Yes, I am a fan of this store. Its not for everyone. But if you are looking for a hidden treasure…read morethis is a great store. You never no what you might find here. Everything from DVD's to Toys to Tiffany Jewelry and everything in between. You have to realize this isn't a regular department store. This is an overstock, liquidation and bargain store. So yes there are some damaged packaging and returned items. You need to check things but if you don't mind doing that there are bargains to be had. They do have a 30 day return policy with your receipt, so keep your receipt. Each day is a different sale too. A different department will be on sale. You can call and see what will be on sale or check their website to see what is on sale that day. The website isn't always updated though. You can find some nice things, even furniture at great prices, you just have to look over things. I recommend checking it out and looking for those bargains. Have fun shopping.

While there are definitely some treasures and deals to be found, it's ultimately a downgrade in quality from the previous location, at least at the current time. I also want to note that despite loudly advertising that "all clothing is $2.98," they have a section at the front of higher priced clothing items. I admit I think this is a rather duplicitous business practice. It also seems random what clothes are put up there. Some of it was the same fast fashion that infests the rest of the clothing racks, while some finer materials and true vintage was languishing on the $2.98 racks. It just didn't make sense to me! It's worth a stop if you're in the area, but I wouldn't go out of my way for Frugal's.

I found the parking lot to be depressing as if I was in the middle of no-where with civilization being hundreds of miles away. I'm just adding this point as it was the way I felt. That said, the staff friendly and most of the patrons were very nice. Please note Thrift stores are very hit or miss so going from week to week can result in a highly different experience. I'll be the first to admit, all thrift stores have a funky smell to them and I found Frugal's to be especially smelly; nothing to the point of unbearable but it lingers for the duration of the visit. Now in terms of being what do they offer, well pretty much everything and anything. Furniture, clothing, toys, books, CDs/DVDs, cookware, you name it. I found the kitchen section in terms of pots, pans, mixers and things of that nature to be very sparse while their main attraction was clothing. Off in the back right, one can find a small furniture section with some decent to horrible offerings. I liked some of the books they had and was extremely tempted to pick something up since I found many that perked my interest. Their music selection had me laughing as I noticed a couple odd bands from the 80s, 90s and beyond which I don't think anyone would buy. Color Me Bad anyone? I don't recall seeing much for motorized lawn equipment but I was in and out relatively quickly. Overall, thrift stores have a very particular clientele and subculture. I'm pretty sure if you're reading this you know how things go, so I'm not going to try and upsell you, rather give you the thumbs up to come on by and see what they got. It's safe and the people are nice while have a very large floorspace open to many different reasonably priced objects.

Yea, I don't either... this has got to be the worst collection of retail stalls that I've ever encountered. When I walked in a gentleman at a table told me there was no charge to enter. Upon exiting, I was ready to ask for a refund of my time and effort spent walking around this maze of stalls. There is no clear pathways and I encountered many dead end aisles that led me to wonder if i was going to be lured into a backroom and robbed. Thankfully I was not assaulted but the clientele looked desperate. I can't believe the fire marshall allows this configuration in such an old dilapidated building. I normally would say enter at your own risk, but in this case - just don't enter. Find some garage sales - they are going to offer a better and safer selection.

To say that Nothing is Over A Dollar isn't true at all. Things are priced from 1.00 up. The thing is, I've seen boxes of candy for a dollar, that should be priced .50, cause it's .69 at Wal-mart. They are kind of unclean on the floor. It just doesn't feel like a clean store. They have trinkets that are labeled as gifts. I saw a schnauzer figurine for 5.00 who's eyes were crossed.. They have generic toys of not much worth. Books that also seem generic. I buy paper plates here, Hane's Taggless t's, and gift bags. They have clothes, but if you can afford better, I'd not chance putting any of these (except if it comes in a package, like the Hane's T's), through the wash machine. The jewelry isn't always a dollar, and isn't worth it if is 1.00. This used to be a 1.00 store, and it is huge. It is very large, but when it switched up the prices, it's hardly worth going. They still have Nothing Over A Dollar int he store, but if you ask the cashier (there's usually just one), she'll tell you to watch the prices. If the item says something else, then that is the price. Hmm....

The woman there, her name was Katy, literally ran outside with me while I'm holding all of my items with an umbrella. She walked me to my car trying her best to kee me dry!

Things are organized by color and squeaky clean. The whole place reminds me of what thrifting felt like as a kid. Oodles of treasures and fun things to look at. It's like being given free rein of a candy shop! There's a large selection of home goods, tchotchkes, clothes, bedding, jewelry, and kids books. Old-fashioned dolls, tools, dishes, party supplies, holiday decor, movies, comics, craft supplies. They don't have tons of furniture because the store is pretty small but what they do have is nice and reasonably priced. My only complaint is that the fabric prices seem a bit steep, especially for the small size of the cuts. Other than that, a perfect thrift store with excellent prices and a wonderful person attending the counter! I will 100% be back!

We coordinated (ok, my wife coordinated) a pickup from our curb with them and I have to say it was the smoothest donation process yet. We've done things in the past with a few other organizations that were good, but not as communicative. This group called when they were 30 minutes out, wrote up a receipt and left it with us (all masked up during Covid) and took every single item. When you're clearing out, I feel like there are three tiers: Sell; thing like our newer dresser, bed frame, and other items that people are always going to need. We used FB Marketplace and sold each item in 24 hours or less. Donate; items that might be more niche like art, TV stands, end tables that need a little love, etc. That's where we utilized Habitat. Scrap/trash: We utilize KCMO's large trash pickup and while they have skipped it a time or two, it's pretty good overall. I haven't been into their store to shop around myself, at least not yet, but it seems promising. Highly recommend if you have donations that you can't load or haul yourself!
