Thrift Stores in Sanford, FL

“My favorite secondhand store around. Always a great selection of gently used clothes and accessories. The employees have always been very friendly, but I especially appreciate the patience they have when explaining their buying process. I love that I can shop for myself, my teenager and my newborn all in one place. Bonus points because the store always smells good!”

“A nice thrift shop. You get the feel of one side being a boutique set up and nicely laid out, but still have the warehouse side where you get to search for some good finds. For the price in the warehouse you can’t beat it compare to other places. I’ve found some of my favorite pieces of clothing from here”

“Please use your own discretion when deciding to visit this thrift store. Reading the previous negative reviews are mind boggling.

Comparing SuperThrift to Goodwill is asinine at best.

First, let’s address the complaints:

Complaints about the music and prices regarding furniture are a bit much.

You cannot please everyone.

It’s a THRIFT STORE, for goodness’ sake.

And since people love comparisons…

Let’s not ignore Goodwill’s well-documented controversies in 2023, including their former CEO investigated for defrauding $1.4 million from the state, and they're accused of paying their disabled workers 22 cents and hour under special certificates. ?

So yes! ? cue eye roll at some of these reviews.

Now, here’s an honest review from a realistic “shopping connoisseur” with reasonable expectations—especially when it comes to thrift stores.

Pricing & Value
Prices are fair and very reasonable, especially compared to Goodwill.
Disclaimer: (Excluding furniture as I didn't go there for furniture).

Moving on...
Clothing is group-priced by category, not by brand:

Women’s dress shirts: ~$4.99

Women’s formal dresses: ~$6.99

Men’s dress shirts: ~$3.99

Jewelry: ~$2.99

What does that mean?

Whether it’s Tamara Mellon, Gucci, Ralph Lauren, or Forever 21 / Old Navy — it’s the same price.

Unlike Goodwill, where pricing is often inflated. A very used winter hat was being sold at Goodwill for over $6

Honestly, you can sometimes find brand-new items cheaper at Ross or Marshall’s than at Goodwill.

Quality
The quality and condition of items at SuperThrift are noticeably better than Goodwill. Just take a gander by each stores shoe section and let me know ?

Furniture and art are higher quality and better maintained.

Example: a large, sturdy, scratch-free mahogany credenza/armoire priced at $69.

I don’t flip furniture, but if that’s your complaint—maybe try:

Estate sales

Freecycle groups

Dumpster diving on trash day in upscale neighborhoods

Or the newly open Smart Buys in Sanford for other items...

Simply… pivot. Everything has gone up in price.

Sales & Extras
They run color-of-the-week/month discounts.

This week, Green tags were on sale at both stores.

Final Take
Go see it for yourself.

Take the negative reviews with a grain of salt.

If you understand what a thrift store is (and isn’t), SuperThrift is absolutely worth the visit.

P.S. I only snapped a few pic's because I actually wasn't going to write a review...I came to see what time they open lol. Nevertheless, I had tons of quality items for that low price. Had some dry cleaned items stolen from a vehicle and had to replace business attire.”

“Onix was very professional, communicative, and helpful when I purchased a shark vac mop. I saw the post online and he answered all of my questions before I drove over an hour away. He even took a video and shared it with me before I decided to visit the store. This store is neat and organized with great prices. All sales go towards missionary work for orphanages, food, clothing etc. I highly recommend this store and Onix.”

“This place was so interesting inside! It had a great many choices well laid out - it was small and packed full of things but not over-stuffed. We bought a small trinket. They had furniture, paintings, glassware, clothing, and more. Check it out - their stuff is amazing. The owner said that she discounts stuff that is over a few weeks old to always keep the inventory moving. That means it'll always be fresh stuff. A great approach! We will go back.”

“Impressed by the organization and cleanliness of this smaller store. It had plenty to offer- I found a few things. Even the bathroom was nice!
Debbie was gracious and hard working! Appreciated her kindness on Monday when I visited. I have meant to post a review since Monday! Very pleased.”

“This is a nice Goodwill retail shop that competes with the Teen Challenge Thrift next door and another local Goodwill store in Sanford. The inventory here is not as extensive as other Goodwill shops in Central Florida. It’s clean, well organized and has a friendly staff.”
