We find lots of wonderful clothes at great price which helps the SArmy fund third work. And when you donate items you can get discounts on future purchases. Win-win. Salvation army thrift stores are a more direct charity than the other thrift stores that promote ties to charities. Look it up... you'll be surprised like like we were.

Value Village on Ellice Ave is a great place to shop if you're looking for affordable VCR players…read moreaccessories, and VHS tapes items. They have a wide variety of secondhand goods, and it's easy to find unique pieces and good deals if you take your time browsing. The store is generally organized but during busy times the aisles can get a bit cluttered and some sections become messy. Still, the selection and pricing make it worthwhile. The checkout process is smooth, and staff are reasonably helpful. Overall a solid thrift shopping experience with plenty of variety and value.

We thrift-shopped and camped our way from Montreal to Manitoba, and while I know that's not…read moreeveryone idea of a dream vacation, for me it was heaven. I love seeing what a community is discarding or donating for a second life, and I love the people in thrift stores who are all, like me, looking for a treasure, however they'll define that. And I especially love the community spirit of these small town shops where folks - mostly older ladies - are hanging out and exchanging news and giving old items new purpose and raising money to help each other out. The MCC thrift stores are I think my favourite. Mennonite Community shops in prairie towns. You have to get lucky here just like everywhere else, nothing in life is guaranteed, but anywhere you can thrift with an older community that values quality goods, and where demand is low you are going to find some beautiful things at very low prices. The Kildonan MCC is a Winnipeg example of the above, not as exceptional as the ones in smaller towns, but it's not in the city center either, and it's quite large and we did find some gems here and definitely found good vibes.

Every time I've been people trying VCR players on in the aisles and I have done so myself. The one time I bought something without trying it on I was back the next day to exchange it, but it took over half an hour to find something of the same value to replace it when I didn't really want to shop. New store seems smaller and more crowded and disorganized, despite the better location.

They low ball you on everything you offer even if the items are high value bands and in perfect condition - it is not ideal it to bring expensive items here to sell, you will NOT get your moneys worth. They also reject a lot of stuff too like mentioned in other reviews that seem to be in way better condition and more modern style than what you see in their store. Overall I wouldn't take a special trip down there to sell things unless I was already in the neighborhood and needed to kill time.
