The Treasure Chest is a thrift store located in downtown Sarasota, operated by Safe Place and Rape Crisis Center, Inc. (SPARCC). It offers clothing, jewelry, art, antiques, and furniture, with most items coming from community donations and consignments. All profits support SPARCC’s mission to help survivors of domestic and sexual violence and promote a violence-free community through education and awareness. The store is clean, organized, and staffed by friendly staff who are helpful. Visitors have found good brands of clothes and jewelry, and enjoy supporting a cause that makes a difference. While they do not accept large furniture, donations like phones are appreciated. The Treasure Chest is a highly recommended place to shop and donate, especially after the Saturday farmer's market.
What a nice thrift store. Actually has higher end clothing and donations. Prices did seem high for some things but if you come on certain days they have a decent sale and up to 75% off so we got a great bargain on some good clothes.

Some great deals, some ok deals. Still an excellent place to spend your money while supporting critical work. I will definitely return.
