Been waiting to stop here and was so glad I did. I didn't bring my Sun Tea jar and walked in and there it was... Another item I have been wanting to fins to match my Grandma's pot rest was a spoon rest and I found.. So excited.. Great place with lots of items.

The workers at the checkout counter have always been super friendly and helpful. The workers in the back who accept donations are generally very rude and unfriendly. The last few times we have been there, we have noticed the shelves are pretty bare. If people are not donating the way they used to - it is because of those employees. We absolutely will not be bringing any donations there ever again because of them. Why would you treat people poorly when they are giving you free items for your store?

Had about a 30 mile drive, so I asked the lady if she had a specific mens suit size and she said she didn't have time to look!

I've been here a few times. As much as I like only paying a quarter for most items, I really feel they should charge more for new, or newer items. That would be more money for their cause. The first time I got brand new Capris expecting them to be at least $5 and I was shocked when she said a quarter. I just bought the same pair at a store on sale for $25. Great deals for sure, just don't know how they raise enough money for all they do.

The GOOD:Fish as a buisness is a wonderful place. I had hours of volunteer days there, they give back to the community.I really enjoyed it. I still visit daily if possible.THE BAD: from the inside, most workers "take first dibs". 100%true.There are a few elderly ladies that are very rude. One I had to report. Today she came at me again about a food basket. Next I will go to the township.Volunteer or not, if you cannot exercise decent customer skills then don't volunteer in customer service positions. Ya cranky Ole bat!For the record, they do have quite a few amazing souls volunteering thier time daily. That is lovely to see.

Wow!!! so happy I finally stopped in. I collect 80's dishes and I hit the jackpot and their prices can't be beat. When he told me my total I didn't feel like that was enough so I donated a little extra. Definitely will be returning. I saw more things I wanted but I though my total would be more and it was almost closing time so I didn't want to run back.

FISH is a great place that is staffed by church volunteers in Hale. Prices are very affordable, with profits that go back into the community through holiday food, baby needs, etc. It's a great place to volunteer.Really wish that they were open on Fridays though!10/8/22: Visited FISH today & found many good bargains! This is such a good non-profit group comprised of many good volunteers in Hale.

This is my favorite store of all time!! I recommend it to all of my friends and anyone who loves to shop. I suggest that when you shop not to change your mind and put stuff back. The prices are so cheap that you would regret it immensely if you did! We LOVEEšŸ˜šŸ˜šŸ˜ The Fish Store!

Really disappointed with my recent experience here. Brought a car load of items to donate & 2 boxes of my moms keepsakes were accidentally donated as well. They are moving & the boxes got mixed up. I contacted FISH that evening & my mom went to the store the very next morning & could not find ONE single item. They won’t let us check unpacked items to see if her boxes are there. Have tried messaging & emailing, everyone is extremely unhelpful. Someone knows where this stuff went or could at least try to have a little compassion with the situation, but none. These items mean a lot to my mom & it’s really sad how it’s being handled. I’ve honestly been really shocked with the lack of kindness by anyone involved, especially given it’s a non-profit. As sad as it is to lose these special items it feels even worse to see the response from fish volunteers. We dropped the items at noon Tuesday, the store closed at 4 pm. She was back when doors opened at 10 am Wednesday— every single item from her 2 specific boxes happened to sell in 4 hours Tuesday? Or were they never put out & ā€œpurchasedā€ by a volunteer? I’ve tried reaching out thru every channel I can and am met with resistance & attitude each step. The only last thing I could do is share a review so others know. Based on my experience it’s my belief that the volunteers cherry pick items off the top. There’s no way both boxes were put out & sold in that time. That’s not fair to the community that people are donating to. We’d still love & appreciate any of these sentimental items back if any volunteers have any info and want to do the right thing.

FISH is a 501C3 Thrift store, all money brought in by sales goes to help the the needs of families in the community.Great finds of all sorts, and the rock bottom pricing makes Fish Thrift Store a must to go shop at!!!
