I used to love going to Texas Thrift because they had a good selection of products and prices were…read moreonly slightly above average (I.e., a nice polo was $5-8). However, over the last few months they've been changing their pricing. Items that used to cost under $7 are now over $10. There are some items that they list at what would be typical MSRP. For example, an Under Armor hoodie with a big stain on it was listed for $20. This doesn't limit itself to clothes, I found several single quart Rubbermaid containers for $5 when a pack of 4 is around that. It seems like they only pay attention to the name of the brand and then ignore the condition of the items. The workers are always nice and the service is good. It sucks that they adjusted the prices on everything.

This store has gone absolutely downhill and has no intention of getting any better. Besides the…read moreinsane spike in prices and taking away their senior discounts with no notice, they invested in self checkout registers ..where you have to be helped in order to actually check out. If you thought the restroom situation could not get worse, check the pictures out for yourself. The entire hour I was there, the speaker kept calling for assistance in the restrooms and when I entered, I was absolutely speechless. There was actual on the toilet bowl, no locks on any stalls, and you can expect for there to be no toilet paper or hand soap. I can't even begin to imagine what the men's looks like. I left appalled by my entire experience and encourage someone who has some knowledge in cleanliness to take care of this issue above all else.

My heart is full. I have searched high and low, and have finally found a place where my household…read moredonations will go to a good cause. One hundred percent of the proceeds of items sold at this shop funds the Helotes Humane Society located right next door. The old house is the thrift shop. A driveway with a sign for drop off will direct you to the back of the house. A large sign is posted on the fence of items they do not accept. All the items sold at the thrift shop are well organized and labeled nicely. There are so many good finds! Lots of antiques and vintage items too. The ladies that work at the shop are very kind, friendly, and helpful. I bought a vintage knit nativity scene that I absolutely love, Christmas lights, coasters, and a tree skirt. They offer military discount on Thursday and senior discount on Friday. I had a blast at this shop and will be back. Besides the Helotes Humane society next door, there's also a small dog park behind it.

Ok. In all honesty, I am fairly new to thrifting, about two years, so this place was too much…read more Arrived this Tuesday at 9, which is when they open, and there were already quite a few people in there. By the time I left, about 1 hr later, that parking lot was full. The amount and piles of clothing are insane, but as someone mentioned in the comments, you really have to be persistent and dig to get quality clothing, which, spoiler alert, I didn't! There were so many people, it was impossible to move around with ease, and I didn't have the patience to sort through all that mess for the perfect clothing item. Plus, the noise and assortment of running, crying and yelling children was not fun. After an hour, I could take no more, and speed walked out of there. I will say the value was amazing, though. On Tuesdays, they sell the clothing for .50! That's right, each piece less than a dollar, which explains the crowds and overflowing carts throughout the place. So the value is there, I just needed the endurance, know-how and focus, to find a great piece. Honestly, I don't know if I'll return. I may need more training on the Art of thrift. I was not impressed by the lack of higher end brands, so I'll continue shopping at my known spots. At the very least, because there's less of a commotion, and the thus an enjoyable shopping experience. Sorry! No pictures. I was too overwhelmed to take any. ‍

I decided go this evening to experience 50¢ Tuesdays and I don't regret it one bit. It wasn't my…read morefirst time at this store, but normally I go on Friday or Saturday. Before you go, this store isn't like other thrift stores, things aren't often as pristine (I was looking for stained clothes so this wasn't an issue), and the racks aren't really sorted. There's normally a giant pile of clothes to right of the entrance you'll see people rifling through. I thoroughly enjoy this store, but you need to have a good feel to find quality clothes. Tonight I scored J. Crew pink pants with no flaws. It's in there, just hard to find. That being said even not-so-great clothes are easy accept when the prices are so cheap. This is consistently the cheapest thrift store I've been to and I really appreciate that fact. They price to sell.

I was excited to go to my first uptown cheapskate. It was mid afternoon, the store had about a…read moretotal of four customers. When I walked in I wasn't greeted with a welcome or hello. There were plenty of employees behind the counter. I walked around and noticed the purses, which were very cute. Then I walked to the pant section and then the dresses section. I finally chose a dress and a pair of pants to try on. One on asked if I needed help or if I needed a dressing room. Which was very disappointing. I finally asked an employee for a dressing room. They fit but not to my liking so I looked awhile longer but didn't buy anything. I was expecting a thanks for come or come again since there was at least four people behind the counter. I'll try coming back again maybe next time the employees will be more help or cheerful.

First of all, check in at the counter and fill out some general info. They then will go through and process your clothing, and give you a quote of what they will take. Time takes about 30-60 minutes.

I've taken the cash, they don't offer a lot, but it's better than nothing! Friendly service and clean store.
