I absolutely love that EVERYTHING Is Color coded. It really makes shopping a lot easier when you already know the color that you want. Happy Shopping XOXO Stacy Claire. read more

Great selection at this store. Such a huge variety of items with a thrift store price. They have shoes, clothes, purses, electronics, bed and bath decor, toys, furniture, and more. Everything was fairly easy to look at, and organized. One of my new favorite stores. read more

This Red, White & Blue Thrift Store is massive. I have also recently been to the Waterbury, Connecticut location and it might even be bigger. I personally feel a bit claustrophobic with so much stuff everywhere. As with most thrift stores, you would have to spend some time searching to find something worth your time. The clothes and shoes are categorized by type and color. Most appear to be in pretty good shape. However, the prices are higher. They do have color coded sales, I'm not sure if they change daily or weekly. I found a purse I actually wanted to get a few years ago from Nordstrom, in excellent shape and for a fraction of what I would have paid originally. This store is cash only. They also have some finer shoes, jewelry and leather goods behind the counter. If you have the patience or the time you might find something worthy at Red, White & Blue. read more

This place used to be the best. Went Friday and found the cashiers to be very rude. Wasn't like that before.

This first store is huge! The prices are great and was able to find quite a few fun and functional things. I definitely recommend hitting up this spot. read more

Giant selection organized by category and color. There's a huge array of kid items and clothing in great condition as well as housewares. They don't have fitting rooms and only take cash but bargains abound. read more

They have better prices than the West Bank location, but the aisles are tight. Cash only. I forget to bring cash when I go there. They will make money off of your ATM withdrawal conveniently at the front door. I have found a lot of nice items there. read more

Love this place! Huge, and clothes are sorted by color! Very big selection Worth the trip. Cash only. read more

My favorite store with my favorite ladies working. Ms Eva and Ms Demetra make every Saturday and Sunday good for me when I see their smiling faces. read more

Enjoyed wheelchair....found lightweight wheelchair for father....loved the price. Glad I checked the store out, I will be back to check for other items. read more

At 7:30 the staff says they're closed and you have to stop shopping. So don't go there at 7:20 thinking you have time to shop because they're open til 8. Functionally they close at 7:30, but you will still be there til 8 because that's how long the line is. read more

My favorite thrift shop ever!!! Big selection and sometimes a gem is worth finding. d"Does not disappoint!!!

I live about an hour away & decided to check this out, even with mixed reviews....I was not prepared for how HUGE this place is. The prices may seem high at first for designer items HOWEVER-for the condition & brand of some of these, it is worth the price to me-I mean, a pair of designer shoes in nearly new condition for $25 is good in my book. I was beyond delighted to get to the register and find out that certain tags were 50% off-making them $12.50! We were there over 3 hours & I am glad I thought about wearing a tank under my shirt so I could try clothes on-I saw lots of people doing the same thing. All in all, it was worth the drive and I will be back. read more

Cash only thrift store just outside of New Orleans. Great for pickers. Huge store with plenty to choose from. I spent around two hours inside and got a pretty nice haul. Definitely some good items for sale and at very reasonable prices. It just so happened that I showed up on a 50% Off day! Keep an eye out for these great sales. ATMs are available just inside the building to the right as you enter. 4 Stars for sure! I would have given the place a five star review if they served draft beer to drink while I shopped. read more

Rude staff, price increases no thank you. I used to love coming here but now I am not giving the time of day anymore. Ask a question and get cut off. NEVER again. Save yourself some trouble and try another thrift store read more

I used to love this place, the selection of items is great. I always find the best thrift finds here. HOWEVER, the recent price increases are actually ridiculous. $40 for a coach purse that's falling apart and has a stain on it is unacceptable. $35 for a fake Louis V is unacceptable. While I may have the money to afford these items, at the end of the day, you are still a thrift store. You got these items for free, you do not need to mark up the prices so high. There are people who shop here who can't afford these products now because they've been marked up so high. I love this thrift store, but I will not be shopping here anymore if the prices continue to rise read more

love the selection of thrifts & if they would fix the customer service, it would be amazing. they're always so rude. there was this lady and i wish i would've seen her name, but honestly, if she acts like this all the time, you'll know who it is. this was on dec12 at 7:45pm. she had such a nasty face on, and mind you, there were many other people around so it wasn't just us she was treating like this. i don't know. if you hate your job so much, quit. we all don't want to be at our jobs, but have some decency and at least act like you like it. my husband was just trying to buy some toys for my daughter, they were TWO DOLLARS. wasn't able to let him get them for her because SHE (the two year old) got to the bag and opened it. i get the policy man, but like damn. the lady that was next to her was kind enough to tell her to let us purchase it ..it was just the way she handled everything. she straight up hit us with "you can't buy this" no hello, nothing. just a dry monotoned statement with no explanation. and then rudely just points to where the sign is. i won't be coming back, you're things are not worth mistreatment. and again, this was just over some toys for my 2yr old daughter. read more

Well what's not to love about this smorgasbord of ALL THINGS INEXPENSIVE. Located in the warehouse district in Elmwood/Harahan Louisiana; this thrift store is the mother of all things thrift. Several times going here & I'VE NEVER BEEN DISAPPOINTED. 4 Stars instead of 5 for 2 reasons & 2 reasons alone... No fitting room & non-acceptance of credit cards. I just know if folks had the ability to swipe their cards, they would, myself included, purchase more. I mean who cares cash now-a-days??? I'll wait... ok... still waiting... just as I thought, NO ONE, unless you're coming here. But ANYWHO... This place is all things fab because of the variety & plethora of items available for purchase. Paintings, toys, musical equipment, home furnishings, baby items, shoes, clothing, kitchenware, purses, backpacks, luggage & the list goes on and on. Friendly staff are there to assist as needed. And how amazing is the one lady at the register that passes out suckers/lollipops to the kids... amazingly amazing!!!!! Additionally, the staff always seem to be replenishing the stock; I mean where is all this stuff coming from??? ehhhhh IDK & IDC, just bring in the goodies. Last time I shopped there was an additional 50% being taken off all tickets except the red ones... so starts the hunt for non-red tickets, right??? LOL This place is exceptionally a win-win for me because in that I HATE SHOPPING (yes, even for groceries) I ALWAYS leave with something. I mean I literally have purchased a dress for $6; #wheretheydothatat? Here... here is #wheretheydothatat lol. Great place. Great people that hand out lollipops to the kiddies. Great finds. Super Great prices... I'm in & I'll see ya there. read more

They have a large selection of every category: shoes in most colors, purses, clothing, household goods and toys and they have employees putting out more items while they are open. The set up is easy to browse. They offer discounts of 25%-75% on multiple tag colors but each time I've went which is twice red tags have not been on sale and most of the items I bought had red tags. This location was only taking cash but maybe it changed as I went to the other location about a week later and they had a sign saying they now accepted cards. read more

Oh man. Now THIS is a thrift store! After raving about the Westbank Red, White and Blue store, I was determined to check out the original the next time I found myself in Harahan. The day finally came and WHOA- this place makes the Westbank store look like a little baby thrift store. This store is huge and packed from wall to wall with all types of goodies. They are two aisles of dresses! Electronics as far as they eye can see! There were two big working telescopes for sale. Dolls! Books! Knick knacks! House wares! Cool! I knew that this place was big, but I had no idea what I was getting into. I couldn't even shop in all of the sections I wanted to shop in because there was just too much to sort through. I did score a really pretty dress for $10, so I was pretty pleased with that purchase. Bonus points: there was a long line, but the checkout people got us all through really quickly. This place was awesome and I can't wait to come back. I might have to start making a monthly pilgrimage out to this spot. read more

I've been to the store several times. I can't think of any time where I've had nothing but a positive experience. The people are great, the standard announcement over the intercom, no matter how many times you hear it, is entertaining. I've been there several times, but the last time was to pick up a few non-electric games just before the hurricane comes in. You can't beat Jenga for a dollar. Or an art set for a dollar. Sometimes the line is very long, but it goes very fast. They only take cash, which in my opinion is a good thing. Because I could buy the whole store. I have absolutely no complaints about this place. I intend to continue shopping there. read more

I've picked up designer dresses and other items here from brands like Kate Spade, Likely, and Lilly Pulitzer. Some of the dresses were brand new with tags, others were like new. read more

Glad to see it's been a while since someone has left a review. I had to make a quick stop and I shouldn't have stopped in 30 minutes before close, but I didn't think the employees would be so incredibly rude. I would have expected to be approached kindly and told to leave the store/get inline rather that having someone CLAP THEIR HANDS AT ME like I was a dog. Your staff shouldn't be yelling and customers or hitting the displays to try to get my attention and I have found this to be incredibly disrespectful. I may look young be I have worked in customer service long enough to understand when someone isn't being treated fairly. read more

Wow. This was my first time in this thrift store since they moved from the strip mall across the street. Their space has doubled; it's HUGE. The clothes are sorted by gender and then by color (which is a little weird but works). Today there were men trying on dresses for the Buddy D dress parade happening tomorrow in honor of the Saints in the superbowl so that was pretty entertaining. The store was so crowded that I actually wasn't too successful, but perhaps another time without the pushy grandmas & screaming babies. read more

Best thrift store on the east bank, in my humble opinion. Huge selection, color coordinated clothing, lots of things (non-clothing items), there is always something half-priced unless you go on Wednesday and are over 55. It's Senior day. (And, no, thank you silly cashier, I ain't trying to pass for old, It's my dang day off!!) Went last week and saw tons of designer labels and walked out with the cutest pair of boots that had never been worn!! AND, they were half priced..only $5!!! LOVE THAT!! You can leave donations on the back side of the building. read more

Great place to find unexpected treasure! They have a bit of everything. Books, clothing, toys, housewares, Knick knacks and everything in between. Pricing is sometimes a bit high but everyday they have some tags marked half off. So just look for the same tags and you got yourself a good bargain! If you're looking for furniture, don't forget to stop on the drop off room outside where they keep most of the larger pieces. If you love bargain shopping and thrift stores, give this place a try! read more

I went today for the first time because I heard from folks around town that this thrift store was the best! Omg ! It is the best! A few of the associates that I interacted with were extremely nice to me . The lady on the intercom needs to speak clearly because it was a little muffled. If you going to be so strict with the tickets having to stay on the garments that you purchase . Then you need to be strict with the customers coming in with no masks then no entry! I seen a few today that were not asked to leave. I made a mistake today ! The cashier was rude and so was the manager! No worries. They could have been a little nicer. Customer service is not here at this store when checking out! read more

Love this place. Treasures abound! Sometimes u get zero and sometimes it's a huge hit. Massive inventory!

Prices are HIGH!!' People pricing this stuff must be on CRacK!! The clothes are nice, But... "Get ready to Pay$$$$" read more

I love thrift store store shopping. I go to this thrift store when I'm in need of clothes for my sons or myself before shopping at a department store. I went here yesterday because we are going on a cruise and I really scored on clothing items for my boys and only spent $26. This store is very large so you have a great selection. Sometimes I find their prices a little high but yesterday the prices were very reasonable. When I'm shopping for myself, I wish that this store had fitting rooms. read more

The biggest and busiest thrift store in New Orleans and I suspect in the entire state. I believe this is a FOR PROFIT thrift store so don't go getting a warm and fuzzy feeling for donating anything to them as it helps no charity. It amazes me that I rarely find anything on sale here yet they constantly change the sale color tags. I just don't understand it. If you're from out of town and into shopping at thrift stores this is definite store to visit. read more

No one enforcing masks. No one social distancing. People standing on top of each other. Couldn't shop because people kept coming look at clothes right next to me, no distancing. Had to leave empty handed. read more

This place really deserves two stars but I tacked on an extra star for the huuuuge selection. But anyway, hold on to your wallets here and try not to get robbed. When I go to a thrift store I expect to pay thrift store prices but many of the prices here are OUT OF CONTROL. Used shoes for 25 bucks?? Give me a break! I can buy a brand new pair or two, when you catch a BOGO sale at Payless, for the same price. I found one Sperry shoe that retails for about 75 bucks here for $14.99. I paid A TOTAL of $3.45 for the same EXACT shoe a few days earlier at the Goodwill on Tulane. The children's shirts I looked at were $4. Come on now! GIVE ME A BREAK! EVERY thrift store I have EVER gone to normally price children's clothing at 1.95 tops. Other than that, if you keep your wits about you there are plenty of cheap finds here. I just prefer to go to a place that doesn't insult my intelligence. Also, the cashier said that many items are half price on Saturdays so its best you go then. Like others have said bring cash. Don't rely on their ATM. (When I went it was broken and I had to drive 15 minutes away to a Rite Aid to get some cash back.) read more

Huge selection & ample parking, I've plowed through their clothing and found some good stuff (nothing outstanding, though). I'm taking off a star for being a CASH ONLY establishment and another for being pretty pricey on alot of stuff. It's not uncommon for shoes to be $29.99 or ties to be $12.99. That's cray cray. read more

It requires some time and patience, but you will find some awesome deals here. My latest finds were 6 never-worn Nike tennis skirts - even at their full-price, it was less than what I would have paid for one of them at regular stores. I've found a few great dresses and skirts, but it is hard to find ones that are not polyester or rayon. I have better luck with tops and button-ups. They also have slips and tanks and scrubs. I have never looked at their pants - not because they're bad but I'm just not interested in pants or jeans. And there are lots of fancy ball gowns, perfect for Mardi Gras costumes. They have nice bead necklaces. Found a couple of bags, but always look on the inside in case it's gross for one reason or another. I do like how it's organized by color since it makes it easier to look based on what I already own. When you go, wear thin fabrics so you can try stuff on over your clothes. And bring more cash than you think you'll need. I'm always surprised by how much money I spend there, but then I look at the two white garbage bags of clothes on the counter and it suddenly makes sense. Tip: don't go on Wednesdays unless you are a senior citizen. There are no 50% off on certain colored tags on Wednesdays, just for senior citizens. All in all, totally worth the drive and the effort. A+ all the way! read more

This store probably has the best selection of "pre-owned" merchandise of all the thrift stores in the NOLA area. I live on the Westbank, but I prefer this location over the one in Marrero. With a 1 year old toddler, I have mostly given up on buying her brand new clothes every 2-3 months. Red, White, and Blue saves me a TON of money. They have absolutely adorable baby/kids clothes. My only complaint is that the clothes aren't sorted by size. This seems like the logical way to do it. Yes, if I'm looking for a lime green t-shirt, it will be easy to find since they're sorted by color... but if it doesn't fit, I'm not going to buy it. I'd much rather look through the clothes that will fit, and see if something jumps out at me. Then again, maybe this is a good thing since it keeps me from bothering to even look through the adult clothes... I mainly stick to baby/kids clothes and the random household items. read more

My favorite place for thrifting in the NOLA/Metry area... Their new building (which is across the street from the old one) is much better! It's a lot bigger which is good, but it can still get pretty crowded making your way thru all the aisles. They do have a great selection though.. It is cash only, as most thrift stores usually are. They have an ATM inside just in case you need it. I always find great buys there. As other Yelpers have noted, I seem to find a lot of brand new Naturalizer shoes and Ann Taylor Loft tops too. Even better when they are half off based on their color tickets for the day too!! Wish they had longer hours and dressing rooms would be nice too. Most people just try the clothes on over the clothes they're wearing though.. Definitely a fun place to check out!! read more

Awful! DO NOT GIVE THIS BUSINESS ANY OF YOUR MONEY! Rudest experience I've had in years. I just stopped by to make a donation. My car is completely filled with donations. We are moving and donating a lot. I walked to the back , the place labeled Donation Drop Off ,,,, I had one bag in my hand-- I wanted to find out where to put my donations before emptying my entire car . The donation room attendant was snippy, snappy, cold, callous and rude . He shouted and cursed at me , and I was just trying to make a donation. I will obviously be taking my donations elsewhere. This kind of customer service should NOT BE TOLERATED. I suggest taking your business elsewhere. read more

Red White & Blue was a pretty darn good thrift shopping experience. It's huge, and seems pretty well organized. Clothes are organized by color, not size, which seems kind of odd and can be rather frustrating when you find something and think, aw, cute!, and then realize it's about six sizes too small. But I kind of liked the color organization scheme. I don't wear yellows and oranges much, so I could just skip those sections and flip through the colors I do like to wear. They had a decent plus size section, and it was pretty well kept to plus sizes - not too many small sizes mixed in, which is a nice change from a lot of thrift stores. They had a pretty good system up front to keep the checkout line moving. As this was our first visit, we weren't familiar with it, so we were a little slow, but it works. If you've got clothes, take them off the hangers and leave the hangers on the yellow rack up front before you get to the register. That way the cashiers don't lose time messing with the hangers. There were grab bags of merchandise in different categories, and that could be fun. We didn't get any today because the things we saw grab bags of, we just didn't need. But that could be fun, to pay a few bucks and see what you come home with. There seemed to be a pretty wide variety of stuff there, and we could have spent a lot more time hunting for treasures. Some things were really inexpensive, and some were a good bit more than I'd expect to pay for thrift store purchases (like the Land's End shirt for $29 - yeah, it was a pretty shirt, but I can catch sales on the Land's End website cheaper than that). Our one complaint is that they staple tags to clothing. Yes, this makes it easier to see when the clothes are hanging on the rack, but a pain to take off without tearing up your clothes when you get home. Overall, a good experience, and we'll visit there again. read more

My absolute favorite thrift store! It can be pricey, but there are a lot of great deals!
