Over the years, I have found some really great pieces-from clothing and shoes, to handbags, to furniture...I've found treasures! If you go and don't find what you're looking for, stop back another day. If you see something you want, get it then because someone else will beat you to it! Prices have gone up over the years but you're still saving money from what the item originally cost. Lovelady Center, located not far from the store, helps women get back on their feet after going through tough times. They turn your donations into profit that helps them support their residents. In fact, most, if not all, the ladies that work here, are connected to Lovelady in some way. They are either current residents or have been helped in the past. You should really look up their story. If you like to shop, especially in thrift stores, you must check them out!

I made two purchases the day I was at Lovelady in Irondale, and Good Lord Willing, I will be back soon.

They are great about having things in season, although prices have gone up a little in clothing. Lots of name brand items with major savings if you take the time to look. Still, for the last 3-4 visits I have been able to easily snag around 7 items in a haul every time for around $30! They also have a Clover rewards system to get discounts after you purchase a certain amount of items.

And then I noticed the jewelry, because the last time I visited I was looking for mystery jewelry jars and today I was happy to see five or six baggies absolutely full of costume jewelry that appeared wearable along with beads and watch parts and just everything I could use for crafting and repurposing with jewelry. So, I purchased two jewelry bags and the contents did not disappoint me when I opened them at home. So, it was another productive and great day shopping at Sozo Trading Co. In addition, there is always plenty of free parking and if you have the time there are a couple of restaurants nearby.
