Simply horrible. Cluttered and junky. Outside of the store looks like a junk yard. The cashier seemed very nonchalant about the business.

Lots of stuff. I guess if you went there often you could find a deal but nothing I wanted today. Mostly things I would get rid of myself.

Humane Society's Mountain Shelter Thrift Store - Used Dishes

Humane Society's Mountain Shelter Thrift Store

I'm a local, and this is my honest experience…read more This place has gone downhill. What once felt like a nonprofit thrift store serving animals and the community now feels more like a for-profit or consignment-style operation, except the items here are donated, not consigned. Prices have grown exponentially. I've personally seen used Danner boots priced around $175 for used shoes, dish sets priced $50-$100, purses commonly priced $15-$100, and everyday household items priced far beyond normal thrift store standards. Cups that should be 50 cents are a couple dollars or priced much higher. Used shoes are often far outside what locals can reasonably afford-$10-50. Again for used shoes!!! This is not consignment. These items were donated by local people out of the goodness of their hearts with the expectation that they would stay affordable and accessible. Blairsville is still a lower-income area overall, even with tourism. Pricing should reflect the people who actually live here. They also removed the monthly $6 bag sale, blaming theft. From a customer perspective, this feels less about theft and more about greed. Locals have complained repeatedly and they ignore them citing their same excuse. I've been in the store multiple times and heard shoppers openly say things like, "That's outrageous" while looking at prices. I've also been informed that this store is generating millions in revenue each year in a small town. I can't confirm if this is accurate but there are some reliable sources that are getting very fed up with the greed from the people at the top and that work at the store. If that's even remotely accurate, locals deserve transparency. Where is the money going? The board members are reportedly not local, and it shows. The community connection that once existed feels gone. As a low-income local, I used to enjoy going into this store. It was friendly, welcoming, and community-focused. That atmosphere is not there anymore. If you want to donate to a place that clearly gives back and shows where the profits go, I strongly recommend: * Habitat for Humanity Blairsville-prices are starting to elevate to but staff is super sweet * Safe Thrift Shop * Empty Stocking Thrift in Blue Ridge, which actively supports their community and prices items fairly This community needs accountability and transparency. A nonprofit thrift store should not price out the very people who helped build it.

Very well organized place with lots of items to choose from. I also like taking my cast offs there…read moreto donate. It helps other people and also helps me get rid of things I am not using.
