there is a younger black girl who works here , who on several occasions has falsely accused several people of theft with no basis , I've personally had her re price an item that I purchased after it was paid for, which as anyone who has worked in retail knows is a breach of local consumer laws and regulations. On a recent trip I watched her blatantly attempt to ban some one on the basis of "their shopping habits " and when questioned refused to explain further . I'm not sure if she's just bitter bc all she has is a minimum wage job at value village and feels the need to assert some dominance in her life but regardless her behaviour is appalling and management should have her fired immediately as she clearly does not follow local laws and or regulations for retail spaces. read more

Value village sell products very expensive like new products which are donated by public not buy from wholesale market. Prices of some products specifically garments are higher than new product in the market. People those can not offord new items ( Clothes or miscellaneous things) they visit the value village store to fulfill their need in cheaper price as they think but value village disappointed them by high items price. I personally experienced this by visited several value village stores in Mississauga, Brampton, Vaughan, Oakville, and Burlington, and took pictures of their selling products for reference but can't show due to not attachment option. I protest and demand by Value village management to look into this matter seriously and resolve it wisely by keeping in view prices that Value village is a second hand store and needy/poor customers are approaching their stores to buy second hand products.

I went to this location today and just got books after helping a friend move. It has more selections compared to the Salvation Army Thrift Store across the street (probably because it has a bigger space.) The staff seemed very friendly, welcoming and patient. The items on the shelves are very organized and they seemed to be a little new or are in very good condition. They are sorted into what they are (ex. cups are with cups, candles and candles holders are in the candle area) compared to the Salvation Army Thrift Store which looks like a kid's messy room. Also, I think they might be slightly more cheaper compared to the Salvation Army ones. The books are sorted based on genre but they are a little pricey which is my only complaint. However, I think that the deal they have is somewhat good/decent (buy 4, get 1 free) because you get the the 5th free though you will have to pay around $20 (plus tax & give or take a few dollars) for 5 books. read more

Largest Value Village I've visited. This is my new favourite location, runners-up are Islington (Etobicoke), and Bloor St W (Toronto). As with any thrift shopping, you have to frequent constantly to see what is available. Helps if you sign up for their Super Savers Club, prices can be really good if you wait for sales. read more

I don't get the bellyaching about the prices. Jeans for $24.99? Maybe but they're usually stuck on jeans that retail for $300 in the store! A bowl for $9.99? Probably, but did the reviewer check if the bowl was Wedgwood or Royal Doulton? Same item, different colour, different price? I'm sure if you point this out to the staff, they would happily honour the lower priced item. Prices are higher because there are so many resellers that come by, swooping things up, so all these thrifts stores have smartened up about their pricing. So that's why tops are no longer $1 and don't forget inflation as well! On to the review for this particular location... Store is fully renovated, large, organised, nicely lit, and clean for the most part. At least there are restrooms for customers. Like most stores, you hafta know which workers to ask for assistance, some are more helpful/friendlier than others, but for the most part they're pretty good. Staff is constantly restocking sales floor throughout the week, so there's a lot to look through. Merchandise is moving a lot quicker at this location than their older one, so I am finding less stuff, but it's all about timing when you go thrifting! No complaints and a vast and welcomed improvement from their original location. Parking lot is much better because there are fewer tenants. read more

It took a long time for me to write a review on this Value Village, because I needed to visit it a lot to get a better understanding. My association with the relocated Dixie/Dundas Value Village began in January 2017, when I was invited to a pre-opening event because of my status as a Club Card member. It was a bit of a surprise walking in for the first time - the place was absolutely sprawling. From what I gathered at the time, this location is twice as big as the previous site across the street near the Talize. The whole corner block has quickly turned into a hub for thrift stores - this site is now directly across the street from the Salvation Army and Talize (both of which I've spoken about in previous reviews). After visiting this Value Village frequently for the past three months, I'm confident in saying that this is now my new favorite in the city. (As an aside, for those complaining about the lack of finds - this store was, and will continue to be, a prime target for resellers. At the pre-opening event, I watched a man run to the records section and immediately start hoarding a stack of LPs, most likely destined for eBay. It's the nature of the beast.) The store is a bit overwhelming. Not only are there racks upon racks of clothing, but the specialty sections are surprisingly well-curated. I always make a beeline for the books whenever I come in, and I've been consistently surprised by the quality and selection of books. A thrift store is only as good as the donations it gets, and I've been impressed with the amount of content they get in. The vintage/collectible books section consistently has stuff that looks either brand-new or being sold at a significant loss (i.e. Folio Society books, signed books, Penguin collectible titles). The clothing itself is another high point - I've found everything from Brooks Brothers to Hugo Boss suits here, and a dizzying amount of shoes, jeans and other accessories. Of course, the knick-knack section runs into the same problem as any other thrift store. Picked over and filled with broken or unusable items. To their credit, though, I almost always see employees restocking whenever I visit. I'm a bit more comfortable paying higher prices for thrifted goods when I know the selection is well-maintained and highly curated. This Value Village has quickly turned into one of my favorite spots in the city to go thrifting at, and it's one I plan on visiting frequently for a long time to come. Well worth checking out. read more

I have a love hate relationship with Value Village. This new re-vamped version of the old store has it's ups and downs. The store layout is gorgeous, wide selection of clothes for all shapes and sizes, decent size of house wares and knickknacks, the whole store is done very nicely. The decor really brings it together. I originally had doubts that they would be able to fill the old future shop but they did. The "donation centre" is a nice touch as it prevents people from leavings bags of stuff outside the door. (A common occurance for the old location) But then.. the pricing... as another reviewer stated, the pricing is ridiculous. $19.99 for a used dress... with *gross* stains? Really? $24.99 for used new balance shoes? $9.99 for a glass bowl? Woah.. so that's what's paying for the spiffy new location. Value Village is known for having ridiculous markups that aren't justified, but this is getting ridiculous. If they aren't careful people will stop shopping at this "thrift store" and will be shopping at Talize instead. If I wanted to pay brand name prices, i'd go to brand name stores not overpriced, inflated "thrift stores." 2/5 read more

Value Village - Fancy decals in the changeroom - Thrift Stores Near Me - Mississauga, Ontario

best vv in and around Toronto, no competition. sizewise next one is Richmond Hill. spacious, renovated and clean but selection depends when you arrive. this place and nearby Talize are well known to get scavenged by resellers all the time so try to come as early as possible(weekend definitely before noon!) 4.2/5, some prices can be overwhelming. read more

Dropped by this location with my mom at reopening. HUGE selection. Items well organized and easy to navigate to. They went above and beyond to ensure everyones health and safety is met with prescreening questions. Grabbed a lot of attire for work and casual wear. I scored lots of name brands - from mint CK and Ralph Lauren dress shirts, lacoste polos, Guess sweater all at fraction of retail price. No dressing room so you kinda have to guess your fit. But the biggest change is they now have lineups at showcase which I love, because before it was whoever the loudest was next and staff always played favorites with the regulars. My mom got a lot of neat fancy china plates. She said it was cheaper here then at the flea market. Everything was 30% off on Tuesday for seniors!! Customer service was great as well, Im sure because alot of them are happy to be back at work. read more

I rarely leave negative reviews, but this has just been bothering me... I don't know if it's just this location or a Value Village thing, as this is the only location I have been to and really have no interest in checking out another but it is grossly overpriced. For a store that solely runs on donated items it's ridiculous. This is not a consignment store, yet prices higher than one. I found numerous items priced higher than what they would be in store...BRAND NEW. As someone who constantly donates unwanted clothes, I will NEVER donate to a Value Village as I can guarantee at least this location would price gauge my items. read more

It's big, new, clean and over priced for a "thrift" store. It's a massive location with barely any change rooms. The building used to be a Future Shop. The decor is really good. It's just a shame there's so much garbage with big price tags. Ripped jeans for $35? Super scratched kitchen pots and pans for $20? Womens shoes/boots with no tread for $45? Coffee stained "Coach" wallet for $70? Brand name garbage. Literally garbage! No thanks! They're charge brand new prices for worthless items that have no life left in them. Save yourself the time and go over to Talize. read more

I don't like the horribly rude cashier named Jose. He was mean to my son. He literally grabbed my son's hand when he went to press a button on the debit machine. You don't touch a person's child. I hope he is fired. read more

The prices at Value Village have really gone up exorbitantly over the last few years - to the point where unless one finds an unusual "treasure" there selling for a reasonable price - one is almost better off buying new. Even Walmart, Giant Tiger or Dollarama often sell similar items for less. That's known as "greed", considering that most of what VV sells comes from donations, so their cost of goods is "0". It is also likely more than a coincidence that the prices at VV really began to skyrocket around the same time that Goodwill - one of their chief competitors - began their downward financial spiral in the GTA and ultimately folded. Much of the complaining about prices from other VV shoppers is anecdotal and is based on gut feelings and/or some level of comparison shopping involving similar items. I can offer solid proof of VV's arrogance and price gouging, however. A couple of weeks ago, I bought a pair of Ralph Lauren high heels at Talize for $12.99, which seemed like a fair price given the brand and the quality. Not more than a week later, I saw the exact same pair of shoes (same style, colour, condition - even size...what are the odds?!) at a local VV outlet, except that this particular pair had been priced at $20.99 there...$8.00, or almost 40% more expensive! Needless to say, Talize has become my "go-to" thrift store now, and I refuse to shop at VV any longer unless it happens to be on a Tuesday and I qualify for my 30% seniors' discount. Only this will bring their typical asking prices down to a more reasonable level. read more

Big place but man is everything over priced for a thrift store. $25 for a used columbia jacket. $80 for a CK watch. I get that they have brand names items but if you compare prices to retail it would be better to purchase retail prices on sale. read more

Feb 21 2019, the manager on duty around 6 pm failed to do her job in a professional manner. I picked up am item that was clearly marked with a price tag that has not been tampered with, however i was asked to pay almost 50% more of the original asking price by the manager, because the store manager just decided so, and i was also somehow accused of tampering with the packaging or off some form of discrepancy. This is despicable and greedy behaviour displayed by a company that takes in donations. read more
