The St. Albert location recently opened this fall (2014) in the old Rona location across from GoodLife Fitness. It's as bright and clean as any thrift store could possible be. They have a drive up section, where you ring a doorbell, to drop off gently used items (VV gives back to charity every time you donate through the Diabetes Association). I have a friend who works at a different location and she had lamented that they were pulling all their best things for months in preparation of sending the best of the best to have the St. Albert store stocked for its grand opening. Be sure to sign up for e-mail notice of sales, their Super Savers Card, or bring a Senior on Tuesdays for 30% off if you're looking for a deal or going to be a regular. A word of caution/advice - you need to either know what you are looking for or be on a mission for something one of a kind. Buying George brand or Cherokee brand leggings for your little girl for $2-$4 used here is simply insane when you can buy them brand new for $3-$5 on sale. But for a pair of dress shoes likely only once or twice or a vintage jersey to wear to a themed party or the perfect ugly Christmas sweater - this is most definitely your place!

This is a brand spanking new Goodwill located in St.Albert. I have a feeling this will be a new…read morefavourite thrifting location for me. The store is quite large, very clean and well organized. The items are attractively displayed. Like other Goodwills, this location has clothing sections for women, men and children. There's a section for home decor, jewellery and books. Many of the items are gently used. There are even special Goodwill stickers stating "Brand New" on items that are in unopened packages. It's was nice to shop in such a huge and uncrowded store. My shopping cart filled up pretty quickly here. I found some great quality items. For my first visit, I bought baby proofing gadgets, a couple toys, a jean jacket, a small picture frame and a baby album. I definitely could spend a lot of time exploring the different aisles here. Not all Goodwill stores are created equally. This location is super good. Check it out!

I have been shopping here for 22 years, three daughters. From newborn up to teens and adults and…read morematernity. Its amazing, the owner treats anyone who walks through the door like family. The store space has high ceilings that add spaciousness to the assorted shelves and displays. The selection she has in this store is unique, the rare finds from vintage to up to date are very good quality. She has a little bit of everything, toys, books, games, clothing, outdoor toys, sensory, wall decor, starter plants, movies, kids furniture, so much more. She will even be your personal shopper if you know what you are looking for and she will set it aside. I personally like her selection of yoga and workout lulu lemon attire. Have fun and find your special item or drop off your gentle used things.

As a vintage enthusiast, I've read reviews of Tattered Rose for the last year and been dying to…read morecheck it out. It's not in an area that I pass by often but I has an appointment nearby and as I was parking I spotted the sign. Luckily I was 20 mins early, giving me the perfect place to kill time! The store is underneath some apartments but tokes over half of the ground level by the looks of it. A fantastic big space, filled from top to bottom with vintage treasures. The owner does a great job creating cute corners highlighting furniture, decor, ornaments and clothing. I immediately wished I had more time to browse! The clothing is divided into rails of amazing dresses from the Victorian era and more. The underskirt section was unreal and made me wanna dress like a steam punk to my meeting. So cool. Lots of eclectic and romantic bits for a vintage wedding. Just wonderful.

Staff said if we wanted a discounted dress(there was a rack that was advertised as 30% off) we would have to first pay $29.95 also. Needless to say, we left- Super disappointed.

My daughter is a size 12 and the consultant spent more time body shaming her and saying they can't pull what she wants because she's too big. The woman pulled all big fluffy gowns from the plus size rack which is exactly opposite of what my daughter wanted. She embraces her curves and doesn't deserve to be belittled.
