For reference, I found a dress with a retail price of $99... for $20. What is this sorcery?? I am plus-size and usually can't find clothes at second hand / vintage / thrift stores. Not only did I have many options in many styles, a lot of the clothes were stocked alongside straight sizes. It's such a great feeling. The book section is so beautiful, with cozy chairs that you're welcome to relax in after shopping. I walked out with nearly $250 worth of clothes for $40. And knowing that the proceeds help women who are exiting the sex trade or in addiction recovery makes me want to go back and spend more. So if you're looking for gorgeous and affordable clothes, get over to the Loft. You might walk out with the deal of a lifetime.

They are always fully staffed, helpful, organized and always doing something, no one is ever just standing around. If there's stuffed left outside it's because people drop off after business hours. If you want to eat at a restaurant you wouldn't go after hours right? Pretty simple...Cheers!

They're located on the backside of Swampscott Middle School and the friendly volunteers told me that they've been open for four years. They operate to raise funds for the Swampscott school system. This place is awesome - they have mostly clothes for adults and kiddos, with some small home goods and a smattering of other random items. I got some great stuff and all on the cheap - 2 pair of pants, 2 workout tops, a pair of boots, a backpack, and a couple small decorative items, all for about $20. I'll be visiting this store again, and I hope you will, too! Word to the wise, they're only open Wed mornings and Saturdays until 1 and they seem to be cash only (tho I didn't verify this).

I've been to this Savers a few times and I have left with some great stuff! They have sections for…read moreeverything you can think of: clothing, kitchenware, toys, games, furniture, books, crafts, accessories, etc. It does take a while to sort through everything; the shelves and racks are pretty crowded/stuffed. I usually don't bother sorting through the bagged up items on the walls because they're too difficult to get through. However, the clothing section is VERY organized for a thrift store (I found maybe 2 misplaced items-- that's it!). They have tons of XS clothing, which is usually scarce in other stores. I wish they had a bigger craft section (usually just yarn), but I guess that's based off what donations they receive so kind of out of their control. The books section is pretty big and they usually have some kind of deal or sale! As for pricing, it's really inconsistent and tends to be a bit on the higher side. The first time I went, I found a vintage wooden side table in super good condition for $9.99; but a pair of worn American Eagle jeans for $13.99...... Last time I went, I spent about $40 & left with 7 items (4 pairs of jeans, a shirt, a purse, & a pair of shoes). It's very hit or miss but it usually evens out when you see your total. Parking is usually great; it's a parking lot in the same area as DSW but usually not crowded, even on weekends. I will say it is a little dirty in there and they don't really clean out any of the items before shelving them. I found a few purses with crumbs, tissues, old lipstick blotters, etc. They do get this stuff for free so I obviously don't expect a deep clean of every item, but a quick once-over would be nice considering their pricing can be high. COVID changes: masks are required in store, and their fitting rooms are closed. You can EXCHANGE (not return) any items that don't fit after you get them home. All employees were wearing their masks, wiping down the shopping carts, wearing gloves, etc.!
