Prices are okay. Really liked their book section and unique variety of jewelry. And the cats available for adoption were so cute!

So many great items beautiful jewelry section and some really cool Music Production Electronics so awesome! Not to mention the people there are so nice and every penny they make helps pay the Humane Societies bills up Summers Lane to keep the place running and the animals fat and happy! Definitely a thrift store to keep in mind!

Usually one of my favorite places to go. But there is a disgruntled employee that is allowing their home life to interfere with their work. She was very rude and illegally got me ejected from the building. Even though I had called the police department and made sure I was ok to enter. Nancy has alot of growing up to do. Only putting a negative review of the whole store because when she started harassing me her manager/the owner came from the back and asked me to leave or he was going to call the police. Shouldn't let your workers treat your customers like that.then she ran at me outside the store like she was going to attack me.

As reluctant thrift store shopper - my wife loves thrift stores and we visit as many as "she" can on vacations and while traveling for work - I really wish they were all as cool as this one.Kittens to play with, creative and orderly display of products and a helpful staff willing to share info about the area. I heard locals remark to the staff how much "new" products were displayed.My wife hands me a few items at a time and I buy them, then take them to the car - that helps pass the time.... you get the idea I'm not a shopper, right? On our last visit I made 6 purchases - the prices were right and we were still able to mail what items wouldn't fit in suitcases and the items were still "a good deal."Oh, and the mission of helping animals is always a plus.

Ft Bragg treasure. Always has something fun to find. A treasure hunters dream.Close quarters; those with mobility challenges may find the aisles too tight. I find them tight and I'm a size 16 woman. Still it remains on my must stop every visit list.Benefiting the humane society every dollar helps so I encourage rounding up and leavingyour change as a donation.

Manager is fun upbeat and willing to will and deal. Or as she said " It's tallent to create gold from other peoples trash" Bravo. Nice place as far as thrift stores go. Also profits go to charity so its almost like donating twice when you buy from there.

Overall a good thrift shop, good book selection, toys, and knick knacks. Some curation may be needed as some items are straight up just trash. Parking is an issue here, maybe only 8 cars fit in the lot.

Questionable pricing, watch out for price posted and price charged. Cashier very defensive and rude when questioned about the up change. I have no intention of returning until issue is fixed. According to cashier this has always been and will continue to be. Never have been a fan of bait and switch. Much better places to shop.

There are thrift shops and there are thrift shops and this one's a good one. It's more curiosity than thrift and though the foot print's not "huge" there's lots of interesting bits and baubles filling the space and there's cats!!!! An X girl friend will appreciate that.Anyway, thanks to you, was able to get my laptop up and running after my power cable crapped out and you had the lead I needed. ...would have cost me bookoo bucks at Microsoft but fiddling and finagling a bunch of use pin ball parts was able to get up and running for $1.00.Also picked up several really good smalls.

For books-- this place is exceptional! Better organized and categorized than a library! Nice selection of LP's too.

Clean, well organized, with friendly clerks. Sales go to benefit the animal shelter. Sometimes you can find some surprising treasures.

I’d post a better review if I could actually get into your store instead of wasting time going around the block and finding parking with my trailer only to find out that you don’t turn your lighted ‘open’ sign off... 🙄

Love the mission and the prices are reasonable, but unfortunately most of the items were junk :(

I always stop here when visiting and usually bring donations too. Found a few beautiful things. Missed seeing Joseph this time. Does he still work there?

Love this place, where I spend all my money. I like donating my belongings here, so they can sell make money, help animals, win win.

Fun stuff and friendly folks. I always stop in and browse when I'm on the annual pass through the Mendo-Bragg paradise. At least for me it is.

Great place to find treasures that someone else didn't want ( purchases benefit our local humane society)

Found some great old records and a school pencil sharpener. It wasn't the cleanest store ever, but it sure had neat stuff!

A true thrift store! Too much in the store for the eyes to focus on. Take the right before the circle when going south or you'll miss it.

Love it. Money goes to the shelter and other pet need assitance. Great stuff.
