    I've been a regular shopper at Savers since I started shopping there during Covid. There are SO…read moremany good clothes to be had. One might be surprised by what people donate. I like that I'm choosing a more environmentally friendly option while also enjoying the savings to our budget. The only thing is, you have to look the clothing over really well before you buy. Some people donate clothes that have holes in them. I don't understand why people do that, but they do. I've told my husband that I have the best wardrobe I've ever had in my life since I started shopping at Savers/Goodwill. It can be a little overwhelming when you go in, so go with the idea of shopping for just a few items. Then, if you have the time, browse a few other areas. It is always so much fun to see what you might find. The return policy is exchange only. If you can try it on in the isle, then you know if it fits. If you cannot try it on, then plan carefully for a return (exchange). Buy used!

    I came here for the first time on a Monday with my mom, who's more familiar with this store. She…read moreasked a few staff members about the "color of the day" discount, but the experience wasn't great -- the first person was dismissive, the second just guessed, and the third at the register was pretty snappy, finally telling her that the discounts aren't until Wednesday. That miscommunication set the tone a bit. The store itself is fairly organized for a thrift shop, but I'm not sure if the clothes are cleaned before they hit the racks. Pricing was on the higher side for secondhand items. I found a top for $13 that easily felt like it should've been $5 or less. Unless the money goes to a good cause (which wasn't clear), it felt a little overpriced. Location-wise, it's in a rougher part of town with a visible homeless population, and I honestly didn't feel very safe walking in and out. That's not necessarily the store's fault, but it did affect the overall experience. Overall, I may or may not come back. There were some decent finds, but between the staff interactions, prices, and location, it wasn't the most welcoming visit

You could even invite neighbors to enjoy this during the same pickup. They are so friendly, they will load it and it goes to a great cause. A little tip for the drivers never hurt. We usually give them money to split for lunch. You don't have to, but we regularly give and appreciate that they offer this service.

    This is hands-down the best Salvation Army I've been to. They have a $1 color of the week, and…read moreevery afternoon the entire store becomes 50% off! The man working at the front was very kind and pleasantly engaged everyone who came through the door. The housewares section was small, but I didn't really look at what they had because I was only interested in clothes and shoes. I wear vintage-y clothes mostly, and this was the perfect place. I got 3 cool sweaters for only $5! I regret not buying a couple of the pairs of shoes I had looked at. They had an excellent selection of older-styled leather pumps that were made of quality materials and were in near-perfect shape. There's also a counter and waiting area in the back where they help out people who come in needing a little help :) The reason I'm not giving 5 stars is because it is one of the messier/unkempt thrift stores I've been into, and I ended up just trying on the sweaters in front of a mirror next to the racks because so many things were piled in front of the dressing room that it was impossible to get into. I probably would have bought more if I had been able to try stuff on!

    It's difficult enough to witness the masses of homeless scattered throughout our Duke City streets,…read morevirtually everywhere. Unlike so many major metropolitan areas, ABQ has very few neighborhoods delineated by income; simply put, in much of the city, doctors live next to artists who live next to drug addicts who live next to hedge fund managers. It's a weird town, just ask a taxi driver. It's also a relatively temperate place to huddle down if you don't have a home. Well, until November, that is. As a father, this time of year is exceptionally difficult to imagine from the point of view (and starved belly) of a homeless kid. Freezing, cursed to suffer life's ravages through no fault of their own, there are many, many more of them than you'll see standing near a freeway entrance. I heard the official number on the radio this morning: 1 in 30 U.S. children will experience homelessness this year. I'm betting that ratio is inordinately higher in this city. Joy Junction is New Mexico's largest emergency homeless shelter. I've visited a few times, only to pick up my daughter, who has donated a fair amount of time feeding the residents. A drive along the property spells out the culture within: underfunded, overwhelmed, people barely survive beyond serious struggle, here. There's plenty of sadness, dispute and tough stuff happening here everyday. All of it tucked deep into the South Valley far away from Tanoan and Ridgecrest. My impression is that the organization does the very best it can with limited resources. This holiday season, consider donating your time, money or material possessions (they have a terrific thrift store and donation center). They can use every last bit of you.

    Female staff are mean as snakes except the one nice black lady, who actily speaks to the clients…read morewith respect... Food is usually undercooked chicken or nasty vegan breads that didn't sell at Trader Joe's. They have 20 kinds of spices in the kitchen but staff doesn't bother to use them. Joy Junction in one word: Crap in the name of Christ. They post online photos of the meals on Facebook for their DONORS (it's all about the money, they don't respect the homeless AT ALL....) every day, but don't show the bruised apples, etc. that they commonly serve almost every day... Freezers full of delicious food they don't bother to cook.... They have salad dressing but usually don't bother to use any. Try having salad every day for three weeks with no dressing, yuck. Seniors can't eat any of the salads cuz they're full of hard-to-eat vegetables that you can't eat with teeth or gum issues. They make residents 'volunteer' 20 hours a week even if they have chronic pain. They make people take the gravel outside even when it's 20 degrees outside and they have no gloves.... They staff at the gatehouse work 'security' but have not even a knife to defend themselves. Once there was an armed person on the premises and they did nothing to protect the 'volunteers' at the guard shack. ('Volunteering' is required or they kick you out... it's dishonest to call it 'volunteering' since that's a lie and Christians should not lie....' But staff lies in word and deed to protect their precious reputation... Six of the paid staff have narcissistic disorder (I've written two books on psych and I know my stuff....) Any questions?
