“Honestly, please ignore all those one star reviews! Screw them! Especially the ones regarding the bathroom it’s just blasphemy. Ultimate Treasures is not only an amazing antique & thrift store filled with ANYTHING you could ask for from couches to art to movies to books to clothes to even good condition used toiletries & cooking products even TJ’s brand olive oil well hell you name it… BUT it is an incredible first date idea (like guys- write this down)! You can go exploring down every aisle & always find something incredible & worthwhile! This store has so much to offer though seriously. So I mean ‘tis the season to bring your Valentine here & go find a relic that will last an era of romance & adoration! Ps if someone could please give the leather jacket that is so sick and says “Babe Squad” on the back a great home & then please post a review with a photo of you flaunting it I’d absolutely love that (I don’t have the confidence)! Anyways, just please please please if you don’t do anything else in Downers Grove, at least make a stop to Ultimate Treasures! It’s a life changing destination to add to your list. And maybe you’ll fall in love… who knows!”
“The Nicest people ever run this resale shop. Obviously since it’s resale, stock changed frequently. I Just attended their ribbon cutting at their new location and it’s fantastic! So easy to get to, a much easier space to shop in and they have more storage and sorting area, too. Please bring all your gently used goods to LRC!”
“This resale shop, conveniently located within the Good Sam hospital at Highland Ave, is an exceptional place to shop. It offers an impressive variety of items—almost everything one could think of—at remarkably reasonable prices. The staff’s conduct is professional, courteous, and welcoming, and the overall layout is clean, organized, and thoughtfully designed. A well-run shop that truly stands out for its quality, affordability, and presentation.”
“I found this place about five months ago, And I’m glad I did. The staff is very friendly. The merchandise is beautiful. The store is very clean and neat. It looks like a little boutique with very affordable prices. That’s my to go place. Thank you for supporting woman and families in need.”
“Love coming here! The staff is so friendly and engaging. I always find treasures when I stop in to look around. I'd rather shop here, where the proceeds go to support NAWS, than shop at national chains who are for profit.”
“Lovely little shop with nice variety and reasonable prices. A few men's clothes, women's, household/decor. Proceeds benefit the hospital (per the nice cashier lady I asked), such as something for the NICU, etc. There are always people unable to afford hospital bills; this is a creative way to help care for those in need.
Glad to have discovered this store!”
“A Hidden Gem in Downers Grove!
I absolutely love this Goodwill location—the design and layout make it feel like I’m shopping at Nordstrom! The atmosphere is clean, modern, and surprisingly upscale for a thrift store. The product selection is phenomenal, with everything from fashion and home goods to unique finds you won’t see anywhere else.
Prices are unbeatable, and the quality of items is consistently impressive. On top of that, the staff is friendly and helpful, which makes the shopping experience even better. Whether you're hunting for a designer piece or just browsing for fun, this store delivers.
Highly recommend checking it out—you might walk in looking for one thing and leave with a cart full of treasures!”
“Have only had decent experiences here. Really like that here are dressing rooms and volunteer staff have been helpful and kind. Shocked by the negative review. Hope people are able to see such good and donate accordingly. The nonprofit is real they support & they have helped us as well.”
“I was in another place and my daughter had an accident but of course it was the one time I didn’t bring clothes with and boy was I glad this store was next door. I was able to walk right in and to the section I needed. Line was a bit long but backup was called immediately”
“I frequent this location quite a bit, the floor staff leaves a lot to be desired but the check out staff are delightful, not to mention patient with the customers.”
“VERY WELL ORGANIZED, clean, the staff was very helpful, and I had a good time hunting for fun stuff. I found some throwback jeans!!!
If you are a "thrifter", this is a fun store....and... you are contributing to a great cause. Thank you, Goodwill !”
“Went to this Goodwill store first time on Friday with my daughter and we loved it. Employees were friendly could be a little more proactive (training 101) but my sales rep was awesome and she offered me a rewards card to use for future items. It was nice to see that 'Everything had a place, and a Place for everything' nothing on the floors. However, I do suggest they keep a close eye on some of the clothing on the racks that have threadingloose some were torn seems like from hangers or mishandled from customers and those items should be removed. It is good to see that you show the quality and care for what you display and sale in your store because, it's the first and last impression of the day that can make an impact on your customers. I visit this store again.”
“I’ve frequented the Crest Hill store on many occasions, to both sell and shop. I was actually very impressed with the quality of items and how well the store is organized and arranged. The employees have always been very friendly and helpful, offering any assistance and helping me load and unload my car when needed. I understand how the buying process works and have always been satisfied with the $$ received on my items. It’s easy and quick cash so it beats just giving it away or going through the agony of a garage sale. I appreciate that they truly take the time and effort to diligently look up every item to make sure they are offering you a fair price while keeping the item at a cost where they can still turn around and sell it at a large discount back to the public. The owners Dave & Tina take great pride in their stores and it shows with their commitment to providing the best customer service and quality of items. I will definitely continue shopping and selling to New Uses!”
“I go to the two dollar sale. It is awesome. You just gotta be careful and look at everything you buy make sure there’s no stains or holes or anything else because it is a used clothes store so but besides that they are awesome. I would shop there anytime.”

“Contrary to the negative perception of this location, I thought the prices were reasonable for the quality of the clothes. I got a Forever 21 denim skirt with no tears/damage for 5$ - just make sure to wash the clothes after purchasing and wash your hands as well - but if you are buying clothes, remember to look at the seams and any zippers, etc.”
“I really liked this store. Tons of variety. Great prices. I hate even giving this review because I feel like I'm giving away my secret favorite new place to shop. Hahaha”
