I wouldn't consider this a thrifting store in the terms of what thrifting means today. When you…read morethink thrift you think consignment/resale/saving the landfill/vintage finds. We walked right in and out of this store. It's more like a section that feels like a rummage sale very small area (and that would be the "thrift" section) and the rest of the store is more like a bargain store. New in the box items at low value. Like items were purchased in bulk from pallets or via some other option. Which that's fine but it's not a proper advertising to put this in the same category as all the other thrift stores. Since the expectation was thrift and not bargain buys (hobo, big lots, family dollar) the rating is based on the category of that makes sense. Now if it was noted as a standard store or bargain/discount space I'd add one star based on what I saw. The store was also very dimly lit and no one greeted us/saw no staff so that added to a quick in and out visit!

I love to thrift but when every shelf and surface is overflowing with things, mostly thrown onto it with no type of order or grouping, I can easily get over stimulated. I'm sure there are great finds but I couldnt even get myself to look. I would say come if you are good at rifling thru piles of things

Stopped by while in town on my way to the airport. I love checking out thrift and vintage stores…read morewhen I travel. I found some really cute items. A gorgeous mint maxi dress and cap sleeve blouse and few other items that I left behind, which I was kicking myself when sitting on the plane. Definitely spend some time looking through their racks and tables. Prices were a bit on the higher side for some things and reasonable for others. Will stop by again when I'm back in town.

I love Alive and Fine! Met the owner, Ashely, at an end of summer rummage at her home. She is…read moreradiant and has a bitchin eye for vintage attire.

They have a cool area that clothes are brand new with store tags on it as well the thrift store price. You can get a great deal especially if you find the 50% off tag or .99 tag. They have a huge book selection. The store itself is so stocked and very nicely set up. I could spend hours in there but it can be a little bit packed. The cashiers are so. Ice. You can tell who their every day costumers are because I heard a few address some by name. That is so sweet. If you like value, a cool gold or two or three do your self a huge favor and go. If nothing else the yummy popcorn is so well worth the drive.

Here I am! What a great day. This is probably one of my favorite St. Vincent's. Today I just…read morehappened upon four summer dresses all the same except for the color. Better yet, they fit. There was one color I wasn't that nuts about. So I only got three of them. They are a thick cotton T-shirt material. And they were seven dollars apiece. What a bargain. My friend got two pair of shoes. One pair was a bionic and the other was Clark.

This store doesn't just talk about antiques or carry a few things for the upscale. The Olde Store…read moreis the everyman store. Things here are like that found in nearly any old farmhouse or home in the late 19th and early 20th century. It took me back to a combination of my grandfather's tool shed or my grandparents farm home. It was fun and a tad sad. The owner has just taken over the property in the last couple of months, so not everything is priced, but if you ask, he'll be able to tell you. It's clear inventory is still being moved around. I never stopped by when the Olde Store was under the previous ownership, so it may be different for those who have. My visit, too short to spend time looking at things in detail, did allow me to see the treasures. Glassware, china, curios, a wood burning stove (at least I think it was), sanders, a dial phone, toys, paperback books from the 1950s or 60s, I think, pictures, a small selection of jewelry, periodicals, and even several photo albums with photos from the 30s. These weren't just random, though, the photo albums were themselves from the era, with the black pages and glued backed corners. It was a pretty impressive historical record. The Olde Store, should it keep the charm it has, will be a fun shop to visit again. For someone looking to capture a perfect antique, it will be a good place to start the search.

This is a little shop that can't be missed. There is parking on the street and in back of the shop. If you are out on a lovely day looking for deals, pop on in and see what tickles your fancy. I don't imagine items stay on the shelves too long so if you like it buy it. That's my motto at any thrift and antique shop. It's also why I'm always broke :) ** EDIT ** I'm pretty sure these guys are on HWY 100 now.

Here's the thing. This isn't Macys. It's a resale shop. The store isn't super clean. The items may…read morenot be organized the best. But, we have found awesome things here for ourselves and our grand littles. We take the time to clean them well- toys , clothes, etc. anything we purchase. And we come home happy to rehome items and to save money. It's a win win. We enjoy this store more than Salvation Army and goodwill which we also frequent. On weekends, everything in the store is 1/2 off. You can't do any better than that. Go in knowing you have to give a little to get a little. We have shopped here for years. We appreciate the value.

I've never been to this location before so I can't say whether this is abnormal or not, but on our…read morevisit the store seemed very dirty and all of the merchandise was disorganized and in pretty much disarray. The floors looked dirty and the wares were haphazardly piled on top of each other on the shelves. The prices also seemed high, but I'm not sure if they have some sort of discount based on tag color or something. There was a lady making a bunch of noise tossing sporting goods merchandise around as I thought she shopped, but later on I ran across her in another area of the store throwing plastic toys around and realized that she was an employee. Based on this one visit, I don't plan to come back.

It's an okay location to look through to see what you can find. Unfortunately, I did not find…read moreanything for me but lots of people seemed to. Their prices are higher, they had Nike air max with a $74 price tag. They had a foldie bag that retails for $60 brand new for $50. I'm sure their prices re based on their location. Parking is $2 an hour and you may have to circle a few times to find one. I hit lucky and found one right down the street. Staff didn't seem to greet anyone upon entering. Stuff was very organized. They have several dressing rooms.

They do continuously spray some essential oil throughout the store. If you are alergic to essential oils or scents, you could die in here.

Oh, my! I don't normally buy clothing when out thrifting, and today was no exception. My husband,…read morehowever, walked away with 3 sports coats in practically perfect condition (the lining was torn in one coat) for $7!!!! The clothing here is arranged by gender, type and then color, which made the search much more appealing, not to mention easy. I usually buy "stuff" at thrift stores and find alternative uses for it, but there wasn't much to be found at this store, mostly books and stuffed animals, and the book selection was not very big. Marlene's is well stocked and clean and is situated next to a mattress store. The stores are connected by a rather large doorway and the day we were there, mattresses were getting moved into Marlene's stockroom. I don't know if Marlene's is expanding into the other space, or if Marlene's owns the mattress store....it was a little weird and we didn't ask, but the mattress store had it's own sign, so who knows? The staff was friendly and helpful, as needed. There is no parking lot, that we could see, so you would have to park on 13th street, which, on this stretch is a little tricky due to the amount of traffic. The prices here definitely make it worth the trip! 35/2015

According to what I read online: The Salvation Army generates funds through public contributions like individual donations and the Red Kettle campaign, government grants, and its network of thrift stores selling donated goods. They also benefit from large private donations for major projects, grants from corporations and foundations, and income from their investments. You would think they could afford toilet paper and toilet bowl cleaner. Shame on the management of this store!

I was able to pick up some good finds in the home decor section; vintage Pyrex and other dishes. The clothing section is large, but one must really have the time to look through it all . Less one star because they staple the price tags to the clothes which are tricky to remove and prices seem to have increased for if being a thrift store. They tend to have a good selection of fury item from time to time. And seniors get a 10% discount daily.
