I've been to this thrift store before and have never had any complaints, but unfortunately this…read moreexperience was disappointing. I completely understand that coming in about 10 minutes before closing isn't ideal, and I was fully aware that the store closed at 6:00. I had no intention of staying past closing time. However, from the moment we were walking in they immediately turned Half of the lights off, and we were immediately told there were "less than five minutes" left, even though there was clearly more than five minutes until closing. After that, we were repeatedly reminded that they were closing. I understand giving customers a reminder, but I don't need to be told over and over again when I'm already aware of the time. What really bothered me was that at 5:55, an employee told us that they were closing, even though the posted closing time was 6:00. At that point, I knew I only had five minutes left and was prepared to leave by 6:00. It just felt like they were so adamant about getting us out that we were made to feel unwelcome for simply walking into a business while it was still open. If customers aren't supposed to come in during the last 10-15 minutes, then the store should have an earlier last-entry time posted. Otherwise, customers who enter before closing should still be treated respectfully.

The only time to come is when the deals are going on and you have a coupon. I'm sorry to say that the days of uncovering a hidden gem for a steal of a price are gone and the other local thrift stores are not much better. These places have grown wiser to the resell market and want to make sure the prices are comparable with eBay and the like. I just drop things off and don't go in.

I was here a couple days ago and had an okay experience. I've been here a couple times before and…read moreit's always been clean and organized. Lots of men's, women's, and kid's clothing to look through, although there aren't many men's jeans. I have no problem with the store itself. I do have a problem with one of the staff members. My boyfriend asked a woman for a fitting room and usually we go together so I can give my input. She opens the door, lets my boyfriend in and then lets it close in my face as she walks out. I go to let myself in and she says, "you can't be in there!" with a rude tone as she walks away. I'm not mad that I wasn't allowed in the fitting room. I definitely understand and respect store policies, but it's the delivery she used that upset me. She didn't even look back. Now, I'm on the younger side and I can see how she might assume we'd do "bad" things, but it's not nice to be mean about it. While I'm waiting outside the fitting room, I could hear and see her pacing around making sure I didn't sneak in. I don't get it...The whole time we were there, and the times before, we've always been respectful. It ruined my experience that day. A simple, "hey sorry you can't be in there with him" or "our policy only lets one person in the fitting room at a time" is just as easy.

This antique mall is really big and there were plenty of amazing things that were featured. I was impressed that they sold modern items like Pokemon cards or am I just getting old myself. We spent nearly an hour checking out everything that this place had to offer and if this is your first time here you will definitely get lost in all the treasures getting lost in a variety of rooms. The basement was probably the least interesting room that they had to offer. I did enjoy various goodies that they did have nonetheless it's also the only antique store open on Sunday too. I did enjoy their Wall of Shame at the very front. Overall, I thought this place was really good and worth checking out!

Like Your Best Friend's Closet, shopping at Your Best Friend's Home is like visiting family. Everyone is so nice and helpful. The customer service really is spectacular at these stores. This is a store that's figured out the fine line between helpful and annoying. Because it's a consignment home goods store, you never know what to expect. You can, however, expect the prices to be pretty darn good and the quality to be top notch. The owner is really good at selecting quality pieces for the store. Both stores are located in a tiny strip mall. Parking can be tight when it's busy, but for the most part, it's not a bad lot. It's also located off the main drag, so it's not too hard to pull into the strip mall or out of it! They keep an active social media page, so be sure to 'like' them to keep up with their sales and merch! Overall, this is a great place to check out if you're in the area!

Small activities like their backpack drive in August and the Toy Drive in December reach hundreds of kids in McHenry County.

April is Child Abuse Awareness month and the group kicks of the Blue Ribbon Campaign with events and activities for the whole family, ending with a charity 5K race to benefit the organization. Volunteers are always needed and are a big part of what makes this group so special. It's an example of what a few dedicated people can do together- have a huge impact on the community! From the web site: It's Our Little Secret (IOLS) is a non-profit organization comprised of volunteers dedicated to providing a voice to emotionally, physically, and sexually abused children and teens through advocacy, creative expression and various programs. It is IOLS' mission to promote a healthy recovery for the abused children and youth, and to stop the destructive future behavioral patterns of the abused towards their own and other children. It's Our Little Secret's goal is to make a difference in the lives of the children and youth through our various programs and services. It is our goal that the youth that we serve will learn to love themselves and enjoy life, learn to LIVE and not just survive.
