This has always been a great thrift store. Enjoyed the disco inferno playlist. All clothes are tidy…read moreand cleaned up and employees were handling items put out, with care. Cashier was very nice and friendly as well as the manager working. Hadn't visited in years since I moved away from the area, but will donate and visit more often! Only disappointment is that TRUE vintage clothes are basically non existent. It's all fast fashion and SHEIN clothes for the most part :'(

This is one of my favorite thrift stores in El Cajon. They have two tag colors on sale each day,…read morethey have a great selection, not only of clothing, but of housewares, toys, and shoes. I have gotten all sorts of merchandise here. I got two pair pairs of brand, new Birkenstocks, clothes with tags for my kids, and a lot of really great fabric and craft supplies. They are open 7 days a week, and the parking lot is pretty big.

This was an impromptu stop. I love thrifting! Parking is not plentiful for this location. They…read moreare clearly marked for each business in the area. There is some street parking. This location is small and very organized. They have mannequins that are dressed stylish, nicely done. I found items priced here to be more reasonable than my local goodwill. I found a few nice things to use in my garden and craft room. The selection was plentiful. Plenty of clothing, shoes and dishware. The larger furniture and bikes were displayed in front of the building. They have like a drive thru donation drop off at the side of the building. Customer service was very helpful and friendly at this location. From my experience visiting many Goodwill locations the customer service is not as friendly as this place. Keep up the good work staff. I would check out this place again if I were in the area.

I used to stop in 3-4 times a week finding new merchandise and great prices. I started to notice…read morethe prices going up quite a bit, sometimes more than buying brand new. I stopped going so frequently hoping that maybe I could get lucky and find something affordable. That didn't happen so I have completely stopped shopping there. The staff has always been very warm and welcoming, they keep this store very clean and organized with selection of items always changing. Great merchandise, just too overpriced for a thrift store. I will no longer shop or donate to this Goodwill.

I live in Lakeside and I always pass this little thrift shop and finally decided to stop in. The…read moreowner is friendly and chatty, which is nice. The store is small and packed with items. Everything is still accessible, though, except the dresses which are hung up on a wall. Lots of treasures on the clothing racks, some organized some not. A little bit of everything and all at very fair prices compared to Goodwill and Salvation Army. I appreciate when second hand shops actually keep their prices low(ya know, second hand prices), so this store checked all of those boxes for me. They have a standing mirror of a sort(not really full length), but no fitting rooms. That is the only bummer for me, BUT I understand why. The owner let me know that she has had a lot of issues with people stealing items, which makes me sad for a few reasons. 1. The owner is really lovely and has items out front for $1 that people can buy(but I suspect she would also give clothing items away to people who are really in a pinch). 2. This is a small shop and thievery is lame. If you want something for less, ask. Does not hurt to ask. Don`t steal. Please. I told her to make sure she has people leave larger bags/coats at the front counter and to also make a sign that says NO PUBLIC RESTROOMS, so people don't try to browse, "use the restroom" and then leave with stolen items. If you are stealing and reading this, don`t be a jerk. Send me a message and I`ll take you shopping here. Overall a really nice thrift store that I`ll be returning to while I`m here in Lakeside.

We were in the neighborhood, a quick Google led us to CBC Thrift Store on Woodside Ave. CBC is a small store. Mostly clothing, but a small inventory of other items also. I found a fun little matched set of a single waffle iron and a pancake griddle. Also a Funko "Star Wars" bobblehead. All for $13. Super nice lady running the place. We made a donation too. If you want some gently used Padres gear, head to CBC Thrift Store. Not the greatest thrift store, but a nice little family run mom-and-pop shop.

Based on the photos on this yelp page, I was excited to check out this thrift store. This location…read moreis right next to the veterans thrift store. When I went here today I was very disappointed. This store is definitely not "quality" as the name suggests. The store appeared disorganized, dingy, poorly lit, and had a slight smell to it. I hate to say it, but it overall looked as though store owners and/or workers do not have pride in the shop's appearance. Many of the housewares were displayed on shelves so that you could see things, which was nice, though it was a totally different story for clothing. Clothing was tossed into big plastic bins on wheels, and gave the appearance of these items being things that had been narrowly saved from being thrown in the trash. Unfortunately I will not be coming back to this store until if/when the place gets some major upgrades.

Great location, huge store, very clean and lots of different things to buy! Cute clothing and they had options in my size (1x). Ive actually never been in because i thought i would never be able to fit in boutique style clothing. I walked out with 2 things and LOVE how i look and feel in them. Super cute accessories & home decor items. I would have purchased some for my wedding centerpieces but another lady bought them all. The girl working was SO nice to the super rude lady who bought them. Bless her heart lol. She might have been the owner, Idk, she knew alot about the place. Oh and its owned by a non-profit! Or something like that. Anyways I really like this place!
