Ever since COVID, it seems like it has tried to become a Texas thrift trying to promote clothes, but did not do it successfully. Their prices and value are also not quite up to par. Compared to similar thrift stores in the area. My biggest issue today? Customer service was absolutely unacceptable. I feel like they were uncomfortable because of all the pictures I was taking? The two ladies in front kept staring and whispering to each other and looking back at me. I decided to give them the benefits of the doubt- they must have better things to talk about? I had nothing with me but my mobile, so why were they following me around? I looked through the clothes for about twenty minutes, then went over to the shoes, then back to the clothes. Then I went over to request getting into the fitting rooms, which were locked. One lady from the front came over as I stood there. "Something wrong?" Was the first thing she said to me. Taken aback, I replied, no, I was trying to get into a fitting room, please? I showed her my three garments. "Were you putting clothes back?" "What?" "My associates said you were putting clothes back." I looked at her blankly. "They said you took some and were putting them back in the shoes section." "I apologize, ma'am, I do not know what you are talking about," I answered in the most polite voice, even though I was getting increasingly frustrated. "They saw you. Take clothes and put them by the shoes." At this point, I was ready to leave. If this was how they were treating customers, I was not about to beg to be let into the fitting room, let alone give them my business. "I do not know what you are talking about, How about we go to the shoes and you can show me? I did not put anything there, only the clothes I have in my hands." "No. They took them away", she replies. Silence. "I am going to have you ask you to leave," she says. I don't even care anymore. Frankly, I am not sure whether I am more puzzled by how this confusion has taken place or more shocked that they have the audacity to treat a customer like this with no grounds. She did not even try to communicate with me with kindness. She was accusatory, told me to leave, and that was that. I left. Never plan to return. Good riddance. Highly not recommended. Zero stars!

I am really saddened by what I am seeing in Goodwill. There was a time when you could get some…read moreserious bargains, and nice items for very low, affordable prices. You still can, but more and more of their items are very highly priced. I came in looking for some art, plus other items. Prices for some of the bigger art, were in the $39.99 to $49.00 range! I wish this was an exaggeration. Handbags were the same. Most of them were $10 and over, with many of them priced upward of $15.99. Needless to say, I did not purchase anything during this trip. This is a thrift store. They get their inventory for free from donations. And although, their purpose is to provide job training and employment based opportunities, they are still a thrift store, known for being inexpensive and selling used donated goods. I will say the only thing that stood out for me in the store during my stop, was the service. The store staff worked hard, were courteous, and extremely patient given the amount of shoppers in the store.

I spent a long time walking through the store looking for something prices reasonably priced and the more I shopped around the worse it got. I left without buying anything!

Sadly I can't see myself shopping here again, there are much better options for thrifting.

What a wonderful and unique shopping experience! The staff was so personable (without being intimidating or intrusive) from the minute we walked in. It felt like we had been friends forever. Our four young boys were with us and they were treated like family too. The sweet sales person stooped down to eye level to my youngest (age 3) and gently took the time to explain to him 'why' he should not touch the guitar that was propped against the wall (not just admonishing him for touching it - good teachable moment done with love and respect). Then she followed that up by giving him (and the other kids) a coloring book! What a darling thing to do! The store was covered in unique artwork, jewelry, accessories and finds you don't see in other places. I enjoy a colorful whimsical aesthetic, it was like walking into HAPPY LAND! And oh! my! gosh! The baby & children's clothes are to die for! What a perfect place to come for a gift! We learned about some new womens athleisure & womens clothing items she has in the works. I will be absolutely be back to check them out. They do carry an extensive collection of Meileg dollhouse items. This makes me wish I was 5 again. Our little ones were in wonder (as I was) taking in the experience of the store, but were very careful to look and not disturb. I know it's so difficult to keep a boutique going in this day and age were people want to buy everything online, but what would we do if we didn't get to actually see and enjoy these treasures in person any more? What fun would life be then? I think it's important to visit your local businesses and help out where you can. We learned Iva Style is also a woman owned business, and I commend her for making it through Covid. Hopefully the rest of the Artisans Alley will soon come back to life. It does look like its had a few hits but WE all carry some economic power to help bring these fun places back to their former glory. Its a perfect place to go have a girls day (my husband enjoys too) without having to drive all the way to Boerne or Fredericksburg. They have a wine bar where you can get a charcuterie board some other shops that are truly gems, like a balloon specialty shop! Definitely check out The Alley on Bitters.

Boysville Auxiliary Thrift is a spot that I frequent a lot. I would say I come to this spot maybe…read morethree or four times a month. It is big and they have a variety of goods to sell. My favorite thrift in the spot is the books. They are very reasonably priced and you can get quite a few or under a dollar, which is pretty impossible in a lot of other thrift stores. The staff here is friendly and helpful. They have a little boutique section in the front where they keep the newer clothing with tags, and more designer wise items. I do think some of their prices are on the higher end, which is disappointing when you're trying to get some affordable items. Clothing, however, it's usually reduced, so along with the books a good purchase. Not so much their purses, and some of their other accessories. It's worth a visit to search through their treasures and find some good thrifts. This is not my favorite thrift store, but it will be some of the goodwill prices in a pinch.
