Clean and nice selection of quality clothing. Clothing displayed nicely. Found 5.50 sweater, dog harness, beautiful bowl and solid black work tee. Smelled nice too! read more

The Thrift Shop has very nice things, small but everything is good quality. The Book Nook is a really good book store too.

Great cause, clean and well organized store, friendly staff. Prices were reasonable. Didn't buy anything but would go back! Love the large selection of merchandise for animals. read more

I just wanted to put in a kind word for Animalsave Thrift Store. It's not the adoption portion we are talking about here, I have no experience with their animal adoptions. The thrift store has great stuff and reasonable prices and the staff has always been super with me. I got my parrot's cage here and they gave me a discount because a piece was missing. I am always sad to see so many at Sammie's, which I also love, but this place sits quietly with the parking lot empty. No reason for it. Consider them when donating and shopping, they are great people in the store. read more

The lady who rung me up for my purchase at the thrift store was almost comically rude, so much so that I thought she was joking at first. It was frankly bizarre. I won't be back. read more

We always find cool stuff at very fair prices when we shop at this store. We check in whenever we are in Grass Valley read more

Animalsave Thrift & Treasures - Thrift Stores Near Me - Grass Valley, California

We were over at Sammie's noticing the empty lot at Animal Thrift & Treasures. Odd, Sammie's lot is jam packed all the time. Could it be because of the incredibly rude lady with the short grey hair? I think so! This has been the talk among many other thrifters. It's too bad this particular volunteer hates her life and feels the need to project that onto her customers. And her obsession with masks. Get a grip! The covid scare is and has been over. Nowhere else in Grass Valley requires masks. That's not to say that all the volunteers are bad. But it only takes one to ruin it . And it really is supposed to benefit the animals, but I definitely won't be back read more

I went in here recently and was treated very rudely. I was going to apply to volunteer and was told to go over to the bookstore to check things out. They might need someone there. When I started talking to the volunteer there, after about 15 minutes or so, the telephone rang and she never got off of the phone or excused herself. They were getting close to closing and she just looked at me, and looked at her watch blankly. The other volunteer coordinator was rude to me as well. She was very short with me and acting dissuading about me volunteering there. read more

Nasty old bitches . Horrid customer service. Will never go back. I've a store credit for which I had to resort to swearing ( OH MY!!!!) . I'll pass it on to a street person . read more

I was struggling financially in 2016 while fighting for disability. I met with Carol the administrator and she belittled me and put me down for asking for help to feed my dogs so I wouldn't be faced with relinquishing them. She must feel high and mighty to think she's better than me. Shame on her for having a shallow and superficial disposition. After signing up I never went back for food. Because Carol is a horrible excuse for a human being. Nobody should be shamed for wanting to feed their pets when times get tight. read more

Animal Save is a thrift store that supports something near and dear to my heart; saving animals. What they do for the animals is wonderful and wholeheartedly commendable. I and my family think this aspect is fantastic. Where they slip is in the thrift store itself. The prices are outrageously high with absolutely no room for negotiation. For example, why would I want to pay $15.00 for a toaster oven that has no front door? I can buy a brand new one at K-Mart for $20.00! And it even comes with a front door! Lol Most of the staff there are very nice and very accommodating. However, there is a very elderly woman there who is an absolute monster! When I asked about the door-less toaster oven, she said "If you don't like it, don't shop here!" LOL Seriously?! We've helped trap stray cats for them, donated money, newspapers and food to them and adopted cats from them over the years. We also "USED" to actually buy items from their thrift store... that is before they started charging near full retail prices and posted the elder tyrant at the cash register! Lol The prices are going to kill the business. Like almost ALL businesses in Grass Valley, they think they need to jack up the prices in order to offset the high cost of rental space or something. All that does is detour people from buying and you end up with THE SAME OLD, DUSTY MERCHANDISE SITTING ON YOUR DUSTY, SHELVES! Price things to sell and you'll get more business and actually MOVE MERCHANDISE! And please, PLEASE... Put that elder tyrant in the backroom for the sake of your reputation as a loving, kindhearted establishment. She is definitely NOT who you want as the face of Animal Save. read more

Worth stopping, but you may be frustrated when you find something you want and it is overpriced. Like a pair of boys boots for $18, or a boys cowboy hat for $25, or a decorative duck for $125, or a cute bird print for $20. That being said, their kids books are $0.25 each, small paper backs are only $0.50, and large paperbacks are $1 (unless otherwise marked) and they have kids toys in a box for $0.10 each. I think records were $1 each and they had quite a few. They do have a lot of stuff, good variety, and good quality. Definitely check it out and decide for yourself. read more

Animalsave Thrift & Treasures - Thrift Stores Near Me - Grass Valley, California

They've gone some odds and ends for sure. But they are ridiculously overpriced. If the really cared about the animals, they would drop their prices that actually resemble those of a thrift store. Tried to buy a bocce ball set the other day before camping they wanted $25.00 for it. Pretty sure the set was made in the mid 80's. I asked if the price could be dropped a bit and the hesher working there, you'll recognize him, wouldn't budge. His reply "no not at all, I totally trust my pricer - it's marked $25 for a reason. You can come back on 50% off Fridays" I was going camping right then, not Friday. I'll order a nice set online. Sorry pups and kitties. To be fair the kid that volunteers there is grade-A nice, helpful and has great manners. To the hesher: it's a GD thrift store, get real, get flexible. read more

My daughter and I adopted our kitten here about a month ago. We LOVE him. He fits into our family perfectly. However, the process to adopt him was difficult. We were perfectly qualified but the women working here were rude and not conducive to an agency who should be working WITH people to give animals good homes. They were rude and condescending. All things considered, we are happy, but beware. read more

Clean for sure and great cause but not very friendly very small selections was not greated when I came in or left and closes very early

I support the cause which is why I go in. The store provides a much-needed income resource for Animal Save, a local pet rescue. The problem is that their selection isn't very good and the place is over-priced. There are many other thrift options in the county. My household is on a tight budget. If I can get something comparable for half the price I'm going to go that route. read more

I cannot rave enough about this organization. They do so much for stray and helpless domesticated animals. They rescued the fourteen puppies (see other review--Adobe Animal Hospital) and now my Mom is a volunteer at the thrift store. I would pay any price they asked for something I bought here because it all goes to a great cause and a great and caring organization that genuinely saves animals. read more

I love this thrift shop! It's great for kitchen ware, odds and ends (got some great camping gear here), and the prices are fair. I haven't had any luck with clothes so far, but they have decent selections. read more

On an excursion to Grass Valley today we were happy to come across this thrift store that benefits animals. It is large and clean and well organized, and has what I thought were reasonable prices on a multitude of items for sale. I came away with some speaker wire, several small picture frames, cat toys, and a piece of handmade jewelry. read more

I really want to like this place because of the cause they raise money for, but have to say prices are a little odd not a wide or interesting selection but most of all OMG SMELLY! Not old things smell but musty disgusting and dirty pee smell. Really puts you off buying anything there and I have to say its not a one off isolated instance, it always smells like this. And it depends on what day you go in as to what kind of reception you get. I want to say to some of those people "why bother to volunteer if it makes you so flippin grumpy, do something else instead of making the customers here feel as if they are an inconvenience?" read more

We were visiting family in Grass Valley, and decided to check out the Book Nook for some cheap reads. It did NOT disappoint. Paperbacks for a dollar? Hardbacks for $2? Murder mystery games complete with cassette tapes for another $2? (No tape player? No problem! Head across the parking lot to the thrift store and pick one up!) We spent about 45 minutes browsing the shelves and walked away with a giant bag of books- and a few games. Doug the salesman was friendly and funny as well. We will definitely be back next time we are in Grass Valley! read more

Love this thrift store, very clean and organized. I make sure to visit every time I'm in town. Great selection and prices, and friendly staff! Happy to shop and help Animalsave! read more

A great cause, and depending on the day (especially love their 50% off sales!!) you can get some really great deals. I have bought some of my favorite pieces of clothing and shoes there, my friend got her prom dress & shoes there years ago, and I regularly buy "dog towels" there (towels used for drying/cleaning dogs after walks, as I am a professional pet sitter and dog walker). read more

A really great place for animal lover, help with your pet or finding a home for a stray. However their Thrift Store employees are short and rude. I called once and was hung up on and another time asked someone if they had a electric heater and was to go look and see. Not nice since it was my first time there and didnt know where anything was. However, the checkout lady was generous, got cat food for my cat, etc. read more
