I happened upon this thrift store that doubles as a skateboard store, and triples as a worship…read morecenter on Sundays, and quadruples as a non-profit also, apparently.
The first time I stumbled into this store, I was shocked to realize it was more than just the skateboard store servicing that demographic. I lived that lifestyle at a different and younger time in my life. Now, I want thrift items and I want them decently priced.
So...as for the stock. It's a rather small store but the stock 'rocks.' It has gotten even better since that first time I went, as I recently shopped 'tili dropped a few weeks ago, and spent less than $100 with clothes and jewellery, and high-end facial products, and winter gear, and footwear, etc. Vv-boutique has been getting worse and worse, and u can rarely get that bargain Hunter -high. It's just too high-priced. But, One Love keeps me 'high on natural love and good ol' fashioned epic deals and steals.
I have been recommending this store to friends and family and now to strangers because not only is their mission just and decent and altruistic, they have a great store that has great stuff.
As for the staff, the first time I went there, I was having a rough day and two volunteer??/ staff ladies took time out of their day to reassure me that there are kind and caring folks still in the world. I needed that human interaction so badly that day and they went above and beyond to say a prayer for me and simply just hug me. Trust me, I needed that that day.
Anyway, I plan to check out the worship service on Sunday evening as it seems pretty intimate and safe from the traditional church experience....cough cough.... Hypocrisy that drove me away from religious institutions, initially. I can't and won't return to that, but I will check out this seemingly safe environment as a way back into some spirituality. I promise to post about that if and when I do attend. I have a feeling it's exactly what I'm looking for.
Ok, so my review is looking "pretty epic" says Yelp so Im'a gonna post it now.
People, check-out this thrift store. You won't be disappointed. It just gets better and better every time I visit.
Peace and one love, y'all, cuz "let's get together and we'll be alright."
