I've been a long time visitor at Ares thrift store. This week I dropped by to make a donation…read more(thank you Marie Kondo for encouraging me to get rid of some things that no longer bring me joy). It was super snowy out and I noted there were no donations left at the door. There was also a sign that said to knock (as the doorbell is out of order) to ensure that you leave your donations with a staff member. No prob! A few knocks later a nice woman came out to retrieve my donation and offer me a receipt. And off I was to my next errand. On other occasions I've perused their aisles for nearly an hour. There is truly a lot to look at. I picked up a stellar pair of like new Levi's jeans (for only $8) and am now a huge Levi's fan. During Halloween and Christmas their offerings are unmatched. They do a stellar job of putting everything out neatly and at fair prices. They also have events from time to time, one of which I won two $5 vouchers (they are so cute and have prarie dogs on them!). Excite to make another donation soon. Three cheers for spring cleaning!

Well organized and labeled offerings throughout including outerwear, footwear, jewelry and more. Coupons can be found in local university coupon booklets scattered around town.

I'll definitely be poking in for some vintage or unique finds for guys and gals.

We came in to browse this large thrift store. The layout is nothing fancy - just a large open space…read morethat runs unusually deep/back with dozens of carousels, each packed with hanging articles. They are organized as one might expect - by gender, season, size. And, as one might expect, there are a fair number of items on the wrong carousels, more than likely by a lazy patron quickly unburdening their hand as they change their mind about something. Unlike most other secondhand stores, this one has a substantial mix of mens items too. I was surprised to find a couple of unique, lightweight sweaters.... and they happened to be 25% off too. On this wknd afternoon the place was busy. There are 4-5 dressing "rooms" (standup spots with curtains that you draw completely around you - kinda nifty if maybe a little vulnerable feeling but I didn't mind). There was often a short line for a dressing room but people tended to move quickly - maybe because of those surround curtains that don't reach all the way to the floor, Lol. Checkout was easy and if I recall, returns are accepted, with receipt, tags, within 7 days, and then only for store credit. Aside: One thing that impressed me also is how the owner/mgr, consistently, and seemingly sincerely, responds to the harshest reviews here. I did observe that most of the negatives centered around sellers... probably something to be expected in this inherently subjective and fickle business.

It can be great for treasure hunting. Yesterday, picked up like-new Hunter boots ($17) and tee…read more(half off, $1.50). But they have spent their last year becoming less customer-friendly. They redid their pricing; which was previously by type and now by item. The tags talk about returns, but the store is final sale. And yesterday in the middle of the afternoon they decided to close their fitting rooms forever. Their restroom is also closed. Arc Thrift continues to reign supreme in CO.

The rack shape made it hard to swipe through clothes, or even get a cart around the store. I've never seen a store not have rows of straight racks...! The selection here is VERY Colorado. As someone visiting from out of state, I loved seeing the differences: lots of Colombia, Duluth Trading Co, etc. so some great brand finds can be had here. Lots of college student clothes and CU gear here too. They had just put out Halloween costumes and decor so that took over a good amount of the store, but you could still navigate it decently. I'm SO sad that most Goodwills - including this one - have moved away from dressing rooms. It forces people to try things on out in the open in front of the mirrors. Service at the counter was friendly and quick: I found a sweatshirt and two tops that came home with me!

Be that through my wallet or through making donations. Friends have had great experiences consigning items in the upstairs portion, while I've enjoyed shopping in the upstairs portion. There's always furniture, art, glassware and more. I picked up some lovely 1950's milk glass spice bottles in the past which I'm still enjoying using. The downstairs part is the "thrift store". Don't let the size fool you. There is lots of good stuff down here. From purses, to shoes, to jewelry and books, they really have a great selection. If you donate they give you a receipt and a coupon good towards your next purchase. Score! I highly recommend checking this place out.

But now I am just a donor to their shop and I really enjoy knowing my various donations will not go unused.

So I called to see if the could use wallpaper and told me they would even take an operas roll in addition to the two still sealed. I got a rude over this morning so we could easily park as soon as they opened. It's a great shop stocked with so much in so many categories, every crafter and fiber artist around should stop by.
