According to their web site, Restore 61 is a charity helping people in the Portsmouth area…read more They're a 501c3 non profit trying to change their name to Restore 61 from the current name of Acorn Foundation. Their web site says that they are a faith based organization and the new name has some biblical reference. I am giving them 3 stars because I don't know enough to have an opinion. And when I don't have an opinion, I don't make donations. But I'm happy to get them listed on Yelp. They were holding an art exhibit in the basement at 40 Pleasant St. and the works of many well respected local artists and photographers were for sale. The exhibit is only there on June 4 and 5, but the charity claims to have been around since 2003. Check them out, do your research, and see what you think. And help them out if you think they deserve your support.

I was soooo impressed when I walked in here. It's been a couple years since I have come in here…read more The store is pretty big with a huge selection of clothes. They also had a good selection of nick nacks, kitchen stuff, furniture & all that other stuff out back. I was very impressed with their prices. I visited another goodwill store back in April down the street & was very disappointing as their prices were very expensive & they hardly had anything in their store. This is the store to go to!!! I went in hoping that they may have had some Pyrex for sale but didn't find any but walked out with a cat litter box, dish drying pad, old fashion travel iron and a plastic dog food container. The pet stuff I actually got for my Mom's dog & cat. I went in with my friend who was looking for some sheets for his camper bed & he walked out with this super cute small desk & chair for his daughter & a dresser for himself. Those were also reasonably priced. There was a little line that moved kinda slow. There were only 2 cashiers working. I believe they have to manually punch in the prices (I can't remember...lol) so that can make things a little slow.....so don't be in a hurry when stopping in here. In the past I've actually dropped off some donations which was very easy. They had bins on the side of the building that you drop your stuff off in or you could walk it inside next to the bins & drop it off in there. Real quick process.

Despite having to reschedule the actual date (due to illness), the office staff was very supportive and accommodating. Being presented with two flights of stairs, tricky doorways and many family antique furniture items needing special care when packing, the amazing patience and creative problem solving abilities of movers Jordan and Damian made the actual relocation smooth and efficient. Luckily, the afternoon snow squall waited till after the crew was done and had driven away! My sister is very grateful to be in her new place and ready to start the next chapter in her life!

This year it's going up 25%. Feels excessive and like a bait and switch model since once you have your stuff there, you are a captive audience unless you go to the time and effort to move. In addition, they have moved to electronic locks which I resent since it's another app on my phone/with my info and if the power is out, then what? Anywho, if you are ok with the increases and electric locks, they are great.

Northeast Color was the first to respond, the cheapest, AND the most responsive to my questions. Sold. Three business days later, the banner is being shipped to my client, and I can bow gracefully and pretend I had this all planned out. The people at Northeast were extremely easy to work with and very professional. I know who I'll be calling next time I get a panicked phone call for another banner design.

The proceeds go to hospice care so you definitely will feel good anytime you make a purchase. Plus, the ladies that work there are all so friendly and helpful- but not over the top. They let you browse in peace and are always glad to answer questions and help out when necessary. It definitely requires patience and a willingness to dig through things because the store always has a lot of stuff, but it's usually always worth it. I've found great vintage dresses, beautiful African artwork, books, records, pottery and glassware, a gorgeous mid century gold floor lamp for $5, and more.
