No one was there to accept them. The dock area was a complete disaster area, strewn with dumped stuff & downed signs. You couldn't even get to the door at the top of the ramp. A woman inside finally came out & mumbled something about everyone going on break at the same time before she helped take the boxes. I thought this might just be a one time issue with the dock. However, I was by there again a couple of days later & the dock was still an accident waiting to happen. It's an admirable concept but too bad it's not better managed. I won't be taking anything there again.

It was very well organized, however it was also higher priced than what I would be looking for in a thrift store. That said, I would come back when I pass through the area.

The thrift store itself is also connected to a historical home filled with antiques that you can look at and purchase. A short distance across the parking lot is another store that mostly has household appliances, lighting and fixtures. After looking through that space, I was not impressed. The thrift store itself is about as big as a convenience store where half the floor is given to clothing. They do have some books, games, a few furnishings, but not a whole lot else besides clothing. This place is worth poking your head into, but it's unlikely you'll find any collectible treasure.

Horrible customer service. These employees need to get over themselves. It's Uptown CHEAPskate- not Via die Condotti- yes, PLEASE look that up. The only person who showed any kindness was the young man with curly dark brown hair. The owner needs to invest in customer service protocols and courtesy training. Extremely disappointed!!

I loved this particular Uptown Cheapskate ever since I was a student at TXST. After graduating,…read moreevery time I'm in San Marcos, I always stop here and each time, I have always left with some items. After looking at some reviews, I do agree, majority of the clothes are leaning more towards the younger audience, but it makes sense because it is located in a college town. The clothes I see in Dallas are more diverse, but leaning more towards the mature side. So, the clothes they have do depend on the location of the Uptown. For this particular location, I think they're pretty good on having clothes that are trendy and up-to-date for college students. The most recent visit I had was very pleasant. They were doing an event for an anniversary and I was welcomed with a coupon at the door which was nice! I ended up a few things including a pair of Aerie Crossover Flowy Shorts for such an amazing price that I couldn't even find looking through Depop and Poshmark. After checking out, I was given a swag bag that had some cute pieces in there and I left with a cookie lol. I love and miss San Marcos so much! This place is also one of the reasons why I enjoy coming back. I remember thrifting in SanMo wasn't always the best specifically for me, but I think this place is guaranteed to have the items you're looking for. Of course, Uptown will cost more than a thrift store, but I don't mind that because it makes it more efficient for me to find items in excellent condition.

It's right at the entrance to the main square, which is filled with many similar touristy type places. My Wife loves browsing these stores, myself not so much. However this one was a cut above a lot of the others I've seen. In addition to the usual knick-knacks a place like this carries, they had some really nice looking items as well. Another thing struck me too, the nice, bright and airy feel to the place. It was really a very cheerful place and I spent a lot more time than I usually do in a place like this. And finally the beautiful red head who helped me. Although the store was pretty busy on a bustling Saturday afternoon, she took extra time to show me some cute things that she thought I'd like. I came to find out she was the owner and it was so refreshing to find someone as pleasant and enthusiastic in the store. If you happen to be in Wimberley, don't miss this nice little gem!

The staff always have something going on, moving this and that, but they always take the time to greet you and welcome you in. :) The first time I came to browse and ended up finding two cute treasures to take home. The second time I brought over something I didn't want anymore. The employee offered me some money for it but I politely declined (I'm glad enough it'll find a new home with someone who wants it!), and he politely offered me $5 off the next time I'm in. Pretty awesome of him! I look forward to making another visit in a few weeks or so when stock has a chance to rotate. There are two floors and plenty of stuff hanging from the walls and ceiling. You'll think you've seen it all, then turn around and realize how much you missed, haha!

All areas are organized and items are always marked.

There is plenty of space in the parking lot and super close to the national chain store next door where you could easily walk to if. needed. Staff is friendly and kind as well. We are greeted every time we walk in and when we head out. This Goodwill location is worth just a few hops away from South Austin.
