Great selection with a wide variety. My friend found high quality: Lennox Christmas Stoneware (9 plates for $130); I found a beautiful solid wood velvet lined keepsake box (20x6x6) for $5. Plenty of well-ordered clothing, housewares, and furniture, without that thrift store smell. It also has a boutique section. Parking was scarce but additional parking was available at St Christopher's just down the street, which also had a resale shop. read more

I've driven past this place so many times and always said, "I need to go there" and finally, after yearsss, I went! I was very surprised by the selection they offer. A little bit of everything: apparel, furniture, accessories, decor, kitchen and seasonal items. I got myself a cool, new painting for $12 (the original Kirkland price sticker was still on the back for $29.99)! The colors were vibrant and hummingbirds are my favorite. Looks great on my wall! The cashier was so cheerful and even suggested we sign up for emails to get notifications for certain discount days. Apparently the day I went, it was 20% off the entire purchase! Super rad. Wanna know something even better?! I started following their Facebook page and MAM actually stands for Memorial Assistance Ministries- "Services and trainings focused on workforce development, financial stability, mental health, and more." I LOVE that. Doing good for the community! I saw a solid white tea/espresso cup with saucer set of 4, by Crate & Barrel for $2/piece! They could be purchased together or separately.... of course I was like "Nah, not today." Now I have regrets! read more

Good selections, large stock, decent resale quality and prices, very interesting things pop up and get snatched up. By me, if I am quick. Across the street is the Episcopal church resale, another especially great shop. Kill two birds with one stone. These two simulate Montrose where excellent resales are bunched all over the 'hood. I also donate to both because they are good to the community and I drive down Blalock all of the time. read more

I tried to donate a couch. I called and waited 2 weeks for a pick up. So when they came out I was told they needed to send a picture to their supervisor because of a stain. When they called back to the guy I was told they didn't want it be of the stain and they had to much inventory. I find it disgraceful. Why didn't they tell me that 2 weeks ago? I've called goodwill and am set for a pickup in 2 days. I would tell you to find another place to donate you items. Here is a picture of my couch that was deem not go enough to sell. read more

MAM Resale Store & Boutique - My couch - Thrift Stores Near Me - Houston, Texas

I just can't with this place anymore. I've been coming here for years and over the last year or so they've gotten so out of touch with their pricing. vase I found on line for $25-$49----tbey've priced it for $175. WTH??? This is all over the store with everything. I kindly asked a lady today who was doing their pricing and after she basically sneered at me she told me maybe I should volunteer if I have a problem with pricing. Uhhhh...ok. How about take your attitude home if you can't be nice--being a volunteer isn't license to be rude to customers--it was a question. It's a thrift/charity shop and you guys are ripping people off. No wonder I see stuff still sitting on shelves after months--overpriced and some broken---asking ridiculous prices. Thrifting is dead---thanks Tik Tok. read more

MAM Resale Store & Boutique - Overpriced crap. - Thrift Stores Near Me - Houston, Texas

Years ago it used to be great: wide selection, reasonable prices. I donated and shopped there a lot. Nowadays it's a whole other store with crazy prices. They also got a security guard, who interrogated me today as to why I'm standing outside the store. (I was waiting for the store to open in a few minutes.) Then I saw him guarding the restroom, at which point I left the store. I won't be donating nor shopping there anymore. read more

I just saw a USED cookie jar from world market, priced for 45.00 in this store. The same cookie jar on line new for 37.00 NEW. Thrift is used... no one should pay more than 5.00 for something donated to you. You're becoming like over priced GOODWILL. Do better! read more

The prices have gone over the year to the point the average consumer can not afford. I would have bought several things if the price was not absurd. read more

Have found several little furniture pieces over the past several years & crystal and cook wear..The people are super nice and I have donated to them also..You just never know what you may find... read more

This place has pretty good deals. It is an organized store. Sometimes things are overpriced but you can find some great pieces of furniture. I got a great 2 drawer filing cabinet for $15. Merchandise turns over fast here. Some great deals too! read more

It is like being on a treasure hunt! Great finds at really good prices ! plus you can start following and watch live Facebook shows with great associates like Edna Kendall Missy Stephanie ! My personal favorite location is Blalock!! read more

This place is just OK. If you want furniture or book, books, books and more books; then this is the place for you. The furniture is overpriced. The clothing in the boutique is overpriced. Buddy, they think they got the good stuff too. Then the clothing and shoes on the floor are overpriced and cheap. No bargains to found here. On a side note; the lady in the boutique was knowledgeable, polite and had a smile on her face the entire time we spoke. read more

I went two weeks ago and plan on coming back today! They have a huge location so spend time to look around, it's worth it! They have a great selection of books, some almost brand new! I found a couple of children's story books for future baby and a 112 CD and Destiny's Child's CD, I was super excited that I forgot the check for the damn CD, the DC one ended up being just the CD case, but it had the insert still, so oh well, I'll just find a CD online lol. The selection is not bad, and the customer service wasn't that bad yall. Some people are too needy, it's a thift store, just go through it if you don't find it oh well, that's the fun in thrifting yall come on! read more

If you consider shopping to be exercise, this store can keep you walking for awhile. Mam's is one of the larger resales stores in the Houston area. One thing I love about Mam's is there organization; Yes, organization is a great thing in a resale store. All of the large art/frames are together, furniture has it spot, seasonal, clothes, and jewelry. Which is great, if I am not in a seasonal mood, I can skip that section. Another thing that makes me happy is their monthly discount system. Every resale/consignment store should be using this system (ah-hm-hm...On Consignment in Dallas). All in all, fun shop on a Saturday afternoon. read more

Great store! You'll never know what you will find here. Follow them on Facebook where they post store and Boutique sales.

Business is nicely organized and tidy. I went for books to resale. They have them too high priced for my purpose. Workers were helpful and friendly. read more

I'm completing community service at this location and I haven't had any problems with any of the staff until today simply because I showed up to community service 15 minutes early and left on time at 12 I was talked to very rudely for no apparent reason all because I wanted to be clear on some rules so that I know what to do , moving forward.the lady I'm not sure who her name is assumed I had an issue with the rules that takes place at the resale shop there's rules everywhere and I don't have any problem with however I just asked a few questions so that I can be clear. She didn't want to give me credit for the 15 mins early I showed up for Which I have before . read more

Think about your grandma and all her friends putting together a massive Thrift store. MAMs has elderly people as volunteers and they have a really friendly chit chat atmosphere. They even had homebaked cookies for a dollar donation ! these cookies were definitely grandma quality and Come from decades of practice ! But going back to the store, they have a huge selection of books, clothes, antique items, etc... The book section was the most organized Ive seen at any thrift store rivaling an actual used book store. They even have a big selection of antique books for less than 2 dollars each. the only real downside (or maybe upside) is the selection of stuff is definitely donated from an older generation. So prepare to travel back in time to a thrift store from the eighties with homebaked cookies ! read more

I may have left here once, ever, empty handed... After several trips I noticed a huge warehouse in the back where they store seasonal goods (halloween costumes, christmas decor, back to school...) This place gets a GOLD STAR and A+ for organization also :) read more

I made a FIRST TIME trip to this establishment this evening and after a 35 minute drive because I chose back roads. I entered the store and browsed for new furniture(a coffee table to be specific) but my interest went towards couches then towards mystery books but I was pulled away by my partner to view an item that would possibly be purchased. As I walked past the register with my cart while using my phone a short black woman with a small cheetah hat and a cane shouted to me WHILE she was finishing up another customer "excuse me young man" TWICE and assuming who she could've been talking to I turned around and she rudely communicated to me "were about to close in 30 minutes!" and I found it offensive and unprofessional. As a black man who works and pays his dues I found it rude she chose to PERSONALLY inform me they were closing soon. She then chose to walk from behind the counter and approach me but LUCKILY I had already decided to leave and I informed her have a nice day and asked if I could have her name she remained silent for a second then replied "what's your name?" and I kindly told her as I was walking out then we both exchanged we should have blessed days and that was the end of any communication with her. She then appeared to try and have the store's security intervene but I was safely buckled in my car leaving the worst 15MINUTES of racial discrimination I can experience. I wish so bad 0 Stars were possibly but I remember God is on my side and I'm sending love to whoever desperately needs it. read more

Huge thrift store with a bit of everything. Prices are better than goodwill. Lots of potential for a good find though I didn't this time around. Huge book selection. There is a very nice boutique section which had some nice things. I will Return. read more

Went for the first time a few weeks ago and was disappointed. Was unable to purchase an item because it was not tagged (a non name brand shirt). A female security guard walks around like she can actually do shit about anything and means mugs everyone. I really hope she's getting paid at least $35 an hour, because thats the least I would take for an EJ. A lady volunteer assumed I only spoke Spanish. Another Asian lady that works there proceeds to try to take the cover off my sleeping baby's stroller as if to confirm I actually had a baby? I had to very FIRMLY tell her not to get near my baby. Boutique is overpriced. Won't be back. read more

This place will not let you return merchandise or even let you exchange it. read more

I always find something here and the workers are very nice. I love the dresses and they even have a small boutique in the back. They also have a room full of toys. *___* The books, I think, are half priced on weekends. I recommend going here. ^___^ read more

Good selection of items but prices were too high. I mean they get the stuff for free. Move it and make your $. Especially the clothes and furniture. read more

I'm a little perplexed by all the 4 and 5 star reviews. This place is a pretty average resale/thrift store. There's really nothing fantastic about it...yes, it is organized nicely and yes, the employees are friendly but to me it just seemed like another Goodwill. It's always fun for me to browse these types of places and search for that hidden gem to bring on Pawn Stars or to purchase kitschy crap for your home but I really don't think this place is as spectacular as the reviews on Yelp make it out to be. read more

I found some good things and some things I thought were good, but not so much. Awesome pair of leather boots, but too much in my mind for a thrift store purchase ($30). A Tonka truck I bought for my son ($15) which didn't even work after replacing batteries (broken parts and missing pieces). I purchased a very pretty vintage tea set. But the sharpie used to write the price stained the saucers! Luckily after trying peroxide, bakingsoda, and acetone, a ceramic grout cleaner removed it after soaking for hours. I was impressed with the vintage book selection. Not many children's clothes, though. Overall, a decent thrift store, but inconsistent pricing. read more

Awesome thrift store! This is by far one of the best thrift stores in Houston. Its well layed out, has a big selection and very neat and organized. The book selection is phenomenal! They also have a little boutique inside that offers higher end clothing so there really is something for everyone. Be sure to like their Facebook page for all their sale notifications. read more

I had a great time at the MAM resale shop! The store is very well organized and quite clean. The staff is incredibly friendly, too. I walked away with some great stuff and can't wait to go back :) read more

My only complaint - and it's not really a complaint - is that because i know all the proceeds go to support MAM's social services I tend to overspend. It's for a good cause so I can justify just about anything and it's CHEAP!! read more

I've been here once and it was great my mum and I found tons if stuff!!

Probably the most well organized thrift store I have ever been into. Plus everything was generally very clean and organized. Was able to walk out with lots of picture frames and old board games, each for only a couple of bucks or less a piece. I was tempted to buy a bread maker, and probably will go back at some point and buy one. Overall, will make a point to stop by here occasionally to see what goodies I can find. They also sell homemade cookies and other confections by the front counter just in case you are needing a sugar fix. read more

This place is huge and the bEST place for used books at a reasonable price. I always come away with a big stack. They also have a lot of children books. read more

This place is far better than Goodwill because they actually help the neighborhood and don't keep the profits for the owners. Believe me, I did the research and found out that many non-profits pay the management a large salary without helping those they say they help. Great place with great people. read more

This is the worst thrift store I've ever been to. If I could give them zero stars I would. The man at the cash register had the audacity to tell me to bring a penny next time. This was after he rudely told me I couldn't buy a shirt because it didn't have a tag. He was very demeaning and vicious. read more

This resale shop has some good things inside, i usually donate alot of stuff to the facility!
