Thrift Stores near Fountain, CO

“Connie has a genuine heart. Her mission is to help others. Prices are reasonable compared to other thrift stores. Collectibles are always valued through the eyes of the holder. If you are looking to find a collectible for $1 so you can make $50, it’s not going to happen. She is smart enough to research items so she makes the profit to use towards others. I see people all the time about this is priced this or that and you can find it someplace else for a better deal. If that is the case you have already found an answer for your issue. If you are complaining about a $50 Barbie she is selling for $200. You were not looking to give to a kid to play with. You are really mad you couldn’t buy for $50 and make the profit. That is being real because Connie and her son are too kind to post it.Anything else in the store I know she would work magic on pricing. She is tough with a beautiful heart.”

“I think it really sucks that they don't have in store dressing rooms any more- ever since Covid when all of the stores had to close them, most of them reopened since.Goodwill, however, decided to permanently leave them closed. They follow that statement with the fact that you can make returns for 7 days following purchase, for store credit only, with original tags&receipt and to the same store location where you made your purchase. Which is in itself one of the worst return policies I've ever heard of. Not to mention if someone happens to have to drive however far or be out of town when they need something, that makes it really inconvenient and time consuming if not impossible. I know if I'm making a purchase I also don't have time to try it on at home, return it within 7 days because I don't have one where I live and don't go by one regularly- if I did then it would basically be like a constant get and return thing anyway, given you're forced into store credit to start the cycle of buying things which you have no way in knowing if will work for you or not. I could go on, but I'll just say there's something about every aspect of their policy that is not consumer friendly and I'm sure it's convenient for them that most people don't go thru all the troubles and just keep the clothing/ other items or get store credit that they never end up using because that's just how it works.Other than that, this specific store is okay sized but strangely doesn't seem to have a good selection in any dept. Just the bare minimum. I won't get started on the pricing that's higher than new items because they don't have the perfect model to go by and there's alot that goes into pricing plus they're the one thrift store that doesn't waste very much because of the so many different things they do like recycling, online sales and outlet stores, etc. So most items get sold at some point.The guy at checkout was really nice though and the store was fairly clean, given that it's full of used items and has alot of traffic. The restrooms were clean and well stocked and they have alot of parking right in front.”

“You never know what you will find but there is always something for everyone! My favorite is the craft section. There is an assortment of supplies for great prices! Highly recommend!”

“Owner is super friendly and I will be back! While a few treasures are placed outside, these do not prepare you for what your eyes behold inside......from old sleds to Coca-Cola items to crystal to silver to statues to globes to vintage dinnerware and lots of in-between. No space is rented, the whole shop is purely a product of a couple's dreams. Make sure you have the time to explore, because you will loose track of it!”

“This was my second trip to the ARC. My grandkids were with me. They both loved the toy department. This was Saturday and the place was buzzing with customers, but everyone I talked to was cheerful and friendly. Children's clothes were in amazing condition and the prices were low as well. I got my grandson about 10 t-shirts with funny pictures or really cute sayings. The check out line wrapped around the inside of the store, but it went past shoes so I kept shopping while waiting to checkout. My daughter was running one of the registers so the line moved really fast. (Bragging just a little.) I have to mention the housewares department. They have so many cute thingsas well as practical items. I even bought an old fashioned flour sifter!”

“Took my friend Wade over there to check it out so he's aware of what they have to offer, it is an awesome place. There is a small little thrift store in there with just about anything you might need, mostly women's clothes, some men's clothes and then miscellaneous stuff. It's got a nice food bank in there if you need it and it's got a lot of supplemental help for senior citizens. Highly recommended for families or individuals in need they also have a van that transports you around town to medical appointments, shopping centers.”

“Honestly this is one of the biggest goodwills I have ever seen. There was so many choices of clothing, toys, kitchen utensils, houseware, and etc. From what I saw the prices were amazing. I mean if you need any clothes, furniture, decorations, ANYTHING this is probably the place to go if you are on a budget. I think it's really nice to have a place likes this with a large selection that is pricing stuff for those who need it. Definitely check this place out :)!”

“God's Pantry has been a life saver for us. Thanks to the staff, especially Carrie. We've hit some really hard times, and they have been there for us. Thank you!Much Love,The Johnson Crew”

“If it weren't for Mr. Kantu and the new pretty morning cashier I don't think I could continue to come here everyday and have as good as a time as I have lately picking through bins!We need more outlets in town!”
