Thrift Stores in Cortez, CO

“Nice items and very reasonable prices. The shopkeeper was very nice and let us in during closing and a little after. (Window hours say Open M,T,W,F,Sat 10-4, assume closed Th,Su) $6 dresses, $3 tops! Some linens, scarves, belts and decor stuff; like cute little ships. Found White Stag brand items, also some y2k style shirts/vests. Solid color tees, sweaters and sets. Women's mostly casual to dressy casual, but I also got a gorgeous slinky dress. Men's had some jackets, tees and button ups.”

“This thrift store is definitely a little gem in the heart of Cortez. Right on main Street and easily spotted. It is set up and decorated more like a boutique than a thrift store which really makes you want to mosey around and look at everything. The prices are amazing too. It's clean and smells nice not to mention the lady I spoke to (Karen I believe) was friendly. She even entertained my questions over the phone before I came in when I was inquiring about the size range they had available. Will definitely be coming back here on occasion to check out the stock.”

“Even though this is a smaller store (no furniture), they are well organized, and priced well. The staff is amazing, delivering friendliness and humor. I'm in town for about a month and will be coming back. Thanks for such a great place that serves the community.”

“One of the best thrift stores in the area. Has a large selection of clothes (mostly women's), but also a ton of other items. Despite the huge selection of stuff, the store doesn't feel crowded, though it is a cozy space. It's kept clean and organized (though I'd still HIGHLY recommend wearing a face mask during the winter and fall, as the smaller space can lend to germs spreading quickly). The volunteers (mostly older ladies) are friendly, happy to help, and easy to get to know since the same folks have been volunteering there for years. They put in a ton of time and effort into the store, and the profits go to charity, like the local soup kitchen. An incident that stands out to me is when a shoe-less individual came into the store to wait out a rainstorm, and the manager immediately took him to the back to give him a pair of shoes. The prices are almost always extremely reasonable, and have barely gone up over the years. Quality items are usually under $5, with many costing just cents (a huge difference from thrift stores in more populated areas). It's rare to find anything that feels overpriced, even with big ticket items. People seem to love to donate here, as they always have new unique items for sale behind the counter. This place is a local gem, and the parking lot can be packed during busy hours. My favorite place for retail therapy! I've found countless useful things here and would recommend it to anyone.”

“This is a review for the ReStore, which is located at 6786 Hwy 491/160. They always have extremely useful items at super reasonable, sometimes dirt-cheap prices. Some of the newer or higher quality stuff can be priced a little higher, but it's almost always very reasonable, and they frequently run sales (they're also happy to give discounts!). The regular volunteers are the nicest people, the place always seems lively even if there's hardly anyone customers there, and it's fun to just peruse the store and listen to the conversations. This isn't a huge ReStore like the one in Montrose or other bigger areas, but for the size, the selection is awesome, and they're always getting in new stuff. The volunteers work incredibly hard and do their best to keep the old building tidy and organized, and I think their hard work shows. Don't go expecting a fancy shiny store - this IS still a thrift store after all! They do an immense service not only by getting low priced, quality home improvement items to people who need them, but they also keep those perfectly good items out of the dump. And of course, the proceeds go to Habitat for Humanity, so it's a win-win-win situation. An absolute must-stop if you're working on any kind of home/garden/construction project, or if you need furniture. And if you're a contractor, donate instead of making the extra trip to the dump!”
