I am going to go ahead and give this thrift shop 5 stars simply because whenever I am in town, if I…read morecan't get in there I know I'm missing something. This is a thrift shop but does not carry furniture or large items. Most of the store is women's clothing in all sizes from Petite to Plus. There are small children's and men's clothing areas. There are also children's toys, books, purses, jewelry, shoes and some accessories. There are also several small areas with linens, collectibles, small appliances and kitchen wares. One negative is a Keurig I purchased with a tag that it works, but it didn't. It turned on but that was it. I imagine they checked it came on and assumed someone would not donate a non working item. But I paid $15 and consider it a donation to their charitable contributions. OK so the clothes are pretty much exclusively in very good condition or new. They do mark up designer brands and new items with tags. I paid $25 for a Michael Kors dress with tags, and $8 for a new child's outfit. They have easily accessed dressing rooms and a speedy check out process. They offer a frequent buyer card with $10 off when filled. The store is crowded but very well organized. Clothes are hung by type, size and color. So if I am looking for a white long sleeved shirt size small, they are all hung in one place. One positive/negative is their amazing store window displays. They decorate the windows seasonally with the best of what is donated. It is incredibly enticing to see all the wonderful items that might be available inside. The catch is that NOTHING in the window is available for purchase until after the season is over. The Christmas windows items will be available January 9th at 10 am with the line forming early. So if something you have been wanting appears in that window display you will need to be on hand at a very specific date and time, like an estate sale or auction. Because I don't even live in the area, I pretty much don't even look at the windows since I can't buy anything there. I see from other reviews the store windows cause lots of angst for shoppers and for staff apparently. But since I know the deal I just accept it. One review from 2019 talks about a children's play area. I have been shopping here 10 years at least, and there is no children's play area. There is an area of toys for sale. When I was in last week 3 small children were tearing up the toys in there and screaming into a Frozen karaoke machine. When they put it down for a minute I scooped it up and bought it for my granddaughter. Yes, it is an alcove but every toy, book and game is priced so obviously for sale. Who in the world leaves a 2 and 4 year old unsupervised in a thrift shop toy sales area? So consider that if you read it below and wondered about it.

I've been trying to find the time in my hectic schedule to pay this shop a visit which is no easy…read moretask as they keep strange hours and close daily at 3pm. Some unexpected time off from work allowed me the opportunity yesterday, but my visit was disappointing. I honestly was expecting much more from this store especially since other Mennonite run thrift stores in the area are superb. First off let's talk about that parking lot. It's a congested, tight mess. Once you get in IF you find a spot good luck getting out. Don't even attempt it if you're not good with backing up or in a huge vehicle. There is street parking but it's also hard to secure and metered. Secondly I was surprised by the lack of current styles and the high prices on adult clothing. Being that Lititz is one of the coolest small towns in America one would think the donations would be too. Most of the ladies clothes looked like it was donated from nursing homes. Quality was ok but the styles were just plain old. Kids clothing was better but very limited. Overall I felt all of their departments were limited except for books. Toys and kids clothing was priced well for thrift but I felt everything else was high. Than there's the ladies at the counter...bless their hearts because they're probably volunteers but....they don't listen for crap. A long winded customer in front of me was engaged in conversation with the TWO cashiers. I was only half listening but heard her mention no less than three times that her grandchildren were twins. When she whipped out a picture both of them replied "are they twins"?????? Were you listening?!? So when it's my turn to cash out I handed the one an item I didn't want and asked if I could give it to her. She acknowledged that I didn't want it, only to ring me up! Both woman were probably only a decade older than me so you can't blame old age! I did buy a blender which I thought was a decent deal. It had a note that stated that it worked but anyone that buys second hand appliances would want to try for themselves. It's not uncommon for something to "work" but have motor issues (thus the smell) so I asked if I could plug it in somewhere to see. Cashier #1 was like but it works and acted like I asked her for her firstborn child. A second employee had the same reaction. No one was accusing anyone of lying I just asked, politely at that, if I could see for myself. Their reactions, especially surrounded by other customers was embarrassing and unnecessary. Given the lack of things I would want to buy, the size of the store, the prices and style of adult clothing, their inconvenient hours, the hot mess of a parking lot, and overall lack of professionalism in their employees this is one thrift I'm gonna pass.

I understand if you have to follow orders from corporate regarding pricing, but at some point being a willful concubine to the greed of a capitalist system wearing a mask of "doing the most good" must be taking a toll on you, right? Like you have to be aware of just how crazy you're being. Unless you've let the job bleed you dry of your baseline humanity to the point of utter apathy. Your pricing on certain items is absolutely insane! Like you're truly just out of your mind and should probably be heavily medicated. Out here acting like it's a premium antique store in the richest of neighborhoods instead of the THRIFT store that it's supposed to be. $150 for some glass coasters. $250 for an old stove. $500 for a Barbie house!?! These are all USED items that are GIVEN to you, a THRIFT store for FREE! And I understand there are operating costs of running the stores, but there's also a line that you're clearly way too comfortable crossing when it comes to the prices you put in front of every day thrift shoppers. During my visit I heard literally five customers make a remark about the insane prices you're slapping people in the face with. Read the damn room! Send this on up to your corporate masters if you truly don't have any control over your businesses pricing strategy because whether it's you or some higher managment forcing this twisted policy on the public, there's at least one ABSOLUTE PSYCHOPATH working for the Salvation Army and y'all need to know how it's making you look to the people you're supposedly in business to "help".

First time here after hearing good things from a friend, so expectations were cautiously optimistic…read moreand overall, this place delivered... with a few caveats. Let's start with the good stuff. This store is absolutely massive. And the carts? Chef's kiss. Smooth, solid, high-quality carts that roll like butter. Think Target carts, not the janky, squeaky chaos you usually get at thrift stores. I appreciated that more than I expected to. Prices were mostly average. Not amazing, not outrageous. Vans were around $14.99, which isn't great but also not the worst I've seen lately. Home goods weren't huge, but the section was decent and worth a look. I didn't find any jaw-dropping designer labels, but I did find some solid pieces for myself, so it wasn't a wasted trip. Bonus points because they were running orange tags at 75% off, which definitely helped soften the pricing sting. Would I come back? Yes, if I'm already in the area. Would I make a 45-minute drive just for this store again? Probably not. Overall, CommunityAid Temple is clean, well-organized, easy to shop, and way less stressful than a lot of thrift stores. Not a holy grail, but a solid stop that's worth checking out especially during tag sales.

While I felt some prices were a tad high ($12.95 for mall store jeans), others were low ($12.95 for never worn CK flats). While I only meandered around the front of the store I would say alot of the styles were more catered towards a sophisticated, mature professional woman. However I didn't venture beyond the first few racks. Overall I think they are very picky with what they accept and it shows. I would consider this consignment shop more upscale and selective than others and wouldn't mind coming back to shop for myself. They obviously take great pride in their business. Aside from clothing I saw accessories and jewelry and believe they offer additional departments as well. As a seller I would consider the process cumbersome with little reward. My transaction was for a straight buy out and pennies on the dollar was paid out with what I considered too much paperwork for the merger amount I received. Honestly for a buyout you would do better having a yard sale. Some of my items were purchased for .60 cents. I don't know anything about their consignment terms which is more common and what they prefer but it would be worth looking into if your stuff is immaculate. So while I won't return for a buyout, and probably won't return to shop for everyday wear, I would come shop for any special occasion or high fashion needs.
