Picture being inside someone's closet and looking at hits and misses. Sometimes there are treasures and sometimes there are duds. You could find a new item with the tags still on or a frayed handbag. I have a found collectible Longaberger baskets or my favorite Vera Bradley handbags. I have found awesome Halloween costumes and even a $4 ball gown I wore on a cruise. There are 2 thrift stores in the same building. Unique thrift is on the right side. Both stores are considered separate entities. If you shop at both stores (which I suggest) you will need to check your bags at a free, safe storage area in between both stores. Keep your claim ticket. There isn't much difference between the two stores. Both have bathrooms and dressing rooms. I prefer the dressing rooms at Value Village, on the left side. The items used to be cheaper. There are still great bargains but I don't understand why the locations marked up items $1 - $7 and higher, considering everything is donated. Handbags range from $3.99 to $9.99. When management has the notion that a bag is valuable, the prices range from $14.99 to $19.99. The more expensive items are kept behind the counter, near the front of the store. I usually don't look at those items. If I am going to look near the front areas, I will glance at the costume jewelry and watches in glass display areas. I have found pretty items or black tie events, as well as hilarious pieces for halloween. I have found new polo and sports shirts for hubby. Not all of the locations have dressing rooms. A bargain is only a bargain, if it fits. All items are 25% off each Monday. On Thursday, your free VIP card will get you 25% off.
