We found items of any and all categories, ranging from vintage concert tees, vinyl records, milk glass dishes and vintage jewelry to comic books, children's toys, books and more. In my opinion, most of the items were not priced to sell. They were being overvalued. The pricing was for the customer that comes in looking for a specific item for a specific purpose. We were just browsing for fun and unique finds and left with a pair of cuff links, a piece of costume jewelry, a few handkerchiefs and a book. We saw other items that we were interested in, but after doing some price comparison, we were able to find the same or similar items on online marketplaces such as eBay for less. The staff were kind and helpful. We stayed right up until closing time, and they never lost their professionalism or kindness like some businesses probably would when customers walk in moments before closing and disregard them when a shopkeeper reminds them. This was not us (we were there for about 2 hours), but I did witness this happening.

Antiquing is all about what the individual is looking for and I'd say they had a decent amount of items I was hoping to find. Upon entry there were a few employees sitting at the front counter but they did not greet me at all. At the time of check out they were a bit friendlier but I wouldn't rate them high on making customers (at least me) fell welcome. The 3 levels are pretty well organized and tidy and most booth item were reasonably priced. I found parking nearby on the street after circling the area a couple of times.

I saw a some antiques, lots of collectibles, some new stuff and some junk. I wasn't looking for anything in particular, but I enjoy looking at antiques and things with an interesting history. And I like to decorate with antiques. Most booths and glass cases were neat and well organized. Many booths were decorated for fall and a few had sales in progress. Prices were mixed. The mall is fairly large by local standards. I took about an hour to go through and see what caught my eye. I did purchase a greeting card. The clerks were friendly and helpful if you needed assistance. Parking is a bit confusing. I found parking on the side of the building.

So the money from your purchases, as well as your donations, all go toward a great cause. This new thrift store is so clean and organized. Probably 75% of the store is clothing, shoes and accessories, but they also have a great selection of used books, DVDs, and even cassette tapes and VHS for the old heads. The prices are amazing. One of my kids bought a board game for $2, and the other found a Wii game for $3. There are lots of quality home goods and kitchen stuff, too. Nothing is junky -- you can tell that they are discerning about the items that they choose to display in the store. I visited the store on its second day of being open, and I noticed that it didn't have a sign out front yet. It's still early days for the store, though, so I'm sure they'll put a sign out at some point. In the meantime, just look for the banner that says "grand opening."

If you are searching for something in particular I suggest you pay a visit to the Antique Emporium and visit the Carmel Antique Mall as well since it is nearby. Both times I was there, one employee was sitting at the desk available for assistance. The parking lot has ample parking.

They shortened hours on Labor Day. From the outside, the place seems small with bigger items typically outside to grab drivers' attention. They have a variety of (new and used) merchandise including furniture. It is like a Goodwill store but more organized. I was told that the items were donated, and they do not have sales. I bought a lap desktop with folding legs and section holders; it would be so helpful especially when I tend to find writing utensils that have fallen between the couch cushions. Also, a green long-sleeve dress shirt caught my eyes so I had to go look at it, which happened to fit me; how could I resist buying this name-brand, attractive shirt! I used that coupon for the shirt, so I got more savings than for the desktop. There seem to be a couple of spots I would like to try to wash out of the shirt. So both $5 or less. Sold! When I got home, I realized that maybe the shirt was new because there was a spare button attached. I will see if the ink on the sleeve comes out. I think the store changed its name to Noble Cause (but still led by the Society of St. Vincent de Paul) and did change their hours to M, T, Th, and F 9-3 with Wed. and Sat. only to serve from the Society of St. Vincent de Paul's food pantry. I would return when and if convenient but definitely if I get a coupon.
