Helping Hand Thrift Store is a fabulous and cute little gem. It is extremely organized with a huge variety of items, including clothing, glassware, books, furniture, decor, and just about everything you can imagine. The prices are great, fair, and good, with a wide selection. The staff provides great customer service and is super nice. The store uses every inch of space efficiently, though it is tight in some areas. They have a free rewards program and accept donations during operating hours. It is a picker's paradise with great deals, and customers will definitely be back.
I enjoy stopping in, you never know what you will find. Filling a bag for $5.00 in awesome!
I also stop at The Back Porch Thrift store, The Giving Tree, and Nice Tice Thrift shop when I am in Waterloo, 4 stores within minutes of each other ...its worth my 30 minute drive for some bargains ❤️😊

They have great prices and friendly staff. Everyday is $5 fill a bag (clothes) unless otherwise marked. And they really stuff the bags too!!😁 Really good selection of other things from art to glassware to tools and furniture. Also they have a rewards program which doesn't take long to get free things.
