back room where they have all the clothing, shoes and accessories. If your claustrophobic don't go in there. There's hardly any room to move. This place is pricy too. Most of the dishes are marked at antique store prices. Jewelry was pricy as well. They did have some clothing bargains outside on the rack. Parking on the street only and challenging to find a spot close by.

    50% off rack in back next to the shoes

    You can always find something interesting at the Helpful Shop. The Volunteer staff are friendly, courteous, and of course, always helpful.

    Really cool place next the roller rink. I couldn't skate so due to injury so I browsed around…read morewhile my family skated. I wasn't planning on really buying anything but then I found some good loot. Was going to be like 1-2 things at first, but quickly ballooned to like 20 items kids went wild over the hellokitty items (we did too too secret though so don't tell anybody). It was good stuff and good prices. Fitting rooms were tidy had 2 small hooks worked out for stuff brought in stuff that was tried on, and doors have a lock I'm sure key opens but at least psychological comfort lol. Special shout out to Bonnie very helpful. Also there's a barcode at the front can do a Google review for 10% off it just kept trying to login into my school account I don't like using my legal name lol, but it was fine.

    First time here. Wasn't greeted, Wasn't helped even though I walked through the store looking at…read morevarious items. I was basically ignored by the 2 girls working here until I accidentally walked through their work space and was told to leave this area. It looks like the rest of the store, in the front near where you'd check out. I found their merchandise to be pretty pricy more than Goodwill. They only have clothes and shoes with a very tiny selection of jewelry. The only sale items I found were outside on a clothing rack which were only 25% off the original price. Nothing 50% off. I was the only customer there. Definitely not the best prices in town, if you want that go to the thrift center around the corner. Now that they've moved next door into a larger space it's much nicer. This time I was greeted but it's still really expensive here. Used Levi jeans were $50.00! And 4 vintage Pyrex cups were $25 .00.

    The day before my daughter's wedding, we went in to panic mode as we realized the dress she was…read moreprepared to wear would not work. (Leaving out details on purpose.) While a friend was prepared to drive her dress over last minute we decided to make a stop at our favorite neighborhood consignment shop. When we walked in and asked Amber if they had a wedding dress, we were so relieved when she said there was one in back. It took our breath away as she carried it out!! When my daughter was in the dressing room, Amber astutely whispered the price but told us to just let her try it on. We're so thankful because our frugal daughter wouldn't have even put it on. We just had manicures so Amber helped button up the almost perfect fitting dress. My daughter looked like a beautiful bride! As we walked out the stores two ladies from our incredible community were there and offered to help pay for the dress. I didn't feel like I could accept such an offer and Amber recognized it needed facilitating. Again, her discretion as well as the ladies' went in to play as they worked out a donation toward the dress. Amber even contributed as well! I just had to share this experience to show Jet Set is not just another store, it's part of our community and the greater good... it's part of our lives! This isn't the first time we found just the piece we needed at the right time, but it's certainly the moment that will forever stick. Three cheers to Jet Set and our close community making good things happen in our lives!

    The pieces here are limited and I messaged the owner before hand on Instagram to confirm there…read morewould be pieces in my size. I got there and there were about 4 to choose from. The shop keeper assured me if I went to their other location in Santa Cruz there would be more but getting stuck on highway 1 traffic was not in the plan for that day. Overall, it would be nice to have a larger more diverse selection. Most pieces looked like they were for people 45+
