“Fantastic experience! Super friendly staff that delivered and set up the couch and table I purchased close to closing time. Will definitely be shopping here in the future for more furniture as well as their other fairly-priced items!”
“I bought a VLog Kit from the Resale Source because I’ve always wanted a ring light and it was a really good deal, way less expensive than other ones I’ve seen. It works awesome and I have not stopped using it since I received it! It’s the perfect size for your desk and I use it on all my work Zoom meetings. It makes such a huge difference to the picture quality! There are three different light settings that you can play around with to find what works best for you. I swear it makes you look younger too! I absolutely love it. Highly recommend this product and The Resale Source.”

“Gonzalo and Michelle are so friendly and wonderful! I love how organized the store is, and how there are many items with the color tag of the week, rather than other stores where I see them take off the tags and u can’t even find any sales on the racks. I love it here, definitely my favorite Salvation Army in San Diego!”
“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.”
“I used to live in the apartment complex directly next to Home Start. The first time I noticed this store was Halloween 2018, a few hrs. before a last minute puppy Halloween party.
Not only did I find the CUTEST mermaid costume I’ve ever seen… but it was a complete set & not just random pieces of clothing someone decided to donate last minute vs. throw away.
Amongst that I found a gigantic stack of my favorite designer jeans— not only in my size, but in a plethora of styles (not just straight leg)…. Oh, & I usually pay about $200 retail for these jeans but every single pair i purchased that day & so on, we’re $4.
The women working here are so amazing & they really care & look out for their clients best interests.
I did unfortunately move but I always come back once a month for bag day! ?”
“I come here all the time and I always find something cute! I love stopping by and finding a new piece of clothes, something kitschy or something I’ve been needing.”

“Great place can find some grails here for sure and at amazing prices like amazing if you go to Buffalo exchange down the street you will be paying 13 dollars more for the same shirt. But definitely a lot of stuff you have to look through before you find the heat but if you look hard enough you can find some awesome pieces.
(Im mostly interested in clothes and fashion so in this review im talking about their clothing selection idk about furniture and other stuff but it also seems very good)”

“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.❣️??❤️”
“Super small not much in there. If you are looking to find a hidden gem location, it’s definitely hidden but this would not really be the spot. & it really was hard to spot, my Uber & I didn’t see it at first & drove around the parking lot looking at the larger stores. It’s towards the center of the wing on the right side, behind Chase bank. The retail part of of the store has to be the smallest of all gw stores. There’s not much home decor, no furniture,no lamps, minimal kitchen ware not really the location to go to if you think you are going to have a day of great finds and it’s going to be your new favorite location. Maybe if your a middle aged lady that loves candle holders & distressed jeans they had a few cute small Knick knacks I found a smaller version of my Hawaiian tiki “god of money” figure everyone gets there & my large one broke so I was happy to replace that & pretend I find some rare decor. Then I normally don’t care for the clothes much & i don’t even wear jeans the last ten years but I have been thinking about buying a pair lately & they had a very nice looking, organized woman’s Jean section. Where I had spotted a pair of rag & bone jeans, so I stared to take a look through them. I ended up trying on a few pairs, then ended up walking away with a new pair of re/done jeans, that fit me perfectly, which they had 2 pairs of in my size, slightly different, but I only bought 1& left the others. Both brands mentioned retail at $286 & up! So I had to check the Jean shorts display after that & I found a pair of Paige jean shorts in my size & the woman working held my bag (since I got there, bc I asked) & let try them on in the bathroom since there’s no dressing room but I didn’t mind it was big n clean in there. So $30 spent got me about $400+in goods. I’d say it was definitely worth having Uber drop me off there while I had my car repaired. And worth a visit if you ever end up in Tierra Santa / but side note don’t buy the shoes they’ve been selling Nikes at double the cost my friends roomate donated several pairs he got for about $70 that he wore too & they somehow sold them for $150 & were gone in a day. Idk why or how they can do that or ppl can be that dumb. But that’s not goodwill to price anything in there at nearly $100. I’d love to know who paid that for used Nikes . Please check out my offer up & fbmp! lol”

“Above and beyond! Better stuff and prices then the Salvation Army's store down the street. I made a purchase of a large item and without me asking for anything, they took care and helped me regarding that item. Special shout-out to the lady and the man who took the extra steps above their job, thanx!!!”
“This thrift store is probably one of the most organized thrift stores that you will come across. The items that they carry are in good quality, and they are reasonably priced. Staff is really friendly as well.
However, the stickers that they place on their items like books and pictures, do not peel off easily. It leaves, residue and remnants of the sticker that require cleaning and scraping off, which can be damaging to the item in general.”
“A great thrift store for all sports fans. Lots of vintage attire. We bought a vintage Michigan State blue sweatshirt. Great place if you looking for unique gift for sports person in your life.”
“One of the best thrift store I’ve been in SD. You’ll find here everything you need from at the best value prices. Staff is very friendly and kind and they offer various discounts. Go check it out!”

My Daughter has been taking ukulele lessons here and loves it.
Highly recommend popping in if you’re in the area, they host live music events supporting local musicians and have some pretty awesome finds as part of the thrift store as well! Super cool spot in OB.”
“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.”
“I’ve been buying from Cherry Picked Thrift before she opened her shop. I’ve always had the best experiences and she has the cutest shop with so many cute finds. She’s always been so responsive and kind and willing to hold things for me that I saw that I liked before purchasing!”
“The most lovely ladies working here! I was visiting from New York and popped in and was really impressed by their collection of vintage jewelry! I may have bought half the collection. They also have a nice selection of blazers and sweaters as well as home decor. Everything is so organized and clean! They showed me the back room where processing and cleaning takes place and it is very meticulous with a lot of work and love poured into what they do. Will definitely be back!”
“I see some negative reviews here about the prices. That wasn't my experience at all. I got a brand new shirt and a very gently used coat for $30 total. Needed something cheap and quick for one day for a wedding. I'll donate it right back before I leave town..”
“For the clinic, the service is good. The guard is excellent. I am talking about the guy who watches my bike.For the meals, organized, dog table helps save time. Guards overzealous.”

“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!”
“Great place with exquisite finds! Even though they're busy rearranging the store the staff are super friendly and helpful. Wonderful place to find dragon antiques!”
“Great staff!!! Selection is as good as what people donate, so donate! Got a $5 off coupon since I had some stuff to donate, and found a $50 pair of jeans for $4 and in great shape. Do the math!”
“So delighted to meet these young entrepreneurs and find their darling little thrift store. I’ve found a little treasure each time I’ve gone in and their prices are incredibly low. The owners are what this world needs, more joy, kindness and love for all. If you need a friendly face to brighten your day and looking for something to adorn your shelves, please go visit and support them!”
“The perfect thrift store experience. There are so many amazing vintage items, the owner is extremely friendly and fair, and there's a store cat !!! I'm absolutely coming back. A hidden gem of a place. :)”
“By far the coolest clothing store/art gallery I’ve ever been in. I got to support local artists by purchasing one of a kind sweatshirts. The art was incredible. Wasani was super kind. I HIGHLY recommend checking it out. 10/10”
