I heard these two guys talking and when it was my turn to unload I had to ask a few questions. By the way they unloaded my car, were helpful and respectful, all that you want to see in an employee. What I heard was them complaining about being bullied at work by management, talked down too, insulted and belittled - causing mental stress and depression. One of them was close to tears, he was poorly spoken too at the start of his shift....Dumb move on your part VV.....humiliate them and then let them be your stores upfront representatives! Value Village you have an incredible opportunity to mold these young men into great future employees for any company outside high school so DO BETTER! It is obvious shopping in the store that you have an all around unhappy staff. Your reputation is already mud by price gouging, maybe retrain your upper level staff so that they have a clue on a Respectful Work Environment. I think it's time we reconsider doing business elsewhere....

This store has a large selection of clothes, and is labelled so everything is easy to find. They have clothes, books, toys, shoes, jewelry, paintings, home decor and more. They have handy changing rooms if you wanna try on some of the clothes, which I think is nice! I've always found something to bring home after coming here. And the prices are great, I was able to get 3 books for $10! The store itself is nothing fancy, but its worth a visit if you like thrift shopping!

Today I donated a very expensive chair. While the item was kindly being removed from my car i…read moreobserved the following which I find disturbing. There was a huge amount of outdoor wood chairs, perhaps as many as 15. I saw a staff member putting several if the chairs in a walk in dumpster. I asked the staff member assisting me if they were being thrown away. The furniture manager of the store told me too many had been donated and were indeed being thrown away. Im 69, a senior, a widow, on pension, experiencing difficulties with today's economic crisis and managing on our Canadian pension. I asked the manager since he was throwing them away, could I have 2 of these chairs as I could really use them. Remember they are headed for the land fill. I was promptly told NO. I would have to wait until the chairs being kept, we're priced and placed on the sales floor. I have shopped at Value Village a lot. I have recently moved and done a lot of purging of my personal items, several loads full in my SUV. I THINK its time the community find elsewhere to donate items. The prices are getting too expensive. We are being charged sales tax on items donated which was already tax when sold originally. Since we provide the inventory to Value Village and receiving a crap 20 percent discount, the discount for giving inventory should be 40 percent. I wish everyone would get together and set a time period for an organized BOYCOTT to register this is wrong and needs to be corrected. For those who don't know. Clothing that isn't sold is being bundled, sold and shipped to other countries. I have seen glasses and dishes thrown into garbage containers, to be broken since they didn't sell. Value Village need to rethink their policies and procedures.
