Clothing prices are competitive with the larger Thrift Stores. Lots of collectibles, good prices on household items. Very well organized store, and even a mini food pantry for the needy.

A Great place to vollenteer some community service hours help those in need. Donation of cash, tools, retail supplies and more are appreciated here. Lots of riding boots in stock now!

I love this store! Everyone is super nice and helpful. The store is clean, neat and orderly. They have great sales every week and all the proceeds go to help the community. It's also at a great location for those who do not have transportation and live in town. Overall hands down this is my favorite store.

helpful? no. these people are rude, nasty, ignorant, and gaslight people. for so called "Christians" who are supposed to be helping the people in NEED and that need the help, you aren't doing what you say you do. you guys are disgusting and need to just close down your store. be more like the Salvation Army because right now, no one should go to these people for help. that or they need new employees.

The thrift store has forgotten what they are all about. It should be helping the community. Charging $50 for a used beat up wheelchair is not doing it. Everything in the store has increased 5 fold in price in the store. For donated goods, this is criminal. Not even a good selection anymore. Will not patronage anymore

This place use to be Fantastic. You could find stuff there used, for Pennies on the Dollar.Now however, the store thinks they are Selling Rare Artifacts or something. You can physically go Buy BRAND NEW for far LESS.When I mean FAR LESS, I MEAN FAR LESS. You will honestly walk around looking at the Prices and say to yourself," Are they smoking @#$!% ROCK here when they make their Prices?"Anyway, the best part of why I choose not to visit this store anymore is this. They are getting this stuff for FREE from people donating it to HELP others out. Yet this store chooses to jack the prices up to the point where this store is ripping people off, whom do not know better.EXAMPLE: USED B&D Toaster $20.00 SVDPNEW B&D Toaster $12.95 WAL-MART = / ?

The staff that works here are very generous. They will help you find what you need and even give discounted prices on special days. Great place to volunteer and shop!

SVDP thrift store has the best prices of any thrift store around. The knick knacks, dishes and such are alway clean and well arranged. I don't often shop for clothing but my friends do and are always pleased.

This is your typical Salvation Army / Goodwill store. Mostly dated items from their clothing to the furniture to the equipment for sale.I did find it odd but they were not willing to sell piece of furniture that I offered to buy. they had an armoire there that was not showcasing a single piece of jewelry there were just some items sitting on top of it I offered to buy the armoire and they said no that it wasn't for sale. I'm sure there was an important reason why they couldn't sell it.

I thought thrift stores were to help people that need help getting back on their feet. Prices at times are out rageest.

They need organization. I don't know who is running that place, but it is a mess. They have all of that room and it is worse than the old location.

The stuff is donated, they have no reason to over price the items like they do! It is a second hand store. Some stuff I can buy cheaper BRAND NEW at Walmart!

I thought it was to help poor people. But they act like their stuff that was give to them to sell is gold or something. Omg. Prices r rediciolous for used

They price stuff like they are a high price department store. What happened to pricing for the low income shopper.
