I've always wanted a teddy coat, but have never bought one because I live in Miami. However, enter this cute little coat I spotted on the rack that is now my new fave purchase of 2025. The coat was just $16, and if you do a little dance at check out they give you 10% off. Say less, I did my little dance and walked out of there with a purchase under $15 that I've already worn 3 times! They have a good variety of nice outfits, casual ware, accessories and shoes as well. The staff was also super friendly. I wish we had one of these shops in my neighborhood, but would def go back when visiting Boone.

It was just alright. Folks are friendly enough here but note this before going: the inventory is…read moremostly hippy-dippy styles for teens to mid-20's. If that's not your style, you'll be disappointed. No housewares and no vintage coolness. Not much in terms of jewelry /accessories aside from leather and beads. Lots of printed tshirts though.

That's even more than my local women's club raised (through donations and fundraising only) for the same period. The store is neatly organized, and the prices are great. The day I stopped in, they were having a half-off sale on their women's clothing, and I was able to find several things that I liked. They also have a variety of housewares, cookware, linens, shoes, and decor. They even have a roomy fitting room to try on clothes. Note that they don't have any men's clothing. All of their items are donated, and many were higher-end brands. I found several Loft and Talbots tops and dresses that I had to purchase. Village Thrift is also fully run by volunteers who are friendly and happy to be there. I'll definitely return the next time I'm in town!

I was told by other associate it Sold. Sold with in hour,they knew I was coming back they didn't hold for me!!??? Two days later I seen it in a thrift antique store down the road for sale!! How easy that was to pick out what associate or her buddy to resale. I seen the same associate loading her white suv up with nice items! So whats going on Salvation army! I wont be back nor donate. Ive just read after posting on google reviews that a lot of others have had same problem. I believe in the Salv Army this store needs a true corporate person to come in and clean house of dishonest employees thats probably why that one is rude its guilty. Wants to intimidate to bully like pitch a fit so one wont come back or say anything

After spending $45 to obtain them new elsewhere we passed this gem of a location. I popped in, spent $12 to get 4 people new shirts and we later returned the others.

The store offers a small throw back to simpler times, selling anything and everything one would need for their household under one roof. They even had a slogan early on of "if you can't buy it here, you don't need it". The store offers homewares (glassware, plates, pots, pans and cast iron), decor, snack items, jelly's/jams, milled products, soaps, gifts, clothing, camping gear, and even barrels upon barrels of candy by the pound. With 2 floors fully stocked of product, it offers a glimpse of how things were in olden times. Pricing on many items is very fare, from what I saw and was able to compare. Staff were all very friendly, checking in as we shopped to see if there is anything we could be helped with. It's a fun store to poke through, with lots of nostalgia
