“This is my favorite thrift store of all time. Every time I think of going to Ross, Marshalls, or buying off of Amazon either for myself or my kids I come here first and usually leave with more than I needed. If you're thinking of buying toys, COME HERE FIRST! Also they have a little play area for your toddler so you can finally shop in peace! Very kid friendly ?”

“This place is a hidden gem! ? They have a good variety of items for a very reasonable price. They have clothes, home decor, toys, wall art, kitchen items, etc. It's always steadily stocked too. There's never too many or too little items out, which makes it easy and enjoyable to browse. I always find a treasure or two (or more) whenever I go. Definitely worth a visit if you're in the area.”
“This has been my go to thrift store for a long time. The workers are amazing, helpful, and nice. The prices can be pricy but there is always a sale when you're looking for good quality items. 10/10 store, love ReRuns!”

“A small and cute thrift store. Has a little bit of everything for everyone but wish there were more children’s clothes. There are a lot of China sets, some furniture and more women's clothing. The staff is friendly. Pricing is set except for “premium brands” which are priced individually.”

“Love The work they do. Helping others in need without expecting anything back. I have to say that Kindness Initiative and G'Mach are the most generous organizations. I wish I could donate some money to help other members in need as They Are Wonderful. I cannot say more.
THANK YOU.❣️??❤️”

“One of the best thrift stores in North County. Robert, Diane, Michael, Freddie & Chris are always helpful and make me feel welcome. Prices are fair. Thanks a lot, CRC! Highly recommend~”
“This is one of those Goodwill stores that's mostly a bookstore. They do sell some other items like clothes, accessories, and knick knacks, but just a few select items and priced higher. Book selection is decent and well organized.”

“The best place to come for shopping for everthing, at list once a week. location is next to Trader's Joes in oceanside which make it very easy to stop by before shopping.The store open 7 days a week.”
“They always have SUCH a great selection in clothing, housewares and so much more. The boutique has GREAT prices on more designer items and I always walk out with such a bagful. Prices are excellent. A must visit!”
“We've been going here sporadically over a decade. They have really good options for thrifting, for all ages and sizes. The operating hours vary but it's definitely worth looking into.”
“This is a nice thrift store. There are a lot of upscale items, some with tags still on. The prices are a little high, but that's to be expected in Del Mar. They are still fair for what you're getting. The selection is best for smaller women's sizes. The staff is friendly. The lot is a paid lot, but you can getting an hour parking tag inside the shop.”

“Clean, well organized Goodwill with a nice layout. The items here are in better condition than I normally see in a Goodwill. There's also a decent selection of movies and video games, too. If I didn't know any better, I'd think this was a Marshall's rather than a Goodwill!”

“Always pay it forward.
This store has a great staff. They are friendly and welcoming.
The place is clean and very organized.
Sometimes you'll find a needle in the haystack. Just need to be patient.
The donation area is a bit tight and does get busy.”

“This review is only for the donation center, as I did not go inside of the store. How cool to have a drive - thru donation center! You pull up and a person comes with a large cart to collect all of your items you want to donate! It was fast and such an easy process! I was in and out in seconds! They also seem to take almost everything. If you don't have a lot of time to spare this drive thru donation center is the way to go!”

“What a fantastic Goodwill Outlet! When I travel for work I love visiting the outlets in the area, and this one did not disappoint. The best part are the employees. They are so nice and very helpful.
You definitely want to get there early to secure parking, as it gets full quickly.
There is no need to get in line for entrance. About 10 minutes before opening they pass out raffle tickets to everyone. At opening, they draw the tickets and that's the order you are let in.
If you are one of the first in, head left, grab a cart and go into that room by the carts with big boxes and bins. Try to secure a large tall plastic bin or large cardboard box because the first customers to get to those can dig through, while no one else is allowed until they're done. They toss their unwanted items into a shallower/lower bin that anyone can go through, though really only one, max two people can fit to look through.
If you love spending a few hours looking for treasures, you'll absolutely find them here. This is a great store and I can't wait to return.”
“The easiest resale/second hand store to shop! I love ❤️ Recommend to all my girlies. Top brand names, great prices, and all organized by size, style or brand name.”

“Beautiful shop, but too pricey for me. Used puzzles at $5.00. No guarantee they are complete. I'd rather buy new with a guarantee at that price. They did have great puzzles. They are obviously not flying off the shelves at that price point.”

“The prices have gotten out of control! These items are donated, correct? With prices so high, no one buys it and then the items just sit there forever because they are not properly priced to move! It’s being ran more like an antique store or a consignment shop? I used to go in at least once a week or so! However , I don’t go but maybe once a month or every other month, because not much has changed when I go in, lots of the same stuff is still there at the same price! Maybe have sales on the things that have been there for awhile? You’ll make some money at least and the stuff will move out making room for the new stuff! The ladies there are nice though!”
“Went on a Saturday around 3, not busy at all. It might’ve been because it was so hot that day but they had decent enough AC. Super well organized and good prices!”
“I love the selection at Plato's Closet Escondido. They have a great variety of both men’s and women’s clothing and it feels like a true used clothing outlet. The racks are constantly refreshed so I always find something new and affordable. Friendly staff and great prices make it my go‑to thrift store. Excited to return for my next shopping trip.”
“Nice thrift store
Has a bargain section in the back $5 items
But the largest selection of furniture and clothing is a little pricier but for a good cause
And they have a lot of cute stuff”
