One Star - Very Disappointing Experience…read more Unfortunately, my family and I had a very unpleasant experience at Treasure House Mall, and we will not be returning. When we first entered the store, we were warmly greeted by a sweet elderly woman who welcomed us, held my daughter's tiny dog, and even encouraged us to explore downstairs. Based on that interaction, we believed having the small dog was not an issue. Shortly after, another staff member approached us. This staff member was very heavy set Hispanic man. He so very rudely told us we had to leave immediately because of the dog. His tone was smug, dismissive, and completely unprofessional, which was especially upsetting given that we had already been welcomed moments earlier. There was no polite explanation or attempt to resolve the situation--just an abrupt demand that we leave. This incident was even more frustrating because just a few days prior, the same employee told us we only had 15 minutes to shop when there was still over an hour left before closing. At this point, the repeated negative encounters with the same individual made us feel singled out and unwelcome. As Black customers who live in Barstow and have shopped here frequently, it's incredibly disappointing to feel treated this way. Whether intentional or not, the inconsistency and hostility in how we were handled came across as discriminatory and left a very bad impression. Treasure House Mall seriously needs to address this employee's behavior. Rudeness, inconsistency, and lack of professionalism drive loyal local customers away. Sadly, our family will no longer be supporting this business.

3.7 stars. The thrift store portion is unattractive and messy. We didn't make a purchase. The…read moreantique mall next door is very interesting and thoughtfully merchandised. I would have loved to stay, shop, and drop some cash but it was 108° outside and these businesses do not have adequate cooling. It was absolutely awful. I usually take lots of photos in antique malls but I wasn't enjoying myself this time due to the discomfort, so I didn't take any. Me and another person in my party got lightheaded and left. It was a bummer. Like, how are you in the middle of the desert without proper air conditioning for your customers, let alone your poor employees?

Which happens to be the Helendale Thrift Store. Anytime I am in the neighborhood I stop by at this quaint wonderful thrift store. I am a professional thrifter who buys mass inventory. (Usually books) The owner of this thrift is a very nice gentleman who honored a previous deal that I had with one of the staff. He didn't have to but he did, which made me want to come to this thrift store anytime I am in town. I felt respected and appreciated as a customer and enjoyed the pleasant smiles and stories from the staff. Fantastic deals at a great price. Parking is never a problem as the location is very customer friendly. Come in for variety of great items and you won't be disappointed. This place is GIGANTIC! You might get lost in a clothing rack of treasure, or sit on your next new couch, nonetheless you will be walking out with something great.

I've found everything from antique Fiestaware to a huge glass and wood display hutch - prices range from fair to really good - HUGE craft section that always seems to have fabric, notions, and paper craft supplies. There are always other misc craft supplies, too. - tools are vetted before being put out for sale, and the one time I brought a drill home that didn't work Dove's very kindly gave me store credit, which I promptly used to grab a different drill that did - Dove's will deliver furniture and other large items for a very reasonable fee, and even place it where you want it in your house - local's discount day every week - sales support the local women and children's shelter

One of the rooms could easily be made into a baby item room, they have tools protected instead of the baby play mats, strollers, high chairs, and car seats. It is all sun rotted and has been damaged by rain. They have so many great items for children and babies that have all continued to sit and be damaged. They have a whole room of dishes that could be easily be rearranged to one side of the room, the layout and baby/children items needs to be redone, not thrown out as if they are less important than dishes. They are also selling diapers at an insane markup. The brand baby2baby diapers are diapers that are distributed at diaper drives and their mission is for them to always be free, not to be sold and especially priced at 8-15 dollars. The diapers have sadly been thrown on a shelf outside and have lost its value by rain and just by being kept outside.

The shop owner was very kind to let us explore all the nooks and crannies of the shop & very helpful in checking out our items. A nice little stop if you're in town!!

What a gem to find such a small thrift store, but Big Bear Valley Hummingbird project is not…read moresomething you see out of Big Bear Blvd., named as such since the signage outside is not easy to read. I am so glad that I dropped in, and honestly I could have been here for awhile. The minute you enter, there are tons of clothing, but when looking for specific items that are antiques (ish) then you are in for a treat. People might think the thrift store is not organized but honestly they all have the same look to me & the scent of old bookstores/garage smell. But when I am in the mood to look for old cast iron objects specially old soap dishes, or anything that appears retro, this place has them. And the man who was helping me was quite nice and lucky me 50% off as it was labor day special. And I liked another item, that I came back to purchase the Native American Headdress (war bonnet). I was lucky it was still there because it caught my attention, hesitant because it is definitely an honor to find it and my hands drew me to the item when I was purchasing a cast iron bird/fountain. Also awhile back I did come down a few years ago and a lady who worked there was giving us free books. Also showing off the items that I was happy with! I went to Doves and the Fun Stuff thrift store and could not find anything remotely close to what I found at Hummingbird. There was also Mountain Mod and that place was cool but only if you want to spend $25-maybe even $500+ for things that probably can be found in estate sales. Definitely checking out Hummingbird on my next trip!
