Salvation Army

I like this store the only thing that bothered me once is they forgot to give me a bag when I came back the next day with the receipt they told me I had no way to prove it, if I was in there shoes I would have looked at the fact I had spent $ 100 that day and was only asking about a 5 $ CD case and would have gave store credit to make me happy .not insinuate that I’m lying about 5 $ on a $ 100 sale also I was told the chair I got was 35 $ at check out said 60 so we agreed on 45. But that was a one trip bad time most of the time they are good one trip they had all kids clothes for a $ 1 so I got about 65 $ worth I realized I lost my wallet and didn’t make it back till the next day they had my stuff put back but let me get what I could find at still $ 1 that was very nice. So I would recommend them for the most part OK my up date I wrote my review as I waited for them to open to my surprise they did a full remodel it looks so nice a must see it doesn’t even look like a use store

I don’t come here very often… it’s mostly women’s clothes with some furniture and generic glassware/​household items. They don’t have much in the way of kid’s toys, which I like, and don’t have much in the way of fancy dresses. Additionally, I find their prices to be higher than I’d like to pay for the quality I’m getting.
Don’t get me wrong, I’ve had some real finds here, but they’re so few and far between that this isn’t my go-​to so I tend to come here 1. when I’m horribly bored 2. when I need something specific and I’ve tried everywhere else.
Staff is polite and professional. I very much appreciate that they have a dressing room or two to try on clothes. This is rare in thrift stores around here.

We took a couple boxes of clothes to donate today. I was dumbfounded by the rude attitude of Justin who was taking donations. He seemed angry at us for bothering him. I’ll take the next donations somewhere else.

I scored a Vera Bradley wallet for $ 3.99 and a leather Alicia Klein wallet that I’ve seen for $ 95 for $ 3.99 that I love!
The clerks are friendly.
The store was clean and well organized.
The parking was convenient.

Easy place to drop off donations!

This store is full of great bargains. There is always a full selection of clothes & very nice furniture. The store has sales regularly– which make the bargains even better! It’s very organized & ran professionally. All the employees have great attitudes, they are friendly and helpful. Stop in and see what treasures you can find.

Prices are great ! And the whole staff is always friendly. Never had a bad experience and walk out a happy customer every time !

This Salvation Army location has a great selection of furniture. I recently visited, looking for a couch that would fit my client’s lobby. There had to be at least 12 different pieces to choose from and they were all in great condition (I didnt notice any stains or heavy wear on any of them). Although I was there for a couch, I couldnt help but notice the even bigger selection of dressers and dining tables. I would guess that 50% of the store is home/​office furnishings, 40% clothing, 10% miscellaneous.
Eventually, I found an 8 foot sofa that I loved, priced at $ 90. It happened to be the last Friday of the month, where everything in the store is 50% off. I was very pleased to get a couch, in like new condition, for $ 45.
This thrift store is in the epicenter of a quasi, upper class community so you can expect to find donated gems on any given day.

The staff is super friendly and they are willing to haggle on prices that seem high. Clean store and nice merchandise. The location is easy to get to.

I was really excited about going to this location after reading the amazing reviews. Sadly, I don’t know if I’ll make the trip out there after the horrendous customer service I just received over the phone. I called to ask about potential upcoming sales that this location might have toward their clothing, and the woman who answered immediately tried to get off the phone with me as soon as possible. She quickly uttered the sales going on for this particular day (military and senior discounts, which don’t apply to me), and when I asked her about the rest of the week, she said that I could come in and pick up a calender of upcoming sales. Fair enough, but I don’t live close to this location, so I wanted to know about the sales so I would know which day to drive out there. I explained this to her, and once again asked for her to inform me of any upcoming clothing sales. She said «I don’t know. We are short-​staffed, and I don’t have time to check.» I’ve worked in customer service for many years, so I know that it can be difficult to go out of your way for one customer when you’re short-​staffed. However, the customer comes first, and if a potential one asks you for something, you do it, and without attitude. She had plenty of attitude, and when I told her I wasn’t pleased with my customer service experience, she sarcastically said «sorry» and hung up on me. I would like to go in and check out this location’s selection, but I have no way of knowing when I should do so because I still know nothing about the sales. It’s a real shame, because I had such high hopes for this location.

I’m honestly shocked by the mediocre/​3 star reviews of this place. I live in L.A. and this is by far the best thrift store I’ve been to in SoCal. The lady and I were in the area on a day off and were at this location for almost 3 hours. THIS PLACE is the reason I love thrift store shopping! Wifey absolutely abhors shopping yet, there she was, in all her full-​cart glory. I think we spent a total of around $ 80. I got a Carthartt’s cotton button up for $ 5, Blackhawk! wicking zip vest for $ 6, a dope new tie for $ 2 and a seemingly brand-​new Timbuk2 laptop/​messenger bag for $ 5. That’s not including the 25% off each item! The rich folks up there love giving their shit away! Not to mention it’s good shit. Wifey came home with at least 4 tops, 2 skirts, Dockers work slacks for around $ 8 (typically $ 45 off the rack at any nearby malls) and miscellaneous other stuff. As a bonus, they were cool with us bringing our dog into the store (it helps that she’s fecking adorable). We’ll definitely be coming back here when we’re in the area.
P. S. I believe it’s every Tuesday that everything is 50% off. Don’t quote me on that though, that might just be clothing. But still…

Love this location! They constantly are re-​stocking & keeping everything organized! Occasionally they have clothing 10 items for $ 10! Can’t beat that!
I always find amazing designer items at amazing prices here. (Elliot lucca, Michael Kors, Free People…)
I come in at least 3 times a month to see what hidden goodies I can find! I never leave empty handed.
The staff here are all super friendly! They love seeing their customers happy! Love everyone here.
(-1 star bc it’s a bit dirty. This is an older store, too.)

I stop by just to look around every time I go to Smart and Final (same parking lot) or if I drop stuff off.
Staff is not the most out going as you would expect. But they do have a pretty good selection of clothing and furniture. They also, along the wall, have an assortment of glasses, plates, pans and other various kitchen items. I did buy a great stove top dutch oven for $ 10 once! So now I stop by every so often to see what other hidden treasures I can find :)
I do think the Goodwill Store in Thousand Oaks has a better selection of items though.

Never been in the store, but the people that you drop your donations off to are certainly rude.

Terrible
Scarce assortment. One decent item a collectible $ 10. I could buy it on Ebay for that, and it wasn’t even in very good condition. Clothes looked extremely tattered.

This shop is 50% women’s clothing. Their sales are quite good though. I’m not at all impressed with their housewares (SO small), shoes, or books (books are kinda pricey for a thrift store). It’s worth a stop if you’re in the area but I’ve been to many better Salvation Army stores. Staff is nice and there’s a big parking lot.

When compared to the Goodwills in Ventura county this Salvation Army is a little more on the grungier side. That being said the clothing racks are filled with great gems! My friend was able to find a hideous sweater for our ugly sweater holiday party for only $ 3 (which helped him win the ugliest sweater contest hands down).
The shoe selection is sparse and the store layout is a bit odd. The store was well organized though and very spacious. This is a good thing considering its a thrift store. I’m all for a good dig every now and then but I prefer not to if possible. The furniture selection was decent and priced to sell.
I’ll have add this store to my list of thrift shops I stop by. Prices seem to be fair and the items are decent quality. Keep in mind that this place is not open on Sundays. Kind of a bummer because that’s my normal day to shop.

I have to disagree with the other reviewers, this is one of the best thrift stores I’ve been to…
I go every week and they consistently have a freshly rotated selection of clothes (See my other thrift store reviews.) Their selection of furniture is huge! My only complaint is that they don’t have enough sale days. But really if you are looking for good clothes, this is the best place to go.

A friend bought an antique trunk here yesterday.
The tag said «Trunk and Costumes.»
When the trunk was purchased, an employee took all the costumes out – said: «we didn’t know those were in there» and that she couldn’t have them, they would be priced separately. Ok, my friend was pissed but still wanted to buy them and was told to come back the next day when they would be priced. She told me about the clothes and we were excited to get them.
Called the next morning and they had been sent to Canoga Park and no one knew where they were. WTF?
Nice job guys.

Rude, rude, rude.
I tried to ask an employee a question, he looked straight at me, then continued walking away into the Employees Only area without acknowledging or even slowing down. Really???
