“We donated to them, but had a chance to see the retail operation. Higher end gently used clothing and household goods, and priced accordingly. We gave them 6 prom dresses and matching shoes, among other things. Similar, nice quality dresses were priced around $40. Definitely worth a look!”

“My family and I love this place! It’s a large thrift store with many different areas to explore, including a large warehouse with tons of vintage furniture. There is a nice selection of clothing, housewares, books, and more. Prices are often more affordable than other thrift stores. I love checking out the vintage linens to find affordable fabric for sewing projects.”

“We went to Lambs Farm with our grandchildren. We had so much fun feeding hay to the goats, sheep, horses, cows and llama. The animals are so tame and very well cared for. The girls had a great time. We also played mini golf. The mini golf course needs a little sprucing up but still fun. Great time had by all. We did not go to the thrift shop as this heading states, just the Farm area.”

“This was the first time I went there with friends. It was a spacious clean place. Everything was organized. They have vintage modern you name it. The furniture is reasonably priced . They have kitchen beautiful kitchen ware books toys and of course cloths. I bought a plaque a pair of earrings and comfy pants. There was plenty of parking. They have a reward program with phone number. Today wS 25% off . Thursday senior discount 20% I will most certainly go back again. Checking out was easy with friendly staff. I washed the cloths because that's what I do but they were hung and wrinkled . Great job”

“Great thrift shop. Very random in objects acquired/donated, but interesting enough that it's part of my circuit of places to visit. Usually walk away with at least one thing per visit, or the desire to. Which is more than most thrift stores I visit anymore.”

“First of many visits! They sell all sorts of things besides inexpensive beautiful and good quality clothing: books, kitchen, bath, car and body care, even some electronics. And the best of all, the staff is wonderful! The ladies are super helpful. I honestly left feeling like I left yoga class or therapy.”

“Great place!! The Salvation Army in general as an organization truly does help people in the struggle. I don't think people realize the Salvation Army is more than just a set thrift stores. In my time of need SA was there to help me in my battles.”

“Super late review. Maybe out of date. For what it's worth though, I had an old box of random Star Trek memorabilia from when I was younger. Several years ago brought it to Net Sells It to see what they could do. They also said, well, some will probably sell. Some probably not. Let's see. They did a single round of listing the stuff that was sellable, kept their (and eBay's) fair share for the work, and think I still got a couple hundred bucks out of it? Only about half the stuff sold, so had to go back and pick up the rest eventually. At the time I recall thinking it all seemed like a fair deal. I surely could have gotten more if I did it myself. Point is I didn't wanna though, lol. Lot of futzing around making posts and shipping and stuff. I'd use them again if I had more than a few things I needed help with. Nice to see stuff get to people who might still want it, and maybe keep a few bucks in the process.”

“Been reviewing the Goodwills in the area as I am new to thrifting and this one was huge! Very orderly and alot to choose from. I went on a Saturday too! Overall I was please at the prices and the amount of "Useful" items they had! Got some good deals. I will definitely be back. Good job as some of the other stores I have visited recently were not kept well and a bit junky. Took off 1 star for being a little cluttered without any staff organizing(would help), in some areas and having to purchase bags.”

“It's a thrift store and it can be hit or miss because all I of their products are donated. So you have to visit often for a better odd of finding what you're looking for. They have instituted daily color coded discounts but still have senior discount Wednesdays every week. They always have a large selection of jeans. Didn't find many coats available today.”

“I've been coming to this Salvation Army as long as I can remember. It is huge they have a wide variety of clothing for everyone from infants to adults. They've rearranged things and I like the new flow of the store. I do wish that they would spruce it up a little. Either the roof is leaking or the floors like super dirty. The downside of them having a lot of clothes to choose from is that they don't have a fitting room. Clothes don't always look the same on your body when you see it on a hanger. Hopefully they decided to create a space for this. I love the prices here you feel like you're getting a bargain and it makes looking for things fun. It's color coded and length and style coded which makes life easier if you have an idea of what you'd like. They have a wide variety of furniture, bedding, electronics, and miscellaneous. There is a lot to see. My pet peeve is when I find something I like but it doesn't have price tag on it and then when you ask for a price they take it and say something along the lines of it shouldn't have been out or they aren't sure and there's no one to ask so they don't sell it to you. It's frustrating. I do like there shoe room plenty of good shoes for a great price. Also pay attention to the deal of the week or day. Already cheap prices, cheaper? Can't go wrong there.”
