St Vincent de Paul

What they charge for things is shameful.

I love a good thrift store! There’s nothing like a great bargain, and saving money means you can buy more stuff. This store is huge and has a large amount of product in it. I don’t mind this store, it’s not my favorite, but it’s not bad. I went in randomly with my husband recently when we were on this side of town to eat at Izzy’s Pizza. Had I not been in the area for other things, I wouldn’t make a special trip to this store.
I wandered around the store. The book section is pretty big. Housewares is large as well, but it feels cramped in this area, and it can be hard to really search for anything. The isles are small, so it’s hard to get around. I found a shirt that I really liked, and it had the 25% color tag on it.
The employees seem pretty nice, and are helpful. They are always friendly, never going above and beyond to help or do anything special, but they are OK. I’ve never had a problem with anyone, they just aren’t memorable.
It’s not a store I frequent all too often, just because it is so far away from where I live and work. I only stop here when I am in the area.

Thrift book nirvana! The book section is huge and nicely organized. The staff was super friendly and there’s a little of everything. Know your stuff because some things are way over priced, but there are some great deals as well.

Recently, they decided to stop sorting their clothing and shoes by size, now, they sort by style and color instead. Bad idea! There is a reason pretty much every other store in the universe sorts by size. What customer would want to waste hours sorting through the entire store when only a small percent of it is actually their size?! Who has time for that?!!
Also, they’ve recently decided to raise their prices. Interesting, considering they were already overpriced…
I’m pretty much over St. Vinnie’s until they put things back in size order. It’s just too much trouble to dig through the entire store. WHAT A MESS!

Well organized
