Encore Thrift Store: Empowering the Community, One Treasure at a Time Welcome to Encore Thrift Store, Clinton, IL's leading thrift destination since 2010. Encore's mission is to provide opportunities for personal growth and meaningful employment to individuals with disabilities while serving the community with affordable treasures. Their team members receive valuable job training and employment, gaining wages, vocational skills, and building lasting social connections. The employees excel in customer service, organizing and stocking merchandise, maintaining cleanliness, and managing the cash register. Encore offers an extensive range of furniture, hardware, household goods, antiques, clothing, jewelry, toys, and more. Customers can explore the store's vast warehouse, filled with an impressive selection of merchandise. While the shopping conditions can be challenging, with the warehouse sometimes smelling of mouse urine and experiencing extreme temperatures, the low prices make up for the inconvenience. Despite some inconsistencies in pricing due to the store's attempt to research items online, Encore remains a beloved thrift destination in the area. Customers praise the friendly and personable staff, the wide variety of items, and the store's focus on supporting the local community. Every purchase at Encore Thrift Store helps empower the workforce and contributes to the store's continued success.
Plan to spend over an hour here. So much to look at. Organized, a big selection, and wonderful customer service. I got a punch card with my purchase today! Can't wait to go back.
