Lots of furniture and art! They had a medium amount of clothes. There were so many good furniture pieces and housewares. I really like this location for home things. I personally didn’t like how they organized their clothes, but I wasn’t looking for clothes so it’s fine.

This location's prices are ridiculous. I don't know why different TS's price the way they do. Because the items are donated, selling mugs for 2.99 instead of .99 is absolutely ridiculous.

Really loved this thrift store! It’s super well organized and the prices are good. Smaller men’s section but I’ll definitely be back.

Used to shop all the time but kids grew up, our needs are less and they got too expensive. Needed a couple tee shirts for work...new at Walmart or Target is cheaper, same with jeans. Staff is generally helpful and friendly. It's hard to keep any kind of order when customers don't put their selections back where they go or pick up the fitting rooms when they are finished. It's as clean as can be expected. We miss the original grocery store but this is a Great location for this Thrifty Shopper.

Prices are good. It's hard to compare prices for thrift stores as some of them price things way to high and some are really cheap. In general, it seems that Thrifty Shopper is priced average but WAY less than the Salvation Army. I come to this location for small items I can use for craft projects. They've recently moved departments around and housewares are now near the front of the store and has more room so less having to move 10 things to get at something at the bottom of a pile. Nice.Update 10/20/22: Not sure what happened but the prices just shot up to ridiculous levels. I saw an inversion table for $100! I can buy one new for $89 that doesn't have busted parts and ripped padding. Lamps for $8 that were busted, chipped and no shades. A busted chipped grandfather clock with missing veneer and missing trim pieces for $80. A junky scratched up 80's curio cabinet for $150! What's going on with the pricing? Most of the pricing is unreasonable now for what it is. They're going to loose their regular treasure hunter people with this.

This location by far is the worst thrift store and definitely the worst Thrifty Shopper, I've ever been in, and I thrift shop all over, in many different places and states.It's damp gloomy dusty. I was about ten feet into the store and begin to feel the air quality change in my breathing. I walked out immediately and will never return. Every employee should get a mold spores test.That building should be knocked down.

I've been here since it was a Thrift Store, even before that it was a grocery store, let's say I've been here for a very long time, I find what I need most of the time, impulse buy if I find something hidden, bought golf clubs still new unused! I need to find golf balls too! Other than that great find, luggage still new with the wrapper, once found a hidden gem in one of the items i bought, you ask about it after paying, you find a lot of that even with the volunteers sorting them out, tapes, money, gift cars with currency still on them non-expired.

Upon walking in, I was initially impressed to see how much inventory they had. However, I almost immediately realized that they have such a large amount of items because the prices are insane. For old, dirty, broken items. This is easily the most expensive Thrifty Shopper I've ever visited, and I've been to almost all of them at least once. I will not be returning.

All the staff were very nice. There's not a lot of Men's stuff, which is disappointing. They reorganized the whole store, which makes it a bit harder to navigate, though it's okay. All the prices are very low, and I always manage to find something I enjoy here.Update July 2022:There is now more men's clothing! It's always super fun to see what I'll get!

If you love Thrifty Shopper, then come to this location. It has a great selection of used items. Clothing, furniture, odds and ends. You'll definitely find something here. Come take a look & see what you find. One man's trash is another man's treasure. Recommended

I liked the items in this place specifically, the dishes, and stationary. The prices are hard to rate because some things were really affordable and then some were pricey or too expensive. For example, some items had orginal price tags showing the store priced it above that. However, the staff was really nice and the dressing rooms were actually pretty clean.

It was the first time I've shopped there and there was 5 customer service representative on the sales floor. Was able to purchase 5 tops and 2 jeans for under $ 25. It was worth my time to stop today.

This used to be one of the nicest thrift shops around. It is now very dirty and extremely disorganized. Prices are out of touch with some items being priced above brand new retail.

If I’m shopping at a thrift store, this is always my go to. everything is arranged by size which is always a bonus. Sometimes they don’t have a size but because they run on donations, it makes sense. Never had a bad experience here. Always leave with more clothes and books than I should.

ONLY GIVING ONE STAR BECAUSE I CAN'T SELECT ZERO.. tried to do an exchange at this store and before I could even finish my sentence, the most unpleasant employee I have ever encoutered immediately cut me off and denied letting me do it without letting me explain what the problem was and then when I asked why they wouldn't do it she just shook her head and said they won't. I have over 7 years worth of customer service experience and it is COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE to treat your customers with so much disrespect and such a sh*tty attitude. Absolutely not going to this location ever again.

Great for finding just about anything you need at a much reduced price.

Could not shop comfortably. The girls shopping in this store should be required a dress code at the door. Children should not be subject to women who wear clothing that's way to revealing. I was an avid shopper, I will never come back after the experience I had today. Get some scruples ladies, not everyone wants to see your butt cheeks and junk! Very unprofessional

Overall, this is a big clean store with a good selection of clothes, books, housewares and furniture. My only complaint is that pricing is higher than a lot of other thrift stores in the area. It does have a better selection, and often higher end goods due to its proximity to Fayetteville and manlius, however the prices are very inconsistant and could be more competitive.

Always love it here. Good and friendly staff and volunteers. Lots of different things to find. A treasure trove of goodies. Movies and cds always in good working order as well.

I bought two outfits and a bathing suit for $12. It's a thrift store so it takes some patience to find nice items.

By far the worst thrift store in Central New York. I go to all the thrift shops in the Syracuse and surrounding areas and this is the worst.Update: Nothing has changed! 2/19/2023

Great finds but you have to go on odd days and times. They offer military discount and the 50% sale once Saturday during the months
