“"I'd pay any price just to get you I'd work all my life and I will To win you I'd stand naked, stoned, and stabbed I'd call that a bargain, the best I ever had" (The Who) When you find out that a thrift store is running a "35% off" sale to mark their 5th anniversary, well any bargain seeking red blooded American would head on over, just like we just did. The store is larger than the one we customarily visit in Simsbury, so I didn't feel cramped walking around alongside a fair number of fellow shoppers. It's very neat and well organized inside and seemed to have a lot of merchandise. I saw the usual dishes, housewares, women's and men's shoes (including some gorgeous Air Jordans), shirts, blouses, outerwear, pants and jeans, plus sportscoats and men's suits ($25 or so). Some of the more unusual things I saw was an impressive collection of "I Love Lucy" memorabilia, and hiding among the audio CD's was a William Hung CD! He made quite a splash on American Idol 20 years ago, and if you're too young to know who he is, go check him out on YouTube. I bought a long sleeve white dress shirt, a red tie, and my wife bought a long sleeve top. After the 35% discount we paid an obscene $16 for everything. Yes, quite the bargain indeed. PRO TIP Parking is a bit of a toss-up, their lot is micro-sized, so you'll probably end up parking on a side street like we did.”

“This is one of my favorite thrift stores to go to. The layout is very easy to find things. The prices are great. Much less expensive than Goodwill. And they’re giving to a great cause. The turnover is fast so you could go there every week and find something new. The staff are lovely.”

“I went to Goodwill to look for some large picture frames, to frame some prints that I have. While I did find some very nice picture frames that were real wood, they were not the correct measurements that I was looking for. I figured, I would look at the dishes and glasses section since they had a large inventory here. I could not believe what I found here. I found a Tiffany & Co plate. One singular plate. A single Tiffany plate retails for $150. This wasn't even in the glass, with the jewelry and the finer pieces. It was just floating around with the rest of the glassware. It is so beautiful, white, porcelain with lily of the valley flowers engraved all around it. There isn't a single nick anywhere. It was marked at $1.00. I also saw a full set of Mikasa dishes. You just never know what kind of treasure you may find hidden at your Goodwill. There's plenty of books, clothes, and some furniture. They also had a nice coffee table. Some sections can be pretty messy, but when you find a hidden gem, you know it was worth your time.”

“I come here from time to time. Usually find some cool things. Smells a little musty inside but hey.. it's goodwill... not a delicious eatery and so I leave it at 5 stars. Staff is nice and there are usually a fair number of people.. but the store is pretty spacious. Entrance from the street is a little confusion (from the side by the pizza restaurant) ... but parking is plentiful!”

“Savers always has a broad variety of anything you might want or need. The store is well labeled into sections overhead, and each rack has contents and sizes clearly marked.
The dressing rooms have been removed since Covid which makes trying on some clothing a challenge. The store offers an exchange of clothing items within a few weeks, but the exchange needs to be done the same day making sure you buy more. All that said, my overall experience is often fruitful with the clientele and staff always friendly and helpful.”

“I’ve been coming to this goodwill for years and highly recommend. I just lost my phone in there and everyone on the team was SO KIND AND HELPFUL. Such nice people. I really appreciate it!”

“Great store and friendly staff!
One issue I’ve noticed: the price tags are often punched into the front neck collar of shirts and dresses, which leaves a visible hole after removing the tag. It’s a shame to have unnecessary damage on otherwise great clothing. Please consider attaching tags to seams instead—it would make a big difference!”
