We were passing through and looked up local Thrift Stores and this came up. Sounds like it is a new location and you can tell that it once was a grocery store. We walk in and was immediately greeted. Nice. The store is very open and clearly separated by department. Everything is neatly organized and the store is clean. I didn't see any broken items or messy areas. There is a clothing menu that is priced according to type and not necessarily the brand so that can be hit or miss. While browsing, we had another employee sincerely greet us as well. Very kind. I liked that there was not obnoxious music playing or too loud. It was normal and at a low level. Even though the store was somewhat sparse, we managed to buy 5 items. I assume that since they are new, still waiting for donations. Prices are fair and less than what Goodwill charges. The other ding is that the clothing racks and sizing are non-sensical. Typically you size your racks going left to right or clockwise. The size ring should be in front with the corresponding size to the right of it and THEN it should snake to the other side like a figure 8 until you reach the end. I could not figure out where my size was because it would be on the right of the ring in one aisle but on the left of it on the next aisle. It got so confusing that I gave up. They must not have a real merchandiser on staff? Anyway, it was an overall positive experience and all of the employees was truly pleasant and kind. read more

The Salvation Army - Donation Center Near Me - Sparks, Nevada

Honestly, this is the WORST thrift store I have ever been to, and I LOVE thrifting and have been to many all over the country. The day I was there, it seemed like all the stuff had been HEAVILY picked over, like it had all been there for months on end. The worst of the worst. I methodically looked through every single item (which I always do, because I feel like if I don't look at everything, I'll miss that "magic item"). I usually spend 30-90.00 buying things from every category. Not one thing from any dept worth buying! Are people not donating there any more? Anyway, I may try them one more time, but I hate wasting time. Who doesn't? read more

I went specifically looking for toys and books for my daughter. We found a book she liked and some stuffed animals. She's currently obsessed with Minnie Mouse. I did find some pjs for myself too. Everyone was super friendly there. They were handing out hotdogs and sodas outside. They also offered one free toy or book to my daughter! That was pretty sweet. I just wasn't super impressed with their selection of clothes for kids or women's stuff. read more

The Salvation Army - 3 stuffed animals we got today. All Minnie Mouse. - Donation Center Near Me - Sparks, Nevada

Good size store with lots of stuff, pretty well organized easy to shop here. Prices were a bit higher than others

I remember visiting this store, but from the reviews, I'm not sure it's the same store. If it is, and you changed locations, then at the time of my visit, about a year or so ago, I found some very nice African pictures that are still hanging in my living room. I plan on visiting again, because I need a nice picture to showcase in my kitchen, hope I'm not disappointed. read more

I have received a friendly greeting every time I go in to this store. They have a big selection of books. The clothes were clean and in good shape. The store is clean and with good lighting. read more

I had not been in the store in quite some time, around a few years. This trip was impressive in that the store was clean and not at all crowded. I usually look for hobby stuff, bikes, sporting goods, and music stuff. After looking at a few items I realized why the store was so empty, their prices were INSANE! Seriously, junk that would go for pennies at a garage sale was going for between 50 and 100 bucks. I picked up an old fishing rod in a barrel (great way to present them and keep them nice!) that had the wrong reel on it. It was from the 1970s and it was a spinning rod that someone had stuck an old fly reel on, and it had a $59.99 sticker on it! Again, at a garage sale it would have been overpriced at 5 bucks. I don't know who prices these things, and where they get their reference points, but they are clearly out of their minds. There were several fishing rods and reels that were similarly overpriced, so this was not an exception. Some of the bikes there were literally priced at three times what they were worth. To make matters worse, the bikes were heaped in the corner like they were either just subjected to a tornado or having some sort of bike orgy. Who is going to want to buy an overpriced bike that is presented in that manner? Clearly no one. I may have figured out why the store was so empty, they lost the plot and are now selling things at pawn shop prices rather than prices that people can actually afford. And there was a sign saying to not make offers on things in a certain area of the store, that the prices listed are the prices, so get over it. I think I will give them another few years to get this sorted out before I return. read more

I have been stopping in here for the past couple months because it's near my allergist and I have found some great stuff! At pretty reasonable prices. Instead of being individually marked, most things are priced according to posted lists or signs, and only "special" items within those categories might have a higher individual price. To be honest I have mostly focused on dishes/ceramics/home goods to use either as cat bowls or smash for mosaics - and have found some great stuff! I also happened upon a stained glass turtle lamp and it works, YAY! They let you test stuff there if it is something electronic/with a plug. It does seem like they have good clothes for fair prices too and I need to go back when I have more time to sort through! The store is clean and well-lit, the staff are nice (but slow - definitely allow yourself plenty of time to check out) and it's big! Definitely worth checking out. They also accept donations there but I haven't done that yet, either. read more

See all

I can't believe I've never been in this store! My husband and I came in recently in search of snow pants (which unfortunately they did not have). But, the store was absolutely fantastic! It is bright and open and the layout is very accessible. All of the products/items are well organized and it's easy to search through it all. The prices were excellent! The staff are all very kind, welcoming, and helpful when asked questions. They have a small portion of the store sectioned off for antiques and I found the most beautiful full tea set that was 50% off - huge score! I had been looking for one for ages but they are generally so expensive, so I was truly excited to find this one. The ladies wrapped all of the dishes and boxed it up for safe traveling. We were also informed that our daughter was able to pick out a book or a stuffed animal for free! Will absolutely be back to find more treasures in the future! read more
