“Great thrift/resale store. A little bit of everything. Antiques, furniture, lamps, household goods, adult cloths, children's clothes and toys, craft supplies and fabric, etc..... the best part of the shop is how wonderful the staff are, kind and helpful, they go out of the way to assist you. The best part is all proceeds go to adults with intellectual and physical disabilities, definitely I cause that I can support. Stars is absolutely worth checking out because no matter what you're looking for you're sure to find some some amazing treasures.”
“We love this store! I have bought everything from outdoor furniture to paintings and it’s always so clean, organized and inviting.
The staff is always kind and helpful.”
“I donate often and this is my go to place to drop off donation now. The staff who receive donations are always polite and courteous. The way they present items for resale, it is obvious how much care and heart they put into it. It looks like a well kept store.”
“This is a good flea market with friendly vendors and staff, tasty food and beverage and items sold at very low prices. The only thing that was off was when I went (on a Friday) more than half the vendors were not there and their spaces were closed. Besides that this is a good flea market though.”
“Love this cute resale store, and it's shopping with a purpose because of its mission to serve and help those around the world. So, this is my go-to place to donate, and I've found some great clothing, shoes, and purses there. There's always a sale! Just make sure and check the days and hours when they are open.”
“Love this store, the best thrift store in town. The staff are very nice and welcoming. Amazing prices and great treasures. They are also very good about keep the store clean and organized. Anyone who doesn’t come here is missing out.”
“I was surprised at how nice the furniture selection was! Not many small items for home dec, but lots of other things - tools, drawer pulls, glassware, area rugs, patio sets, lighting, sinks, bathtubs. Some of the pieces were over priced IMO (old dressers for $150 that I wouldn't pay more than $30-50), but it's all for a good cause. Great place for project pieces and DIY renovations. Very nice staff. Plenty of parking. Will definitely be back regularly just to browse and see what's new!”
“I always have a wonderful time donating and shopping at this location, they have a great staff member by the name of Nicole, she is always courteous, respectful and demonstrates exceptional professionalism to you as a customer. I appreciate that very much, besides the prices are reasonable and as a rewards member I am able to get extra discounts sent to my email address. Great store and staff. Shout out to Nicole for exceptional professionalism!”
“I’m not really into resale stores, but this one has got me hooked! Not only do they do a great job but the proceeds go to St. Vincent de Paul which is wonderful! I spend as much as I donate here lol
Highly recommend. You can find some QUALITY items, for a fraction of the price. I never leave empty handed. Love! Love! Love!”
“I recently visited Goodwill on Army Trail Rd in Bloomingdale, and had a great experience. The store offers excellent customer service, fair prices, and an impressive variety of clothing and home accessories. Everything was well organized, making it easy to browse and find hidden treasures. Definitely a great place to shop while supporting a good cause!”
“today i had the pleasure to visit Something Else Resale! A LOVELY family owns it & they make all of their own cement statues & fountains. i was absolutely blown away! the prices were incredible. i have nothing but absolutely amazing things to say & can’t wait to buy xmas gifts for my family here. 10/10!”
“Wonderful little shop with amazing prices and even better employees! Thank you so much to the three or four employees who were such a great help on Tuesday. I love the Fitz and Floyd decor, and already put it all out for Christmas. St. Vincent de Paul is such a wonderful organization! Consider donating or purchasing from them to support a good cause!

“This is my daily drivin store of all time along with the goodwill rolling meadows location
I got great deals on literally Electronics and Video games
Update: even if the store closed for public I can still buy PC and mobile games digitally
Update 2: 10 years later I'm so cherished that this location is still going strong and well due to strong donations support and great atmosphere”
“THANK YOU to the staff member who found and returned my bag that I lost, with not a single item missing or out of place!!! I didn't catch their name but they had a black ponytail and an ID card on their belt. My mom's birthday was literally the next day, I couldn't have driven back home to see her with no car keys or driver's license! I don't like Goodwill as a company and shop there because I Am Poor, but the employees here are very kind and I'm so grateful everyone worked together to help me find my bag.”
“I've had such good luck finding some fantastic treasures here!! You just never know what you're going to find unless you look at EVERYTHING!! I really like to take my time since not all items are in the correct sizes. Don't get me wrong, this store is clean and organized. Everything is sectioned off. The dressing rooms are easily accessible. Just make sure that you bring your own bags or boxes depending on what your planning on buying. Here's one of my treasures, it's from Victoria Secret Pink and it was $6.99!! I absolutely love it!!”

“Robert is an amazing person that actually made an impact in Elgin. He will be missed and hopefully the next person can focus on helping the community and getting everyone the correct help they need. Since he first showed up, I can see the great things he had done less in a year and also had showed the Latino community he is well trusted. Never seen salvation army this active since Robert the mayor came in and took over. Hopefully it can be maintained like that.”
“Best day is Monday. Unfortunately savers must think their donations are gold. They have started pricing way too high. A used tank top 7.99. Walmart brand new 7.99. ? I'm going for new”
“It was really nice. It was really clean. They had a lot of items. They had a lot of associates willing to help. They had a lot of business. It was pretty crowded. I went on a weekend”
“I think it was Ken and Anthony who found the books I mistakenly dropped off there. They were very nice and helpful. I really appreciate that they went above and beyond to help me. So often people do the minimum, it's great that the team at the hoffman estates goodwill does the maximum to provide their customers and donors with the best customer experience.”

“JP RESALE took care of my "big heavy baby" : cleaned, fixed, get the oil changed for $90. A job done and well done in a couple of hours! Thank you.#supportlocalbusiness”
“I popped in on a Thursday to try on some fancy dresses. The place is clean, very well organized and the prices !! Excellent! Everything that I saw was priced incredibly fair. Gorgeous intricate dresses for like $9. The staff was about four girls. They were super nice, friendly, and helpful .I felt welcomed. Seeing some of these reviews before I came in, I was expecting some pit of ghouls. Nope. Everyone was super kind and accommodating and cute as can be. Thanks for a great experience!”
“I found some neat stuff reminds me of the thrift store village discount outlet in Chicago before they became eBay Sellers and they this place has multiple discounts color's”
“Staff were very nice and polite. Some of the sizes that were listed were off, but you just have to check the size on clothes, not on the tag. However, the whole entire place was color coded and completely organized. You didn’t see a single clothing item in the dishes place or something. Great experience! Got lots of things. Overall, would recommend!”
