The prices are more reasonable than those in the 24th Ave shop and they goods are top quality. We love this place! Half my wardrobe comes from there. The money they have contributed to the Peace Arch Hospital over the years (more than 13 millions) indicates that their prices are right, they keep the products moving and they have the right stuff. Check it out!

I didn't even know that was the case at first, as it's so bright, clean and organized. It looks like a smaller department store. Clothing is arranged by size, and then within that size, by colour. They have a good selection of cool clothing that looks to be in good to excellent condition. However there were a few items that screamed retire me please ! Besides woman's, men's and kids clothes, they have -Toys - they had some Monster high dolls for cheap ! -Books - good fair price -Housewears -Accessories -Footwear The change rooms are large and you can bring up to 9 items in at a time. They have a loyalist card which earns points with every purchase. You can also get 30% off coupon with large 2 bag donation. It can be hit or miss - but it's worth checking out if you are in the area !

It's amazing how long people hold onto furniture and clothes them release it for it to be discovered by who? Someone who refurbishes old pieces?! Because that's all that comes to mind. I want to strip them down and revamp the design however it would be a huge undertaking and in the end I would rather just have fun looking. The clothes here are not as abundant as value village but I found a cute dress for $5 and that's the kind of thrifting I like. I like to have lots of outfits to use for working on movies as an extra, or just to have. I've always enjoyed a good well loved piece, something clean but lived in with personality. Their are 3 thrift stores all located within minutes of each other. I also donate here , Talize and value village. Its all about the recycling of household items and clothes. I recently downsized after a move and it felt good to re-home some treasured gems and useful possessions.

I was NOT told beforehand that the original tags had to be on all of the items. After all the trouble to properly clean, press, and hang in drycleaned's bags to then have them be refused in such a disrespectful manner, was surprising to me! I took all of my clothes to Value Village and I'M DONE WITH CONSIGNMENT STORES! Their so-called "RULES" do not provide their patrons with the quality of care that's deserved by all. Funny because my clothes were all designer brands and I chose to take off the neck labels as we all know that those labels are very scratchy and uncomfortable. To me the store was uncomfortable and they lost out of quality clothing.All from either "Melanie Lyn and Olsen brands"! The worker didn't even look at the items that HAD TAGS ON THEM and were sleeveless summer tops. She JUST MADE A RASH DECISION. Bad choices for the business.

What an amazing evening! In fact, it was one of the best comedy events I've ever had the pleasure of attending. The evening's title was perfectly chosen: Grief n' Giggles - Coffin Up Comedy. If that name alone doesn't make you smile, the performers certainly will. Perhaps the most unexpected part of the evening was the venue itself: Victory Memorial Park Funeral Centre. Having only lived in White Rock for a short time, I had no idea this beautiful facility even existed. And before you let the words "funeral home" scare you off, don't. It's a stunning property with peaceful grounds that are perfect for a nature walk. Not exactly the first place that comes to mind when someone says, "Want to get some fresh air?" but maybe it should be. The brochure featured the tagline: "They say laughter is the best medicine, so we're throwing an event all about healing with humour -- no prescription required." Judging by the roughly 300 people in attendance, I'd say the prescription was filled. The evening was expertly hosted by Cliff Prang, who didn't miss a beat. OMG, he was hilarious. Melanie Rose and Vanessa Woznow rounded out the comedy roster, and together they delivered a night of laughter that had the audience roaring. You know how it is when you walk into a venue you've never been to before. There's the cautious step through the doorway, followed by the obligatory scan of the room to make sure you haven't accidentally wandered into the wrong event. In my case, I was greeted by no fewer than five different people: one welcomed me, two signed me in, one escorted me to the elevator, and finally there was the handsome gentleman whose sole duty appeared to be pressing the elevator button. I've never felt so important in my life. Once on the second floor, I discovered an entire reception area dedicated to mingling, complete with beautifully arranged buffet tables offering complimentary food and beverages. This came as a complete surprise since admission was by donation only. I had come prepared for comedy, not hors d'oeuvres. Needless to say, I adapted quickly. Later, the same elevator gentleman took the time to point out a beautifully handcrafted horse-drawn coffin carriage dating back to the 1890s. It was an extraordinary piece of craftsmanship and a fascinating glimpse into local history. Stunning woodwork and well worth a look. A special shout-out goes to two lovely ladies, Jeanette and Rosetta, whom I met while enthusiastically sampling the buffet. Rosetta is a vivacious volunteer at the Peace Arch Hospice Society Thrift Store, which apparently provides significant funding for the Society's programs. Another shout-out goes to the lady seated beside me, whose infectious laugh kept me laughing throughout the show. Sometimes laughter is contagious in the very best way. Finally, a heartfelt thank you to all the volunteers and organizers who helped make this first-class event possible. From the warm welcome to the delicious refreshments and the outstanding comedy, everything was thoughtfully planned and beautifully executed. If this was my first Peace Arch Hospice Society event, it certainly won't be my last.
